[BREAKERZ] The 40th thread - guitarist AKIHIDE's 7th solo album 星飼いの少年 (15.01.20)

Welcome to the 40th thread of 1 of JRock most talented trios







Today is really fun WISH-wink wink wink ! xD



xD









From Left To Right :

SHINPEI - Guitar , Chorus , Music

DAIGO - Vocals , Chorus , Music , Lyrics

AKIHIDE - Guitar , Chorus , Music , Lyrics

















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 .

In Spring 2013 , BREAKERZ went on hiatus in which each member pursued solo activities and after their 1st countdown live BREAKERZ COUNTDOWN LIVE 2014-2015 concluded , BREAKERZ announced that they were making a full comeback and restarted their band related activities in mid 2015 with the release of a new single , a new album & a new live tour which they dubbed it as the trilogy comeback .

BREAKERZ celebrated their 10th anniversary in 2017 with the release of Ikusen no Meikyuu de Ikusen no Nazo wo Toite in January followed by BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- which consists of them doing 10 concerts with 10 different artistes .

In July 2017 , BREAKERZ released their 18th single Yume Monogatari on 12th July . Before a duo back to back concert BREAKERZ Debut 10th Anniversary 【BREAKERZ X】 MEMORY & PROMISE that took place on 15th and 16th July respectively , BREAKERZ Debut 10th Anniversary Live 【BREAKERZ X】 Warming Up Vol.2 took place on 6th July which's 1 day after AKIHIDE's birthday .

In Oct 2017 , BREAKERZ released a 10th anniversary special album X (pronounces as Cross) on 18th Oct . X has 2 CDs , the 1st CD is titled 10th anniversary special collaboration album that includes 10 songs which BREAKERZ sang a different track during each of the 10 BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- concerts while the 2nd CD titled Request best includes 15 songs that fans selected/voted online as part of Fans' Select Best (in which each fan was able to vote a maximum of 3 songs to be included in X) .

In Nov & Dec 2017 , BREAKERZ LIVE TOUR 2017 【X-cross-】 commenced .

BREAKERZ starts off 2018 with the release of their 19th single D×D×D / GREAT AMBITIOUS -Single Version- on 7th March and this is their 1st double A-side single release since 2012's Overwrite / Nounai Survivor .

The photos taken of DxDxD marks 3 different 1st's in the band's history

AKIHIDE - dyed his hair blonde
DAIGO - wore a red wig
SHINPEI - photographed without his trademark sunglasses

Following the release of D×D×D / GREAT AMBITIOUS -Single Version- in March , the members celebrated DAIGO's 40th birthday on 8th April with BREAKERZ LIVE 2018 ~DAIGO's 40th BIRTHDAY~ .

The group's 2nd release of 2018 is BREAKERZ Debut 10th Anniversary Live [BREAKERZ X] COMPLETE BOX that was released on 23rd May .

Solo activities of each member took place in conjunction with band related activities in 2018 until mid July .

In September , BREAKERZ embarked on BREAKERZ Fan Club Live 2018 & this tour was to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the group's fanclub team brz since it 1st established on 1st September 2008 .

Consisting of 5 dates , 2 different concerts took place on each BREAKERZ Fan Club Live 2018 date ie. the 1st concert had an Acoustic Style while the 2nd concert had a Rock Style .

The last time the guys did a fanclub tour was TEAM BREAKERZ VALENTINE LIVE 2012 GO!GO! VALENTINE .

After BREAKERZ Fan Club Live 2018 concluded , solo activities of each member once again continued until the end of 2018 .

BREAKERZ resumes group activities in 2019 , starting with conducting their 1st fanclub BREAKERZ Valentine Cruise ♥ event that took place on 11th Feb .

BREAKERZ Valentine Cruise ♥ is a thank you event to commemorate the 10th anniversary of team brz establishment .

And the group's 1st concert of 2019 BREAKERZ LIVE 2019 ~Heisei Saigo no DAIGO's BIRTHDAY~ was held on 6th April at Tokyo's EX THEATER ROPPONGI , followed by the debut & last appearance of a new unit D.A.S :





D.A.S is a dance unit trio . Contrary to what most fans assume , D.A.S name is not based on each of the members' initials . Instead it stands for :

D - Destiny
A - Against
S - Sorrow

In D.A.S , AKIHIDE + DAIGO shared joint vocals while SHINPEI rapped with the 3 of them doing dancing co-currently together at the same time for 4 minutes onstage .

10 RANDOM FACTS ON SHINPEI

1) SHINPEI is the youngest in the group

2) SHINPEI's the only one 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

That has since changed when SHINPEI wrote the lyrics and also composed OUTRAGE , which's track #9 in the guys' 6th studio album 0-ZERO-

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

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

8) SHINPEI's special skills include weight training and eating curry . He's the most domestically inclined in the group as he also knows how to cook

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

https://twitter.com/sardunderground/...09470886531074

===

Oh wow that's neat & I'm surprised the guys has not taken part something Detective Conan related until now :O

I wouldn't be surprised if the guys will perform the songs they contributed to the Detective Conan anime over the years at next month's Detective Conan Special Concert 2019

And frankly that should happen as some of their best material contributed to the Detective Conan anime still stood the test of time up to now

Lastly , this will be the 1st time the guys will be performing in Osaka Jo Hall

My friend helped me get another autograph from the guys earlier on at Chiba's LaLaport Kashiwanoha





SHINPEI wrote my name down <3

I'm shocked when my friend told me that she'll be taking 2 photos with the guys today , 1 earlier on at Chiba's LaLaport Kashiwanoha and later on in the late afternoon at Saitama's AEON Lake Town o_O

So my friend will take 4 photos with BREAKERZ in total

And that's a lot of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori copies my friend purchased and here I thought I bought a lot

3rd photo my friend took with the guys earlier on at Chiba's LaLaport Kashiwanoha



Heh & my friend's top matches the guys' outfits , colour wise xD

My friend is already at Saitama's AEON Lake Town and she said currently only the CD + Photobook version of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori is available at the release event venue

And right now she's hesitating if she want to take a 4th photo with the guys lmao

The last Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori release event at Saitama's AEON Lake Town kaze 3rd Floor Aeon Hall is going to start very soon

Taken at the venue



https://twitter.com/larc01_brz/statu...03195803922433

Earlier on at Chiba's LaLaport Kashiwanoha after my friend took her 3rd photo with the guys , DAIGO said thanks to my friend while saying her name properly which felt weird xD

Originally at AEON Lake Town , only the CD + Photobook version of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori was available for sale

But earlier on TSUTAYA Lake Town has restocked more copies of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori regarding all 3 versions and my friend has bought 6 more copies of the CD only

Barks on Wed published a long but yet insightful interview that they did with the guys in conjunction with the release of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori

_kurosora @ Twitter translated some parts from the interview to English . Not the whole interview is translated but only certain portions that're interesting if not worth noting on

While for the rest , it's contributed by me

As with all translations , everything is not 100% accurate give or take

Partial translations of the interview are in the spoiler

Spoiler:
- In reality , Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori is an old song melody wise . It's not known how old it's as AKIHIDE composed it many years ago , it could have been something included way back in the guys' debut album if not when AKIHIDE was still part of NEVER LAND

- Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori was put into proper creation 2 years ago when DAIGO sent AKIHIDE an email about it & also to give life to the song by putting lyrics into place

- Lyrically , Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori does not have any English/Engrish words which's something DAIGO 'enforce' to capture the true essence of the song

- Before Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori had a proper song title , AKIHIDE originally gave a temporary title in English

- Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori melody that AKIHIDE created , DAIGO modified it slightly but AKIHIDE is still the only 1 credited as being the 1 who composed the song

- The blue bird painting that can be seen at the end of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori PV , it's created by Kunimatsu Hiryu & DAIGO knows him personally

- Atarashii Sekai e Atarashii Jidai e -- the song was inspired by the end of the Heisei era & ushering of the new Reiwa era

The song centres on opening new doors without forgetting important things & memories

Atarashii Sekai e Atarashii Jidai e melody demo was only a piano before the inclusion of 80s inspired keyboards

- BROKEN -- DAIGO likes the beats & guitar solo in the song

Translated by _kurosora @ Twitter :

- DAIGO said that it was hard for him to record Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori

- With regards to Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori PV , DAIGO originally supposed to be the 1 to act the role of a struggling painter in the video but then he realised it's hard for him to convey the type of emotions he's supposed to portray in it

By chance the day before the shooting of the PV , DAIGO was having a meal with actor Yamamoto Koji . DAIGO told Yamamoto , "I'd like to work together" & Yamamoto said "that would be fun"

Due to this , DAIGO requested Yamamoto instead of him to play the painter role in the Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori PV

- BROKEN -- SHINPEI originally wrote the lyrics 1st but DAIGO wasn't satisfied with what he wrote & in the end DAIGO rewrote the whole song

SHINPEI said that he doesn't remember what he wrote (LOL LOL LOL) & DAIGO said no offence but the song indeed was broken lyrically (LMAO)

- Milky Way -- SHINPEI told AKIHIDE , "I will play the metallophone" . AKIHIDE was surprised that he didn't want to play the guitar in the song's melody

DAIGO told SHINPEI to be careful not to commit any mistake during live performance(s) of Milky Way because it'll be obvious (:p)

Aside from guitars , SHINPEI also owns a metallophone


https://www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000171431

It's very interesting to find out the back stories behind the songs . If I didn't try my best to read the Barks interview , I wouldn't have guessed in reality Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori is a very old song o_o

And it's so funny the way DAIGO trolled SHINPEI regarding BROKEN xD xD xD

I suppose if both men didn't had a meal together on the day before the Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori PV was filmed , Yamamoto Koji wouldn't have starred in the PV but it would have been DAIGO instead x)

Unlike the last 10 Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori release events , for yesterday's last mini live setlist in Saitama , the guys performed acoustic versions of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori & Milky Way !

DAIGO posted this earlier on via Instagram



Quote:
BREAKERZの新曲【闇夜に舞う青い鳥】この作品のミュージック・ビデオはこの絵がなければ完成しなか っただろう。新進気鋭のアーティスト[国松飛龍]が描いた、青い鳥。山本耕史さんが演じる主人公は、40代 になり、なかなか上手くいかない現実に葛藤し、苦悩し、絵を描いては黒で塗り潰していく画家。何日も何日も 繰り返し、その長い長い闇夜を抜けた後に、辿り着く希望、そして夢の象徴。【闇夜に舞う青い鳥】この絵はま さに、この曲のテーマ、全てを表している。見事な油絵を描いてくれた国松飛龍。大胆かつ繊細な筆使いで闇夜 に舞う青い鳥を表現してくれた。今後が大いに楽しみである。そして彼と猪股知明のアーティストプロジェクト siwazaにも注目したい。

DAIGO wrote in the long Instagram caption that the blue bird painting that's seen at the end of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori PV symbolises hope & dreams

Audio tracks of Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori have been uploaded online (not by me)

https://twitter.com/Hikarinoakaris/s...24906105348096

And I'm currently in the processing of editing my LiveJournal related entries to the single as I just realised I wrote the wrong song title down @_@

It's Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori , not Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori

xD
