the GazettE, a japanese rock / visual kei band, call themselves 平成の異端児集団 (a heresy for their generation). Forming in 2002 under the name ガゼット , they were recognized for their first release, wakaremichi, and held their first live March 10 of that year. The band always tries to keep originality within their compositions, creating a unique sound by mixing different music styles together.
With eccentric costumes, original ideas, and a strong sound to their music, they are considered one of the most remarkable artists in the visual music scene.
the GazettE was originally signed with the Matina label, but during March 2003, they switched over to the PS Company record label - right after replacing their original drummer ユネ (Yune) , with ex-drummer of Mareydi†Creia’, 戒 (Kai).
Their 4th studio album, DIM, came out on the 15th July 2009.
Current line-up consists of:
◆Vocals ルキ (Ruki)
◆Guitar 麗 (Uruha)
◆Guitar 葵 (Aoi)
◆Bass れいた (Reita)
◆Drums 戒 (Kai)

"Starting 2006 with a name change—from Japanese characters to a romanized script—they released Nil"

NIL loads into iTunes with the ガゼット tag. So I guess everything that came afterwards.

As far as I know, they only released Wakaremichi and two other singles by the name ガゼット. Everything after those should belong here, so since the release of Cockayne Soup. And I didn't hear anything about them touring anywhere out of Japan, so they won't go to Spain in the near future.

I prefer tag the GazettE :P hotsw4p, I didn't say anything about costumes and make-up. I agree that it's part of their perfomance but I meant if they're handsome or not :D If person says "Aoi is kawaii", it doesn't say anything about his costume or performance. So it looks like that person watches it only because that artist is handsome... Anyway, I started liking them because of that energy you wrote about. ;D

the costumes/appearance are part of the "performance", it's not just about the music for them when they do lives, it's the whole energy between them, the music and their fans. They want to be expressive and share their energy and that's how they express it. I personally feel that, while visual kei may be a "fad" in the sense of being popular to a large group of people, in the right hands it is also a powerful extension of their music and makes them that much greater. I think ガゼット is one of those powerful bands :))))

snaigute: I must agree. ;D I think the most important thing is their music not appearance because it's just a temporary thing. In my opinion music is immortal. ;D
