Hyde is the beautiful boy lead singer of Rainbow, and time seems to have left no mark on him. . Hyde has slight color weakness, and he smokes a lot (20 cigarettes a day). In 1999, he had stomach surgery. There are also rumors that he has been in poor health recently. And he loves gambling>&<;We found that he always wears the same outfit again and again...and it's a furry coat.

Before joining Laluku, Hyde worked as a drum teacher. He also formed a band and served as the guitarist. After the band disbanded, he was approached by Testu to be the lead singer. But Hyde initially thought it was silly to be a lead singer. His wish was to become a guitarist, but now he doesn't think so.

Hyde is very versatile. He has written the lyrics for all of Rainbow's works. I personally think the lyrics of "Flower Burial" are absolutely beautiful. In addition, hyde also composes songs such as honey, heaven's drive, etc., all of which have a rock style. hyde plays guitar, harmonica and saxophone.

Hyde's childhood

Hyde was born in Kansai and is the only child in the family. Because her mother has always longed for a lovely daughter, she often lets her son wear girls' clothes. , when Hyde was older and went to kindergarten, he started to notice his strange dress. Because in kindergarten, girls use red stationery and tableware, while boys use blue. He started to think about it. , why did he use red?

When he was a child, he was like a little girl, and he loved to cry. It was common for people to admit his mistakes. In addition, at that time, Hyde also had an innocent period. At that time, he had a good friend "te" chiyan. (Of course not the current tetsu), and he and he also fell in love with a girl "TOMO" chiyan with big eyes and very cute, and they painted her portrait together. , it was a secret between the two of them that they agreed not to show it to others! But in the end, Te Chiyan betrayed him and actually showed the painting to his mother!

Hyde recalled that it was his first time When he lied, he would cry to Te Chiyan’s mother and say that he didn’t like TOMO. Hehe~ Children are so cute.

tetsu, the bassist and captain of the team, was born in a family of five. He has two sisters. , and two beloved dogs. Everyone in the family calls him "te" Chiyan, and even his two sisters never call him brother. In addition, Tetsu is a quite introverted person and doesn't like sports very much.

Besides music, Tetsu’s favorite thing is watching movies and animations. In recent years, he has become crazy about "Neon Genesis Evangelion".

Tetsu’s music style is like His portrait has a warm, warm and friendly feeling~~For example, "Snow Drop" is a song that is very suitable to listen to at Christmas~~The famous emotional song "Pieces" is even more characteristic of his composition. To the fullest!

tetsu is the same as hyde. Both of them are from Osaka, and the band’s name was given to him by him. As the leader, he always faces the camera with a friendly smile. In it, he is responsible for the bass performance and the harmony part of the music. He is also responsible for the band's composition work. Most of the songs written by tetsu are lighter and mainstream songs. Compared with ken, he has a stronger pop flavor, which sometimes makes people feel uncomfortable. When people listen to it, they will feel that it really looks like a certain advertising song. Occasionally, tetsu will write lyrics for his own songs, such as milky way and Perfect Blue, which are tetsu's works. By the way, tetsu plays the bass very well.

Tetsu was obsessed with model toys when he was a child, and it seems that he is still the same now. He also likes the Gundam series of cartoons, especially Asuka from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Tetsu has always been dressed up in fancy clothes since he was a child. Beautiful! According to the memories of former classmates, Tetsu's room was full of beautiful and bright clothes, which made people wonder: "Is this really a boy's room?" When I was doing a magazine interview, I was asked what I wanted most. What to expect? Tetsu's answer was "to be a girl". It seems that he really likes to dress up.

Tetsu and Hyde have known each other for nine years, and they know each other so well that "it's not strange even if they have children" In this situation, tetsu thinks that he is a cheerful, energetic person who works hard and loves his work, while hyde thinks that tetsu gives people a serious impression.

Ken's appearance became quite decadent after 1998, and he often smoked a cigarette during performances. As a guitarist, Ken is the soul of the band's composition. L'Arc-en-Ciel's About 70% of the songs are composed by him. Although it feels like a big child, most of the songs he creates are meaningful, and you need to listen carefully to feel the artistic conception in the music.

When I was a child Ken is a student with both good character and academic performance! In high school, he was successfully admitted to a prestigious middle school in Kansai, and later he easily entered the National University in Nagoya. Looking at him now, it is hard to imagine that this is the good student he used to be.< /p>

"Once you start something, you must persist until the end!" This is Ken's family motto. Whether he joins the billiards club in middle school or insists on participating in band performances after entering high school, he can always do it. Ken, who has maintained excellent academic performance, was admitted to the Department of Architecture of the National University in Nagoya. His mother was very happy that her son was admitted to the National University: "The Department of Architecture means...

This means that there will be no difficulties in finding a job in the future. For the eldest son in the family to have opened up such a path, we can live with peace of mind."

While Ken is focusing seriously on his schoolwork, he still Playing the guitar in parallel, he is still shining brightly on the stage of Hikone’s Live House. Of course, for his parents, they hope that Ken will work in a stable and ordinary company after graduating from college. But as he nears graduation from college One day, Ken's parents' dream was completely shattered by the temptation of Tetsu, a junior from his hometown. Tetsu of L'Arc-en-Ciel, who had formed in Osaka before and was working towards the Major Debut, was on the phone. Say this: "Our guitarist quits, so do you want to join our band? Of course, this requires you to still want to play guitar." If ken continues his university studies like this, he will be able to join our band without any difficulty. I got a job after graduation. But in a corner of Ken's heart, he had this confusion: "If you just become an office worker, the final result is already foreseeable. Is it still worth working so hard to do it?" ?" At this moment, the temptation from Tetsu continued, "The recording work is imminent, but the guitarist we worked with has left. We need Ken's help. The guitarist with us is none other than Ken." This In the morning call, Tetsu's words shook Ken's heart. "I understand. I'll be there right away." After saying these words, Ken arrived in Osaka without telling his parents. As a result, Ken dropped out of college.

Ken's parents were very angry about their child doing this, and said they wanted to sever the relationship: "At this point, the parent-child bond between us is broken. He no longer regards him as a son, so he Of course, there is no need to come back home." The above are the words heard by Ken's relatives. The same relative told us: "Tetsu also often goes back to his hometown, and his parents also miss his band activities. But. So far, Ken has never been home. This is probably because the obsession between his parents continues to this day." Ken, who is active as a guitarist that can almost represent Japan, hopes that his passion for music will also continue. The day can come when I can be accepted by my family and my current activities and childhood memories can become a topic of laughter at family reunions. This may be what all fans are looking forward to...

History of L'Arc~en~Ciel Band

Two years after the major debut in 1994, in 1996, the single "风に杀えなぃで" was released in July ” debuted at No. 4 on the Oricon pop chart. “Flower”, released in October of the same year, peaked at No. 5 on the list, and “Lies & Truth” in November debuted at No. 6; the song Being able to rank within the 10th place on the streaming charts not only proves that the song is accepted and has a certain amount of sales, but also that the band has gradually emerged and begun to receive widespread attention from fans and the media, and its popularity has increased. The album "True" already ranked second on the Oricon Album Chart when it debuted in December, and climbed to first place again in the sixth week after its release (January 27, 1997). It set a Best 10d record for 9 consecutive weeks, and sold more than one million copies. The singles released since its revival in October 1997 have all been ranked within the 10th position on the Oricon pop chart.

The Rainbow Begins

L'Arc~en~Ciel was formed in Osaka in 1991 and it was not until 1994 that they had their first Major Debut Album "Tierra". During this period of time, they continued to actively participate in various music activities, such as holding live performances in Osaka or even Kyoto (Tokyo), and included Live Video, CD Single, and also participated in the Omnibus CD "GIMMICK"; in 1993 April In March they released their first album "DUNE", and since then they have been busy performing live tours in various places. Although they are only small-scale concerts, their popularity has occupied a place in the band sound. The first Major Debut Album "Tierra" was released in 1994; the first Single "Blurry eyes" was also released on October 21 of the same year. The song was used as the theme song of the Japanese TV cartoon "D.N.A.2". Similarly, the second single "Vivid Colors" was also used as the song of "ぐるぐる99" by Nippon TV, and the C/S "Brilliant Years" on the same album was used as the ending song of "しんドラ".

As for the third Single "Summer Melancholy", it was used as the ending theme song of TBS's "M-Navi". Although the songs when they first debuted were always selected as TV songs, and they were probably thought to be frequently broadcast on TV, but in fact those programs were only second- and third-tier programs with low ratings, and the ratings were only average, and the songs were not broadcast on TV The on-air time was very short, so it did not achieve the effect of helping publicity. However, they don't have prominent makeup or extreme or gorgeous costumes, so it's really difficult to leave an impression on the audience.

Although L'Arc~en~Ciel's songs were often selected by TV stations as program songs, they only appeared on TV once, in 1994, when hyde participated in the commercial "AXIA"; it was a TV station program or some comprehensive program. However, they have never participated in the show. As for the popular music program TV Asahi's "Musical Station", their first appearance was in the second year after the launch of "Tierra"; and another popular music program, Fuji TV's "HEY!" HEY! HEY!" first appeared in March 1998.

The Formation of the Rainbow

It can be said that it is Tetsu’s ambition to form a professional band. Since graduating from high school, he has been working part-time while going to live houses to scout. You can form a band with like-minded members, and the first one you found was hyde, who you can talk to and get along with. Hyde just graduated from a design vocational school in Osaka in the summer of 1990. He usually worked part-time and sang with a band. The name of the band he formed with his high school classmates at that time was JERSAREMS ROD. At that time, Tetsu was looking for members to form a new band together. Hyde, whom he met at the live house, was exactly the person he was looking for. Tetsu invited him over and over again to form a band, but he was always rejected. Hyde declined out of consideration for other members, but Tetsu did not give up because of this. He also lobbied on the phone many times and sincerely invited Hyde to try band auditioning together. On the other hand, JERSAREMS ROD, which was formed when they were in high school, also began to waver due to issues among teammates about their future and their future. Initially, everyone dreamed of becoming a professional band, but due to issues such as future, employment, and further education, they also began to have doubts. There are differences, and the biggest problem is that they cannot guarantee to parents that playing in a band can make money to support the family. Even renting a band room for practice and buying musical instruments will cost a lot of money; let alone a full-time job, even working as a band member will cost a lot of money. Part-time jobs also require frequent leave from rehearsal before live performances, and it is not easy to find jobs that can accept their exaggerated hairstyles and costumes... so there are many people who give up before they officially become a professional band. JERSAREMS ROD also ended up disbanding due to these reasons.

Rainbow's Efforts

L'Arc~en~Ciel, formed in 1991, was originally composed of tetsu, hyde, hiro, and pero. The four of them came together Both bands have the same goal - to become an outstanding professional band. Live house performances are like stepping stones to fame, so every band that performs in live house will cherish and work hard to do their best in order to gain more fans. But if you want to perform in a live house, the audio source for the audition is of course indispensable. Bands usually pre-record their songs into demo tapes, and L'Arc~'s demo tape contains "I' m in Pain" and "Nostalgia" as well as 6 or 7 other songs are included in the soundtrack. At the same time, they are also busy taking promotional photos and printing promotional leaflets. Of course, they cannot stop composing music, lyrics and creating new songs. .

L'Arc~, headed by tetsu and hyde, held their first live performance together with other bands on May 30 of the same year after forming in Namba, Osaka. There were only more than 200 fans who came to enjoy the band sound that day. Although the number was small, it was already an unforgettable memory for L'Arc~ who appeared that day. The songs performed were all revealed for the first time, so fans may not have heard of them. Hyde is not good at MC and did not deliberately create an interesting and lively atmosphere. They just performed it seriously. With 8 songs and 40 minutes, this moment was just the right moment for their songs to fill the entire venue.

Tetsu said with a smile that he was full of confidence. He believed that this concert was just the first step for them to achieve success.

He noticed that Hyde, who usually smiled and laughed when he was practicing, became very serious as soon as he stepped on the stage. His enterprising and hard-working sincerity made him believe in L'Arc even more~ He will definitely be loved by more people. People accept and recognize it.

Since their debut, L'Arc~ has always been in its own way. You can feel their musical talent from the songs they create, and their unique character and unwillingness to follow the crowd. These are all differences between them and other bands. They have their own singing route and style. What everyone should pay attention to in their songs is that each song has a different tone and wide range in the creation and arrangement. The lyrics have endless meanings and many fresh ideas. . But what needs to be clarified again and again is that they are not entertainers, they don't like to show off, they only make music they like. They are just a band that likes to play music, and all they want is for everyone to recognize the music they create. As for their private lives, they are even more low-key and confidential. Regarding the media, they are highly vigilant to prevent reporters from making fearless reports or random speculations, in order to maintain a sense of mystery and personal privacy for the band, so regarding L'Arc~, We can only know about them through interviews and reports, and the topics seem to be limited to questions and answers about music and song promotion. As for their real private lives and things before their debut, they are rarely mentioned.
