Despre Ei

D'espairsRay is a visual kei band formed in 1999 by Hizumi, and Tsukasa from Le'veil, Karyu from Diur Mind, and Zero. They have a darker apperance than most Visual Kei bands, and a very different sound than most Japanese and American Bands. D'espairsRay have never changed their lineup as of August 2008, and for the most part have kept true to their visual roots. D'espairsRay was one of the first and few J-Rock bands to venture overseas to America.

Although they have been consistantly Heavy Metal, more recently their material has become lighter and move varied. Hizumi has commented on D'espairsRays lyrics and is quoted as saying

"What we do with our music is to convey entrapment. Through our sound, we want to express how sometimes we are in situations where we want to escape; we want to be free."

-Hizumi quoted from an LieTV interview

In response to what makes them feel intraped, they said. . .

"Things that haunt your past and future"

-Hizumi quoted by LieTV
