It did not take much time for their melodies to capture much of attention and respect from surrounding artists and audience. They soon successfully established themselves in the limelight of the J-pop scene, as their self-titled debut album "KIRINJI" released indie in 1997. They made their major debut in 1998 with Warner Music Japan.Their 3rd album "3" (released in 2000) which included 'Aliens' and was a smash hit in Japan. In 2003 they transferred to the record company TOSHIBA EMI, and in November of the same year, the duo embarked on a 7-city-nationwide tour, including the Budokan in Tokyo.
Kirinji switched labels again in 2005 to Columbia Music Entertainment. From there, the brothers began to work on solo projects; Yasuyuki made his solo debut as 馬の骨 (Uma no Hone) in June, followed by Takaki releasing his solo album in November.
In April 2013, Yasuyuki left the band. Takaki assembled a number of musicians from other bands to continue the project: Hitoshi Kusunoki (楠均, drums), Manabu Chigasaki (千ヶ崎学, bass/synth bass/vocal), Gen'ichi Tamura (田村玄一, steel guitar/steel pan/guitar/vocal), Erino Yumiki (弓木英梨乃, vocal/guitar/violin), and Kotringo (コトリンゴ, vocal/piano/keyboard). The band switched labels once again to Verve in summer 2014. Together they released an album in August of that year titled "11" and went on a national tour from September through November.

キリンジ Lyrics
あの世で罰を受けるほど 水溜り映った空に 波打つドクロの影 噂の悪魔がまさか つむじ風が吹く コウモリ飛び交って広場 周りは瞬時に豪雨 イナズ…
むすんでひらいて Ah 今日も持て余す僕の 膨らみ過ぎた好奇心にバクも消えた 緩いリズムに深く息をあわせて 踊るダンス! 行こう始まりは …
アルカディア 滲むキラ星 響く靴底のブルース ついて出る言葉は 放たれて意味へ急ぐ 光るやいなや 消える彗星のコース 満月を射止めて…
イカロスの末裔 暮れゆく空の神は甘いアルトのキャプテン スムースな離陸に拍手 靴が鳴る 胸踊る これで浮世としばしのお別れさ ブギ・ウギ…
エイリアンズ 遥か空に旅客機 音もなく 公団の屋根の上 どこへ行く 誰かの不機嫌も 寝静まる夜さ バイパスの澄んだ空気と 僕の町 …
グッデイ・グッバイ レイディ張り手うって逃げた大通りを デイドリームもて余して坊やは風船を放つ そうさ アルバイトがビラを配り 学生がはし…
サイレンの歌 光化学の街が 音も無く揺れる 赤 青 黄色 シグナル巡る 連れ立つ僕と影法師 電磁波に漂い 何処かへと向かう 誰もが一…
メスとコスメ 不二子もハニーも真っ蒼 噂で "変わった" と聞いてはいたけど 「ひさしぶりね」と微笑む 戸惑いを見透かすように メス…
千年紀末に降る雪は 戸惑いに泣く子供らと嘲笑う大人と 恋人はサンタクロース 意外と背は低い 悲しげな善意の使者よ あいつの孤独の深さに誰も…
悪玉 足に科せられたチェーン 白く光るコロシアム 異教徒のごとく礫を投げられて 勝つことを許されない二流で無名の悪玉 反則負け…
車と女 春めく フェアレディ うわの空に 想い出の雲をつかむよ 占う そのカード ばらまいたら ブランニューなロマンスをしようぜ…
