'''Penicillin''' was formed in 1992 by Chisato (on guitar), O-JIRO (bass), and Gisho (vocals), with the final fourth member, Hakuei, joining a year later. After Hakuei joined, the line-up changed to Hakuei on vocals, Gisho on bass, and O-JIRO on drums. That is how the lineup has remained ever since. All of the members are also high school buddies. The band began in the Visual-Kei category, their dress being a little haphazard. Hakuei and O-JIRO generally dressed the part of girls, Hakuei normally being outrageous in fur and leather while O-JIRO played the "sweet girl." Gisho and Chisato were generally more masculine. Around 1998, the "image" Penicillin had changed from being so feminine like before, losing the heavy makeup (and in Hakuei's case, outrageous, extravagant outfits). Their first release was Penicillin Shock in 1994, which in fact was produced by Kiyoshi of Spread Beaver. From then on they rose in popularity, releasing eight albums in eight years (an album a year, in otherwords). In 1996, all of the members did side solo-projects. Gisho became Ohtaki Jun, O-JIRO formed 808, Hakuei started his fruitful solo career and teamed up with Kiyoshi to form machine, in 1999, and Chisato started his own solo career. Penicillin's latest single was Freesia and their latest album has been Flower Circus.

Information

Penicillin was formed in 1992 by Chisato (on guitar), O-JIRO (bass), and Gisho (vocals), with the final fourth member, Hakuei, joining a year later. After Hakuei joined, the line-up changed to Hakuei on vocals, Gisho on bass, and O-JIRO on drums. That is how the lineup has remained ever since. All of the members are also high school buddies. The band began in the Visual-Kei category, their dress being a little haphazard. Hakuei and O-JIRO generally dressed the part of girls, Hakuei normally being outrageous in fur and leather while O-JIRO played the "sweet girl." Gisho and Chisato were generally more masculine. Around 1998, the "image" Penicillin had changed from being so feminine like before, losing the heavy makeup (and in Hakuei's case, outrageous, extravagant outfits). Their first release was Penicillin Shock in 1994, which in fact was produced by Kiyoshi of Spread Beaver. From then on they rose in popularity, releasing eight albums in eight years (an album a year, in otherwords). In 1996, all of the members did side solo-projects. Gisho became Ohtaki Jun, O-JIRO formed 808, Hakuei started his fruitful solo career and teamed up with Kiyoshi to form machine, in 1999, and Chisato started his own solo career. Penicillin's latest single was Freesia and their latest album has been Flower Circus.
