They recorded two early mini-albums, Gjallarhorn in 2005 and Phantomime in 2006, encompassing a variety of genres, including hardcore, punk, metal, pop, and emo, accentuated by their own fast-paced sound. 2007 saw the releases of the Discommunication e.p., featuring "Discommunication" and a 25 minute live track, and The World e.p. which featured newly recorded version of songs from Gjallarhorn in addition two new tracks, "The World" and "Heat-Island." At the end of 2007 they released their first full album, Termination, after which they began their first one-man tour.
In the summer of 2008 the band released the double A-side single Supernova/Wanderland, which also included piano instrumentals of both songs, and a third song called "Wildpitch." In October the band released their second full album, VAMPIRE, and proceeded onto the VAMPIRE EMPIRE TOUR 08/09. In April of 2009 the band released their first live DVD, act I, which contained 4 concerts from different points in their career. The limited edition came with a copy of the VAMPIRE EMPIRE VIP pass and a photobook of the band.

Living Dying Message
9mm Parabellum Bullet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
分かち合えないと知っても
賑やか過ぎる人ごみの中
たとえ自分とはぐれても
あなたは二度と孤独になれない
いつか必ず分かる日が来るよ
あなたは二度と孤独にならない
いつか必ず分かる日が来るよ
忘れたくない思い出ばかり
震えるヒザに落ちた滴で
たとえ汚れてしまっても
これから先
消えてしまうものだけ
選んで愛したとしても
あなたは二度と孤独になれない
いつか必ず分かる日が来るよ
あなたは二度と孤独にならない
いつか必ず分かる日が来るよ
分かる日が来るよ
The lyrics of "Living Dying Message" by 9mm Parabellum Bullet talk about the inevitability of feeling alone in a bustling crowd, but also the belief that one will eventually find a day where they no longer feel this way. The first verse describes seeing a scene in someone's eyes, but realizing that it cannot be shared. Even if they get separated in a crowded place, the person will never be alone again, as there will eventually come a day where they will understand this. The second verse talks about memories that can't be forgotten, even if they are painful or dirty, and how we choose to love only those things that will disappear in the future. The refrain repeats that the day will come where they won't be alone anymore and that they will understand this.

瞳の中に映った景色
The scenery reflected in my eyes
分かち合えないと知っても
Even though we know we can't share it
賑やか過ぎる人ごみの中
In the bustling crowd
たとえ自分とはぐれても
Even if I get separated from myself
あなたは二度と孤独になれない
You'll never be alone again
いつか必ず分かる日が来るよ
One day you'll surely understand
断りもなく溢れ出すのは
What overflows without hesitation
忘れたくない思い出ばかり
Are only memories we don't want to forget
震えるヒザに落ちた滴で
With drops that fell on trembling knees
たとえ汚れてしまっても
Even if they get stained
これから先消えてしまうものだけ
Only the ones that will disappear from now on
選んで愛したとしても
Even if we chose and loved them
分かる日が来るよ
The day will come when we understand

TRANSLATION
Even though I know
I cannot share the scenery reflected in my eyes
Even though I stray away from myself in the bustling crowd
You won't ever get used to loneliness
The day will certainly come when you will understand
You will never again become lonely
The day will certainly come when you will understand
They flow without asking for permission
Only memories I don't want to forget
Like drops they fall on my trembling knees
Even though they end up staining me
Choose only things that will end up vanishing from now on
Even though I loved you
You won't ever get used to loneliness
The day will certainly come when you will understand
You will never again become lonely
The day will certainly come when you will understand
The day will come when you will understand
