Moran is a rock band from Tokyo, Japan that was founded in December 2007 and started activities in March 2008.

The band’s current lineup consisted of Hitomi (aka Sanaka/Kanoma, ex-Fatima) on vocals, SIZNA (ex-Ｓｕｇａｒ) on guitar, and Soan (aka Towa, ex-Fatima) on drums. Originally the band had Zill on bass (aka Saburo, ex-Kurt) and Velo (aka Takumi) on guitar.

On November 2009, guitarist, Velo, officially decided to leave after Moran’s last oneman tour before their hiatus, 「Freeze」. In 2010, with the 3 remaining members, Moran played a few shows as a session band under the name Freeze. In the middle of the year, they had planned to make a comeback from their hiatus with a new guitarist, SIZNA, and started writing new material. However, bassist Zill suddenly passed away on July 23. On August 20, SIZNA’s birthday, Moran officially announced that SIZNA has joined as a new permanent member. Moran officially “unfreezes” from their hiatus on December 24, 2010, marked with their oneman live, titled,「Awake」. On March 23, 2011, the band will release a mini-album of new and previously unreleased songs composed by Zill, titled, 「Apples」.

    They also play another unreleased song called "rub". Hope they put it on a release soon! I remember reading a setlist in some magazine (CURE, I think?) that listed a few others, like "nun" and "shinkaigyo". Those might have been renamed, though.

    omg thank you @Portisha! :D btw, you know what Moran song I'm really curious about? "Manicure"! I THINK it was composed by Velo, so they never record it in the end, but they still play it live all the time apparently.

    All their releases are way too good to be true. [3] ALIENS.[2] which explains why Hitomi doesn't seem to age at all... btw @sasayaku, I'd love to be able to rip the videos they post in their site, but dunno how (._.)
