Biography
Rentrer en Soi formed in early to mid 2001, with the original line up of Satsuki (vo), Takumi (gu), Ao (gu) and Ryo (ba), promoting only one demo tape at the time. Their first single, hitsuu kizuato was released only almost a year later, in March, 2002. In March of 2003, Mika joined as the drummer and the band began a tour across the Kanto region, passing out "hoshikuzu no rasen-ReSpirial-", "shinwa" and "ichigo oblate" for free. Later that year, Rentrer en Soi started playing in Tokyo and participated in an omnibus album, "Gekokujou". On January 31, 2004 Rentrer en Soi released their first album Yurikago, and did a one-man live shortly after. After the one-man live ended, Ao left the band. In an effort to continue making music, Shun replaced Ao as the guitarist. The second press of Yurikago was then released. The band then embarked on a nationwide tour, spring of that year. Since then, Rentrer en Soi has released 1 DVD, 4 singles, 1 album and 2 mini albums in only a year and a half.
In September 2008, the band announced they would be breaking up. No clear reasons for the disband were never given. Rentrer en Soi performed their last live on Christmas day 2008.
