The band was formed in 2014 under the name "Coldsight" by Florent Salfati and Nicolas Soriano. Salfati, who was originally planned as the guitarist, was also at the time the founding vocalist of the band Hate in Front. After the search for a suitable lead singer was not successful, Salfati found himself taking in the position of the vocalist. By this time, the band's formation was nearly complete, with Rudy Purkart (bassist) and Thomas Lebreton (guitarist). After Salfati became the vocalist of the band, Nicolas Exposito took over as the second guitarist and changed their name to "Landmarks".
In 2015, the band performed at Deadbolt Festival in Manchester, UK. Shortly after, they changed the spelling of their name to "Landmvrks".
After the band mostly produced singles in the early years of their career, they released their self-produced debut album Hollow on May 10, 2016. In the same year, the band performed at Hellfest for the first time. The performance was recorded and released as a live album, Live at Hellfest (EP).
In 2018, the band signed a record deal with German label Arising Empire and would release their second album, Fantasy under the label on May 2, 2018. On January 7, 2019, it was announced that Drummer and Founding Member Nicolas Soriano had left the band, with Kévin D'Agostino replacing him on Drums shortly after his departure.
In 2019, the band toured Europe with Any Given Day and in Japan, opening for Polaris. A European tour was scheduled to take place in 2020 but had to be postponed for a year due to the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the associated global COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2021, the band released their third album Lost in the Waves. It reached a chart placement in the German album charts at number 17. The band would release a deluxe version of the album on March 18, 2022, titled Lost in the Waves (The Complete Edition). This edition includes live versions of some of their tracks as well as three new tracks featuring duets with Anthony Dijorio (also known as Drew York) of Stray From The Path, Bertrand Poncet of Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! and Anthony Diliberto of Resolve.
In the fall of 2022, they toured the United States with Miss May I.
