[edit] Rewrite

This article should be rewritten or possibly even deleted, because almost all of the content is a copy-and-paste job from last.fm's wiki (and also this page). I would nominate it for speedy deletion if I thought there was an actual copyright on that page, but as it stands, this is not an issue of copyright, only one of no thought and poor editing. -- Omicronpersei8 23:06, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

• Major re-write and re-formatting. First paragraph is taken from the Japanese wiki page. Moved all the data regarding Oricon chart hits to a table like other artists have. I tried to clean up the rest of the artcle to make it a more enjoyable read, and leave in some of the interesting information. Denaar 20:14, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

I restored Deenar's rewrite. I think it is mainly quite objective information. Some bits of it may be rewritten/removed, like this paragraph: "Musically the essence of the band sound was extracted from the three pilliars of "Dark, Hard, and Melodious". Their sound is characterized by Kouichi's unique chord processions and aki's transparent high-pitched vocals. The band is considered to be under the sub-categories of black suit kei and nagoya kei.". The discography/singles sections may be improved too. However, the biographical information about the band is good. -xDCDx (talk) 01:26, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
