A Japanese band that formed in 2004 and kept making music after their bassist left in 2011.
If you want the classic vibe, 'Akatsuki' from 2007 is the track. For something later, try 'Mirror Ball' from their top songs list.
They were part of Japan's visual kei scene when it was still a distinct movement, not just a retro reference. Songs like 'Mirror Ball' and 'Akatsuki' have that specific mid-2000s visual kei sound, big, melodic rock with theatrical flair. For anyone tracking that era, their catalog is a solid chapter.
Alice Nine formed in 2004 and put out their debut album 'Zekkeishoku' two years later. Bassist Saga left in 2011, but the rest of the lineup kept recording.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
