girugamesh (ギルガメッシュ) was a Japanese alternative metal Visual-kei band, formed in 2003 and disbanded in 2016. The name was believed to be derived from the earliest known poem; Epic of Gilgamesh, but when asked about their choice for the name in an interview it was revealed that it actually came from the Final Fantasy character Gilgamesh, written as "Girugamesh" in japanese. The music of girugamesh is metal with gloomy undertones, sometimes experimenting with more electronic pop-rock sounds. Formed in 2003 in Chiba, ShuU and Nii had been friends since elementary school, the earliest incarnation of the band made its first performance while the members were still in high school. girugamesh began playing gigs in 2003, until they were signed to record label Gaina-Japan. Their first single, “Kaisen Sengen” was ranked #10 on the Oricon Indies chart. In 2005, girugamesh embarked on a nation-wide tour, after which they released their first live DVD, featuring footage from the tour, and after more touring, released an EP, Goku - Shohankei Enban.
In 2007, girugamesh was signed to the European label Gan-Shin. The band then was part of a 9-band Japanese rock festival in Los Angeles, California called “J-Rock Revolution”. They were part of the second night alongside Merry, D’espairsRay and MUCC. Around the time of J-Rock Revolution, some of the performing bands released material on the iTunes Music Store.
Their appearance gradually changed, while girugamesh began in the visual kei scene over time their style changed to a more casual look.
In 2016 they announced that their "chimera" Europe tour would be the last one and that they will hold a last live on July 10th at ZEPP DIVER CITY.
On November 22, 2017, girugamesh appeared on "[2017.11.22] TRIBUTE OF MUCC - 縁 [en] -" with a cover song titled: 五月雨 which was included as 1 of 2 secret bonus tracks (the other 恋は水色 by ムック(MUCC)). They also released this under the alias 左迅×弐×愁×Яyo.

ギルガメッシュ Lyrics
Break Down Break down! I think 大人達は言う 正しく生きろ 数ある答えの中で 正すモノがそう 侵してるのに 一体…
crying rain 降りだした雨は 乾いたアスファルトに溶けて 微熱混じりの手 冷たく包み込んでいく 涙見せずに 何かを犠牲にして歩く 例…
patchwork この世に平等なんて無い 誰かが一人で馬鹿を見る 優劣が付いて 比較されては批判を 目を瞑りたくなるんだ ののしられている…
ULTIMATE 4 気だるい MUSIC うんざり (It's grown into a scream) 外見だけ中身からっぽ 限界を突破…
Vermillion 唾を吐き黙りこんだ 俺はどうすれば? 嘲笑う葛藤それを 見てる存在が 優しさがほらまた裏返り 否定に聞こえてくる 何て言…
Vision White and square なこの space Close my eyes for me 眩みそうだ どうして?…
イノチノキ 未来を見つめると 君が曇り 側にいれば この手ほどきたくない 近すぎた距離が 二人遠ざけた 悲しみ痛み心寄せ合えば 温も…
遮断 其を恐怖感と呼び 目の前に壁を作られて 低俗過ぎるお前など これ以上踏みいるなと言う 鍵を開けろ お前にも聞こえるだろ…
