Lareine was a Japanese rock band formed in 1994, defined as a visual kei band.[1] Formed in 1994, the group was initially signed to Applause Records and from 1999 on to Sony Music Entertainment Japan. After a number of line-up changes[2] and the release of several albums, EPs and singles, the group ceased its activities in 2006. Guitarist Hizaki filled in on guitar on the group's last concert on October 31, 2006. Vocalist Kamijo has since formed a new band, Versailles. Emiru is now called Run and is the bassist for Anubis. Drummer Kazumi quit his musical career after the group's March 1, 2006 concert.
