Josef Pavka founded a group in 1982, which they named Argema, after an African tropical butterfly. It started on the waves of metal, over time the work became closer and closer to the mainstream. From the beginning, the band balanced on the border of the strict orders of the previous regime, they were forced to prove to the then officials what the name Argema even represents, because at that time they were English, event. foreign, band names forbidden. The first album, released in 1988, was banned by censors and the album cover was confiscated. It took several years for founding member Josef Pavka to find a new way for his ensemble.

Argema has been and still is unprecedentedly active in releasing albums. Since 1993, at least one new sound carrier has been published annually. The band gave more and more concerts, appeared in the media, won Gold and Platinum records for the sale of albums, and regularly placed in the top twenty of the Český slavík poll. The clips won the then popular ESO television chart.
