Debut song of a 90s visual kei band

A visual kei band that revolutionized the Japanese music scene with their innovative musicality and glamorous looks.

Even major artists that everyone knows today—such as GLAY, L’Arc~en~Ciel, and DIR EN GREY—once took their very first steps as newcomers.

While influenced by X JAPAN, each established a uniquely rich musical identity and forged a new era.

Here, we introduce the debut songs that became their starting point, hidden behind the bold makeup and costumes.
