The music of girugamesh is metal with gloomy undertones, but recently the band has been experimenting with more electronic pop-rock sounds with metal. 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, when the original vocalist Tora and guitarist Hotaru left, 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.

You're talking like Girugamesh died or something. They're still hitting up the stores with EPIC songs.

This song is amazing. Hard to believe it hasn't been used for an anime intro or something yet. It would really fit something dark and action packed.
