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.

Finally someone mentioned the top 15 tracks crisis! Whenever I get bored, I like to look at them. Sometimes I see Journey through the Decade and GHOST only. People must give the anniversary tracks more love, seriously.

joyfulblue - OMG YOUR YURI GIF X_X. haha. and i realised something, why does the top 15 songs not even contain a single song released from 2009? i guess the old songs are just too awesome for people.

"rabid fangirls running in a anime like typhoon" LOL! the imagery! Yeah, I don't think there really is a point to changing it...we all know who he is....and it's not such a drastic change (like if he changed it into kanji or kana form). I think we and the charts will survive with leaving it the way it is.

When I see "GACKT" all in caps, I think of rabid fangirls running in a anime like typhoon after the guy. I, personally, don't care how his name is said, spelled, etc... I'm keeping my tags like I have 'em. Sorry.

I love how every japanese musician's page has to be capitalised right. There's just so much more class about Gackt. GACKT looks like it should be sprayed on a wall.

I agree with Sukiru, the name is GACKT and not Gackt anymore. Everyone must have figured out the reason by now, the 10th anniversary. I did request at the forums back in September for a change, but it seems no one is taking care of the requests.

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.
