Band Feature: DALATH



DALATH is a 3-member band founded in January 2009 in the Kanto region of Japan by members TORA and JSKE, who had often played together in prior bands, with the stated intent to explore “the destructive energy expressed by sounds.” Vocalist Ryuta joined the pair in April 2012. The band does not classify itself as pursuing a particular musical genre, but vocalist Ryuta states in his Facebook page that their sound will appeal to fans of hard rock, heavy metal, and visual kei.
Throughout July, September, and October 2012, DALATH have participated in a variety of live show performances, and on November 17th, they released their first PV for the song “Cheeky Ren” to the public. That video, as well as other comment videos and cover tracks can be found on the band’s official YouTube channel.
Recently DALATH was nominated among 20 other bands to participate in a Râmen x JaME Bands Contest to determine which band fans wanted to visit Europe in March and April 2013. Voting for that contest has closed, but the results have not yet been released. The band is quickly gaining attention overseas, and is definitely one to watch for Western fans of Japanese music.
