[BREAKERZ] 21st thread ~ hiatus + DAIGO's 3rd solo single CHANGE!!/心配症な彼女 (10.9)

Welcome to the 21st thread of 1 of JRock most talented trios







Today is really fun WISH-wink wink wink ! xD



xD





From Left To Right :

AKIHIDE - Guitar , Chorus , Music , Lyrics

DAIGO - Vocals , Chorus , Music , Lyrics

SHINPEI - Guitar , Chorus , Music





Supposedly's Aki's drawing that he did up in the Oct '09 issue of Arena 37C xD



Band

Formed in April 2007 , BREAKERZ is a J-rock trio that is made up of 3 gorgeous & extremely talented guys : frontman vocalist DAIGO & guitarists AKIHIDE and SHINPEI .

BREAKERZ started off as DAIGO and SHINPEI's project . Meeting through a mutual friend and various recording sessions , they worked together to make a demo . DAIGO is in charge of music and lyrics while SHINPEI is in charge of arrangements .

In the span of 1 month , they created 40 songs . Later on , they are joined by DAIGO's longtime friend who has worked many times with him in his band , songwriting , playing guitar and singing chorus . That is AKIHIDE & the 3 of them joined together to form BREAKERZ .

The origins of BREAKERZ's name means "wanting to destroy" or "destroying once & for all" & connects breaking through genres & barriers . The original band's name was first spelled with an S but it was later changed to Z adopting the letter from B'z , which SHINPEI's a massive big fan of the duo .

Incidentally , the band's name was derived even before SHINPEI joined .

BREAKERZ's goal was to be like the musicians that they admire/respect such as hyde & Himuro Kyosuke .

All arrangements are credited under BREAKERZ as so but it is the composer of the song who leads the arrangement , while the rest of the members fine tune the song while utilising their own ideas .

Their music can't be described in just one word . It's a fusion mix of AKIHIDE's UK rock guitar sounds & SHINPEI's American rock guitar sounds which're both combined with DAIGO's somewhat sexy lush seductive voice xD .

Despite having 2 guitarists in the group , AKIHIDE & SHINPEI have distinct display of flair with their guitar/s while onstage . AKIHIDE has been described as a guitarist that plays delicate pitch sounds & puts up unique performances while SHINPEI has been described as a guitarist who performs aggressively and powerfully .

The band's historic debut is on 6 June 2007 with their first single WAKE UP MY SOUL / THE TRAIN's GONE ... became available on iTunes Japan .

BREAKERZ is signed by ZAIN Records , a member of the Being Giza Group .

The trio made their major debut with their self-titled debut album on July 25th 2007 . Their first live performance took place at SHIBUYA BOXX on August 5th 2007 . During live performances , the guys often wear prayer bead bracelets which were made by DAIGO's late maternal grandma .

BREAKERZ doesn't have a permanent bassist nor a drummer in their duty roaster , so they use various support members when comes to recording of their material & also in live performances too .

As of Spring 2013 , BREAKERZ is currently on a hiatus in which each member is pursuing solo activities & they have mentioned before when the time's right , they will return back together as a trio , mentally , physically & then some stronger than ever before .

1) His late maternal grandpa was the 74th prime minister of Japan ie. Noboru Takeshita

2) His oldest sister is Eiki Eiki (who's born on 6th Dec 1971) & she's a mangaka (comic artist/cartoonist) . Eiki Eiki drew/published a comic book called Eiki Eiki no Buchaketai !! that was released on 3rd June 2009 & the manga centres on DAIGO & their late grandpa

3) DAIGO's famously well known for his WISH rock pose . On why he use the word WISH , it's because it derives from the word Wissu which's like a greeting that school students used , kind of like the Japanese version of the word 'hi'

4) In real life , DAIGO's a complete DoM (Mascochist) but onstage during live performances & in the band's PVs , he adopts a DoS (Sadist) personality

5) DAIGO is responsible for close to writing/composing (most of the time both but depends) 90% of BREAKERZ's material

6) 3 things he cannot live without - phone , iphone & gloves

7) Prior to the release of DAIGO FIRST PHOTOBOOK DAIGOING L.A , it was DAIGO's 1st visit to US where he went to L.A for 5 days to shoot/complete the photobook

8) DAIGO has tremendous respect to Himuro Kyosuke (whom composed DAIGO's debut solo single MARIA when he was DAIGO☆STARDUST) , Acid Black Cherry's yasu , L'Arc~en~Ciel~'s hyde & holds them in high regard/esteem

In fact BREAKERZ super respect ABC's yasu , so much so that DAIGO calls yasu Aniki / elder brother in his blog

He's also good friends with Anna Tsuchiya , SID's lead singer/frontman Mao , GACKT & abingdon boys school's lead singer/frontman Takanori Nishikawa aka T.M.Revolution

9) Aside from WISH , in 2010 , DAIGO coined a lingo called Kuraimu (pronounced as Climb) . In 2011 , DAIGO coined Bunnysh (Bunny + WISH) & Ariasu (the short form of Arigatou Gozaimasu) while this year in 2013 , the word Hebish (Hebi ; Japanese word for Snake + WISH) have been added to DAIGO's ever long list of words he coined up himself -_-

After DAIGO officially joined Twitter , 2 more set of words that he coined up has entered his dictionary in the form of Retwish (DAIGO's version of retweet) & Twishing (tweet + wish)

10) Besides being a singer/songwriter/composer for BREAKERZ , he's also a talento

10 RANDOM FACTS ON SHINPEI

1) SHINPEI is the youngest in the group

2) SHINPEI's the only one so far in BREAKERZ that has not written lyrics for their discography as he tends to lean on the composing side of things at this point in time

3) SHINPEI has 13 guitars , in which 6 of them which are used to write songs at home & the rest are used for recording the group's material

Now that SHINPEI has purchased a brand new Sugi SH485 , the number has since been changed to 14 guitars

4) His given name means "modest peace" (It was in order for him to become a modest & peaceful person . So his parents named him like so)

5) He's in B'z fanclub even though a lot of times during MC sessions , DAIGO said SHINPEI's not lol

6) SHINPEI always is if not the butt of jokes during their offshot clips , no thanks to DAIGO's antics & also sometimes AKIHIDE too :O

7) He's the proud uncle of a beautiful niece whose nickname is BOSS-chan & in 2010 , a nephew whose nickname is Agubi-kun . Sometimes he talks about them on his blog



8) his special skills include weight training and eating curry

9) SHINPEI's nickname is Shinpi & his catch phrase is using the word 'muscle' on his blog even though in real life , he surprisingly doesn't use it verbally

10) SHINPEI had a dog which's called Chappy . Chappy was a Pomeranian & it was born on 24th Feb 2010



The origin of Chappy's name was due to the fact that SHINPEI raised a light brown puppy , since light brown means Chairoi in Japanese

Just like BOSS-chan & Agubi-kun , SHINPEI talked about Chappy a fair bit on his blog but sadly in early May 2013 , Chappy passed away from an accident as what SHINPEI wrote on his blog . RIP Chappy

Karen, What is the title track or the song with more promo in Lapis Lazuli? Did he make a PV for any song in Lapis Lazuli ?

AKIHIDE didn't really made any official/proper music video(s) when he released Lapis Lazuli last year as this album (so far) is the only 1 that wasn't released in a CD + DVD format

However , 4 videos of him playing 4 songs from the album were uploaded in the guys' YouTube

AKIHIDE×8 - Lapis Lazuli



Lapis Lazuli (the song) is found as track #2 in Lapis Lazuli (the album)

AKIHIDE × AKIHIDE × AKIHIDE - Home



Home is found as track #7 in Lapis Lazuli

on Guitar AKIHIDE x on Cello Harutoshi Ito - Rain



Rain is found as track #8 in Lapis Lazuli

on Guitar AKIHIDE × on Drums Akira Kawasaki (from mouse on the keys) - Battle



Battle is found as track #10 in Lapis Lazuli

To me the version of Battle that AKIHIDE plays together with Akira Kawasaki sounds a lot more better than the version I hear in the CD
