Merry promoting single Gekisei (2008)

Merry or Merii (メリー) is an eroguro band on Victor Entertainment that was formed by Gara (ex-After Effect) and Yuu (ex-Shiver) in October 2001. Their style of music is very catchy ranging from hard rock to beautiful ballads, and lately mix jazz, swing and rock n' roll. The group's appearance in terms of costume and make-up is usually dark (suits and smeared make-up), but lately they've cut down on the smeared make-up. They have an alter-ego personality called Super Merries. Merry's 1st full album gendai stoic was released under Kiyoharu's FULLFACE RECORDS.
