was a Japanese visual kei gothic metal band formed in 2002 by Kaworu, Daiki, Uri, Amare, and Death.[1] [2] Guitarist Death soon left and was replaced by Teru. Amare left the group after their first single and was replaced by Takamasa, whom left himself in 2005. Shagrath took his place, but the band suffered a car accident in 2006 which left most of its members seriously injured. Though most of them recovered, drummer Uri was never able to play decently again. Since the band did not have the intention of carrying on without him, they announced their end in 2007.[2]
