I really love this band especially their music. I came to know about them when I heard the song "Kiri". It was the OP song for the anime Ergo Proxy, which I also enjoy watching. At first I thought it was a foreign band (my friend thought it was Nirvana when she heard their songs) but was surprised to find that they are Japanese. Because they speak English fluently and their style is, I could say, influenced by Western rock music scene. Well anyway, I hope more people will like and listen to this great band because they are
