Kiryu

Kiryu promoting "Ruru" (2010)

Kiryu (己龍) is a five-piece Japanese rock band in the visual-kei scene from Tokyo. They formed sometime in September of 2007, though it wasn't until December that they had any official activities. Kiryu came together under the band concept of "Tsuuzetsu Nostalgic" (痛絶ノスタルジック), which they take to mean traditional Japanese aesthetics in modern contexts, and in turn it describes both their visuals and music. The band is signed with the independent label B.P RECORDS.
