Japan (1999 – present)

Gackt (神威楽斗, Kamui Gakuto）is a singer, songwriter, model, designer, actor, author, poet and multi-instrumentalist (piano, guitar, violin, drums, bass, trumpet, tuba, french horn, trombone, and so on…) famous in Japan. Since the launch of his solo career, he has gained an even greater fandom and notoriety than he had while working as the vocalist of the iconic gothic-victorian band MALICE MIZER, and has been extremely successful.

His career ‘began’ when he and his friend You formed the band CAINS:FEEL with Gackt as the drummer and eventually on vocals. His career began to truly blossom when he joined the band MALICE MIZER. Though his true reasons for later leaving MALICE MIZER remain a mystery it is rumored he left because he wasn’t allowed to assist in writing/composing the music as much as he wanted to. In 1999 he went to begin a solo career with a band he calls GacktJOB.

Gackt’s talents include composing all of his music and writing all of his lyrics. He can also play nine different instruments: the piano, guitar, bass guitar, drums, trumpet, tuba, trombone, horn, and euphonium. In 2003, Gackt co-wrote and co-starred in the movie MOON CHILD alongside HYDE of L’Arc~en~Ciel. He was the model for the protagonist of the video game Bujingai and more recently a mysterious character known as ‘Genesis’ in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

What the hell is up with the title "Stay the Decade Alive"?! Shouldn't that be "Keep the Decade Alive"? Oh well, if it's gonna be anything like The Next Decade then I'll like it.

The delay of the live tour DVD is a little bit disappointing, but there's RE:BORN. It won't only contain previous songs, but also ЯRⅡ versions of Jesus, No Reason, Sayonara and Flower.

He could release an entire album just using the singles he's released this year... [3[ He is...it's called RE:BORN. It's got every song from Nov. 08 to the most recent single (excluding themes like JttD and TND). Lovely photo btw.

Why is there a picture of Gackt holding a chainsaw? Is he thinking about doing horror movies or something? We know he can act, so...

It's so hard waiting for Zan/Setsugekka [5] Seriously, he must try making 2 PVs for the next single which no one's ever tried before. ZAN and Setsugekka all sound the best.
