The same month, they gave a concert in the Shimokitazawa Shelter. Their first mini album SONIC DEAD KIDS was released on September 8th, followed by their single-tape and two other releases the following year.
Together with the band Straightener they released a split-cassette on March 6th, 2002, which has been long sold out since its release. The band's success continued into summer for two main reasons; first because of their appearance at the Fuji Rock Festival and second because of their contract with the major label Toshiba EMI. ART-SCHOOL released a new single that October and their first full-length album, REQUIEM FOR INNOCENCE, the following November.
Their first nationwide tour took place in January 2003, with the gig in the Shibuya Club Quattro being sold out on the first day. EVIL, their second major single, was released in April and again they were part of a big Japanese rock festival, the Japan Circuit in June. The following tour left a great impression and ensured the band's future success. The year continued with more releases and, unfortunately, ended with Oyama and Hinata leaving the band in December.
2004 began with the release of their first live album BOYS DON'T CRY in March. The support musicians Masafumi Todaka (guitar) and Takeshi Uno (bass) became official band members and would become a big influence on Art-School's future musical progress. To celebrate this new formation, they gave a free concert in the Shibuya O-East, which was attended by 10,000 people.
Their following releases were successful as well and made it possible for them to play at several festivals and events. They changed their label to Pony Records in the middle of the year, published a new mini-album and spent some time in Glasgow, Scottland to record their third full-studio album PARADISE LOST. The following PARADISE LOST TOUR 2005 provided enough material for their fist live DVD, sleep flowers, which was released in December 2005.
ART-SCHOOL continued to go strong from 2006 to 2007 with the release of two singles and two albums. Along with their releases, they kept themselves busy with various live shows and ended 2007 with a coupling tour with OGRE YOU ASSHOLE.
As for 2008, ART-SCHOOL released ILLMATIC BABY, a new mini-album which was produced by Yutaka Furukawa of DOPING PANDA. ART-SCHOOL then embarked on a tour with DOPING PANDA, OGRE YOU ASSHOLE, the telephones, THE NOVEMBERS, UNCHAIN and VOLA & THE ORIENTAL MACHINE as guests.
In April of 2009, Yuichi Sakurai (Drums) announced that he is leaving the band to form his own. ART-SCHOOL's last show with Sakurai was on the 8th May 2009 at the Chiba LOOK Livehouse.
ART-SCHOOL have since released two more albums, 2009's full-length 14SOULS and 2010's mini-album Anesthesia.
Takeshi Uno (Bass) and Hiroyuki Suzuki (Drums) left the band in December 2011 and started other projects.
Then On May 21st, the band held a free live, ‘DAY OF THE DEAD‘, at Shibuya CLUB QUATTRO with their new support members, bassist Nakao Kentaro (from Crypt City) and drummer Fujita Isamu (from MO'SOME TONEBENDER).
In August 2012 they released a new album called "BABY ACID BABY" under Ki/oon (means sony.jp)
and continue in March 2013 they released a mini album called "The Alchemist"

Bells
ART-SCHOOL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And she loved a sailor boy, he was only three
Now he's on a battleship, in his sailor suit
Just a great big sailor man, but he's just as cute
Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too
They are, oh, so much in love, happy as can be
Hand-in-hand they stroll along, they don't give a hoot
He won't let go of her hand, even to salute
Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too
When her sailor boy's away on the ocean blue
Soldier boys all flirt with her, but to him she's true
Though they smile and tip their caps, and they wink their eyes
She just smiles and shakes her head, and she softly sighs
Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too
The lyrics to ART-SCHOOL's song Bells tell the story of a young girl who has fallen in love with a sailor boy. The girl and the boy are deeply in love, as evidenced by the way they walk hand-in-hand down the street without caring about what other people think. The sailor is depicted as a great big sailor man, but still just as cute as the little boy the girl originally fell in love with. The lyrics suggest a real sense of devotion between these two young lovers.
The song also touches on the idea of fidelity. When the sailor boy is away at sea, other soldiers flirt with the girl, but she remains true to her sailor. This further reinforces the extent of the love that these two young people share.
The lyrics to Bells are simple but touching. They paint a picture of young love that is pure and unwavering. The idea of staying true to one's love, even when apart, is central to the storyline. The melody and instrumentation also add to the feeling of young love, with a bouncy rhythm and light, upbeat piano and guitar.
Line by Line Meaning
Once there was a little girl, who lived next to me
There was a girl who lived near me
And she loved a sailor boy, he was only three
She loved a boy who was a sailor, but very young
Now he's on a battleship, in his sailor suit
He is now on a battleship, dressed as a sailor
Just a great big sailor man, but he's just as cute
He's grown into a man, but still cute to her
When they walk along the street, anyone can see
It's obvious to anyone when they're together in public
They are, oh, so much in love, happy as can be
They are very much in love and happy
Hand-in-hand they stroll along, they don't give a hoot
They walk holding hands and don't care what others think
He won't let go of her hand, even to salute
He loves her so much that he won't even let go of her hand to salute
When her sailor boy's away on the ocean blue
When he's away at sea
Soldier boys all flirt with her, but to him she's true
Other soldiers flirt with her, but she remains loyal to him
Though they smile and tip their caps, and they wink their eyes
The soldiers flirt with her in a friendly way
She just smiles and shakes her head, and she softly sighs
She responds to their flirting with a smile, but still longs for her sailor
Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
Describing the sailor's uniform
She loves her sailor and he loves her too
They love each other
