GAZETTE IS A JAPANESE VISUAL KEI BAND !
Biography
In March of 2002, Ruki, Uruha, and Reita (all former band mates), and Aoi and Yune (also former band mates) formed a band under the name Gazette.[2] Originally signed to Matina, they released their first single, "Wakaremichi", and a video release in April. By September they had released two more singles and another video, headlining a show for the first time in October.
In early 2003, Yune decided to leave the band, and he was replaced by Kai. Shortly after, they signed with the PS Company label, and in May released their first EP, Cockayne Soup. They started their first tour, with the band Hanamuke, and along with the tour, the bands collaborated on two songs. A second tour followed with the band Vidoll, and the bands were featured together on the November issue of Cure, a magazine focusing on Visual Kei bands.[3]
In early December they played a co-headlining show with Deadman. On December 28 they performed at Fool's Mate magazine's Beauti-fool's Fest which was later released on DVD.
On January 16, 2004 they recorded a solo performance at the Shibuya-AX, which was released on DVD as Tokyo saihan ~Judgement Day~.[2] On March 30, 2004 they released their Madara mini-album, which reached #2 on the Oricon Indie Charts. Madara was followed in May by a companion DVD, which included six music videos and an in-the-studio documentary. The same month, Gazette was featured in Shoxx magazine's Expect Rush III, a catalogue of independent Visual Kei artists.[4] A second live DVD, Heisei Banka, was released in August.[2] During September and October they toured with fellow PS Company bands Kra and BIS. Their debut album, Disorder, was released in October, and made it to the top 5 of the indies Oricon Daily Charts.
The band spent the remainder of 2004 and 2005 touring extensively, releasing Gama (another mini album) in August.
In 2005 the band released their first major label single, Cassis, in December.[5]
Starting 2006 with a name change—from Japanese characters to a romanized script—they released Nil, their second full-length album, on February 8, 2006,[2] and embarked on another Japanese tour, ending at the venue Nippon Budokan.[6] That July, The Gazette performed at the Beethovenhalle in Bonn, Germany, their first show outside of Asia. The concerts were arranged in conjunction with the AnimagiC anime and manga convention.[7]
Three more singles were released followed by another studio album, Stacked Rubbish on July 4, 2007. It reached #2 on the Oricon charts within a day from the release. The album debut was followed by a promotional tour from July through September. In October, The Gazette started their first European tour stopping England, Finland, France, and Germany.
A new single called "Guren" was released on February 13, 2008.

Despre "The Gazette"
MEMBRI:Ruki [VOCALIST]
Uruha [CHITARIST]
Aoi [CHITARIST]
Reita [BASIST]
Kai [TOBOSAR]
Ok deci sa o luam cu inceputul. The Gazette este o trupa japoneza de rock si apartine stilului visual "Visual Kei".
S-a infiintat in 2002 cand Uruha , Reita si Ruki s-au hotarat sa isi infiinteze propria trupa. Asa i-au intalnit pe Aoi si Yune care au devenit imediat noii membri ai trupei. Impreuna au lansat (Aprilie 2002) primul lor single Wakaremichi.
In 2003 insa Yune a decis sa paraseasca The Gazette , consecinta a acestei actiuni a fost actualul drummer Kai , ale carui abilitati i-au facut pe ceilalti sa il lase sa se ocupe de conducerea trupei . Tot In 2003 , in luna martie , acum cu o noua structura formatia a obtinut un contract la Ps Company pornind astfel pe drumul unei lungi calatorii.
Asadar in mai 2003 au lansat primul lor Mini Album Cockayne Soup prin care si-au inceput primul turneu alaturi de trupa Hanamuke (Impreuna au scos si 2 cantece).Imediat dupa aceasta colaborare a urmat si un al-2-lea turneu alaturi de Vidoll , acesta fiind un inceput glorios pentru baieti , deoarece a fost momentul in care reviste de renume precum "Cure", "Shoxx" au inceput sa scrie despre ei , aproape in fiecare numar.
Pe 30 martie 2004 , urmeaza lansarea unui al-2-lea mini album Madara , care ajunge sa ocupe locul 2 in Oricon Indie Charts iar pe 25 august Concert DvD Heisei Banka.
Imediat dupa lansarea acestui DvD, apare pe piata muzica PV-DVD Madara , care contine 6 PV-uri , inclusiv makig ofs.
Desi viitorul pare sa surada baietii erau inca foarte tineri si aveau sa intalneasca multe obstacole in drumul lor spre glorie. Bineinteles ca orice artist nu are numai fani , ci si anti-fani , gurile rele au inceput sa vorbeasca si bineinteles ca nimeni nu este scutit de un esec live sau o defectiune tehnica.
Nimic nu i-a retinut insa sa mearga mai departe The Gazette lansand pe 13 octombrie 2004 primul ALBUM DISORDER , listat in top 5 in Oricon DAILY Charts.
Numeroasele concerte ce au urmat , succesul mini albumelor si single-urilor precum : Gama si Cassis i-a determinat pe Ruki,Reita,Uruha,Aoi si Kai creearea celui de-al doi-lea ALBUM FULL Nil , pe 8 februarie 2006, Album promovat in turneul Road Of Nameless Liberty Six Guns.
Gazette nu s-au limitat insa numai la concerte in Asia , ei uimind insa si fanii din Europa , tari precum Germania,Anglia,Franta,Austria,Finlanda. Acestea sunt tarile frecventate de ei , dar asta nu inseamna ca in celelalte tari nu exista poate la fel de multi , sau poate chiar mai multi fani.
Asa sa revenim , urmeaza turneul Decomposition Beauty , care promoveaza 3 single-uri noi Filth In the beauty,Hyena si Regret .

THIS IS A PETITION MADE BY ROMANIAN FANS IN ORDER TO BRING GAZETTE TO ROMANIA !!!
______________Romana_______________
Ok fanelor/fanilor ! S-ar putea ca visul nostru sa fie putin indraznet , aproape imposibil tinand cont de tara in care inca ne aflam. Se pare ca acest stil vizual si gen de muzica p care multi il iubim va avea un lung drum de parcurs inainte sa fie mediatizat si in primul rand acceptat!
Insa acest proces de acceptare are nevoie d un avant! Revistele au inceput in proportii mici sa acorde o pagina doua sau un poster diferitelor trupe Visual Kei , deasemeni datorita eforturilor noastre prin mail-uri....etc!
Asa ca de ce sa nu incercam sa tintim exact la sursa !!!
Ok so petitia aceasta are ca scop : Aducerea trupei Gazette in Romania , nu conteaza ca maine , peste un an sau 5 , scopul ei este sa ii aduca aici indiferent de imprejurimi!
So haideti sa fim uniti/unite si sa obtinem cat mai multe voturi... Speranta moare ultima! Sa fim uniti/e ce ziceti??
Ok so cat despre trimiterea petitiei voi incerca din rasputeri sa o mediatizez si cand vom strange destul voturi voi avea nevoie si de ajutorul vostru sa o trimitem impreuna pe blogurile,siteurile oficiale.... Hai sa o incercam si p'asta ce ziceti????
Ok observatii : Dati-va date reale , sa facem treaba cat mai serios,dati un comment sustinator si promiteti ca veniti la concert daca reusim ceva ^_^ ...... XD
