miyabi is a guy..XD XD
erm..info? let's see what i can remember..^^
aliene ma'riage: the band's name is derived from french, meaning 'demented marriage'. the members are Mast(guitar), Kyouka(vocals) and Ray(bass). they have this duo4 luo4/decadent kind of visual rock image and their songs and lyrics are really, really dark but beautiful. the way kyouka sings is...0_o; it's amazing how he can sing so well, with so much emotion, yet scream at the same time. i'm impressed. ^_^ on stage during concerts, Mast plays the princess, Ray is the prince, and Kyouka is Mast and Ray's evil, insane son. ^^ they have released 2 cds that i know of(might have released more, but i dunno..^^), namely 'Les Soiree' and 'Ma'ria'. they have incredibly cool, gothic songs...somewhat like malice mizer during the tetsu/early gackt era.
syndrome: ahh, i love this band...so pretty. *^^* the members are Tatsuya(vocals), Kisaki(bass), Ruiza(lead guitar), Ken(rhythm guitar) and Shion(drums). their leader is the beautiful and talented bassist Kisaki, quite an influential person in the world of visual rock. he's the president of Matina, the indie visual rock record label (*_*..), and before forming syndrome he led this visual rock band called Mirage(who were also excellent). even before that he was the bassist of La:Sadie's, which later became dir en grey. ^_^ the other members...Tatsuya and Ken were both in another band called Crescent before joining syndrome. Ruiza and Shion were in this band called Laybial. they can do almost ANY type of music, and do it well, too. they're really polished and versatile, taking on pop-rockish songs like 'namida no kagen' as well as the violent, dark, hard rock songs in their 'Sosei' album. i've heard from some people that their lives are great..^^ never been to one myself, so i can't tell you much about that. ^^ hmm...syndrome is one of the more popular indies visual rock bands.
the piass: very scary-looking visual band. ^^ (just LOOK at all the blood...>< ) the members are Kirala(vocals), Takayuki(guitar), Ruiji(bass) and Shizuki(drums). they've been around for...6 years? ^^ first formed in 1995, their original lineup is completely different from their lineup now except for the leader, Takayuki. they...erm, disappeared for a while from 1996-1997 for a break and returned in 1998 with this current lineup.
music-wise, they're one of the most aggressive-sounding visual bands i've ever heard. ^^ it's somewhat like very fast, hard punk-metal...very frenetically-paced. >< the drumming and the guitars are extremely fast yet retain a good rhythm. Kirala screams a lot. ^^ most of the music is written by Takayuki, whereas the lyrics are penned by Kirala. this band is noisy, but good. ^_^
jakura: hmm... not very sure about this band. in chinese, the name jakura is 'que4 luo2'. the members are: asuya(vocals), kamiyu(guitars), mikoto(guitars), yuu(bass) and seika(drums). kamiyu was in the band Kresh end before he joined jakura.
^^;; i hope this was of help ne~ *^^*
