Greed wurde 1995 von Frank Altpeter (Vox, Guitar), Michael Bruss (Bass), Kai Kessler (Drums) and Kay Regitz (Guitar, Backing Vocals) in Illingen (Saar) gegründet. Der anfängliche Sound war stark von 80er-Jahre Gitarrenrock à la The Smiths beeinflusst, jedoch erstreckte sich das musikalische Spektrum deutlich in eine Alternative-lastige, härtere Ecke. Bereits 1997 vervollständigte Timo Brück (Keyboards und Samplers) die Band. 1999 wurde das dritte selbstproduzierte Album „Super“ veröffentlicht, das schnell ausverkauft war und im Vergleich zu den vorangegangenen Veröffentlichungen „I'm Eating my Head“ (1997) und „Famous“ (1998) eine deutlich härtere, erwachsenere Gangart präsentierte, ohne jedoch die melodischen Wurzeln zu verleugnen.

Die intensive Konzerttätigkeit, auch mit national bekannten Bands wie Such a Surge und Cultured Pearls, brachte eine gewisse lokale Bekanntheit. Die Band wurde im Jahr 2003 aufgelöst.

Seit November 2008 proben Greed in der Urbesetzung wieder.
