Kizu (キズ) is a Japanese visual kei rock band, formed in 2017 by Lime on vocals, Reiki on guitar, Yue on bass, and Kyonosuke as a drummer. They have released nine singles and two live albums.
Career
The band was formed in March 2017, when they mysteriously announced a flyer with a phone number.[1] Four months after, Kizu made its first solo performance which the 1,300 tickets available sold out in just one second.[2] On October 10, they released their second single, "Kawazu (蛙 -Kawazu-)".[3]
They released the single "Steroid" (ステロイド) in two editions on July 31, 2018. On November 20 of the same year, the group joined the European label Gan-Shin Records.[4] The performance "0" on January 11, 2019, sold out in one day and the band announced the single Heisei (平成), released on March 19.[5]
The single "Jigoku" (地獄) was released on April 28, 2020, also in two editions.[6]
