Formed in September 2007 under the concept of “painfully nostalgic”. The band consistently adheres to the theme of “Japanese horror” with its glittering costumes, traditional Japanese elements in the production, and sounds that incorporate Japanese instruments. Kurosaki Mahiro’s distinctive singing voice with intonation is another attraction.
The performance on September 19, 2019, the final day of Kiryu’s solo tour of “tender sentiments,” featured Hideki Onoe (Chuzao Shamisen), Akihisa Kominato (Shakuhachi), Shin Ichikawa (Koto), and Naosaburo Bihou (Taiko) in addition to the band members, making this the first collaboration in Kiryu’s history to feature live Japanese instrumental performances for all songs.
Kujo Takemasa(Gu.) has suspended his activities in the form of appearing on stage after the 14th anniversary performance of the birth of Kiryu on December 16, 2021. He has announced that he will be involved in Kiryu’s activities in a non-appearing way, such as composing Kiryu’s music. They will celebrate their 15th anniversary in 2022. On December 15, “The Fifteenth Anniversary of Kiryu’s Birth” will be held at the Tokyo Garden Theater.

来場者、視聴者共に御疲れ様。
神経を常に張り巡らせ続きの二日間でしたが、思いの丈や其の姿勢を多少なりとも感じて頂けたので在れば幸いです。
巻き起こる拍手が意外に心地の良いものに感じられた。
今は本当其れ丈で僕は十分です。
誠に有難う御座いました。 pic.twitter.com/SzaahElzQS
