BLOOD STAIN CHILD was formed in 2000 by RYO (vocal, bass), RYU (guitar), DAIKI (guitar), AKI (keyboard), and VIOLATOR (drums). In August 2000, BLOOD STAIN CHILD recorded their first demo, which consisted of the songs "Silence Of Northern Hell", "Requiem", and "Legend Of Dark". The band sent that demo to a radio station and the DJ enjoyed the music so much that he recommended the band to the record label, M&I Company, who eventually signed BLOOD STAIN CHILD.
In 2001, BLOOD STAIN CHILD recorded two songs, "The World" and "Steel Flame". The first song was used as the theme song for professional wrestler, Kensuke Sasaki and the second song was used as the theme song for the 30th anniversary of NJPW, a professional wrestling group. In July 2002, BLOOD STAIN CHILD released their debut studio album, Silence Of Northern Hell. In October 2002, BLOOD STAIN CHILD was the supporting act for Dream Evil during their tour in Japan. In June 2003, BLOOD STAIN CHILD released their second studio album, Mystic Your Heart, which was co-produced by Anssi Kippo, a popular producer from Finland.
In March 2005, DAIKI left the band and was replaced by SHIROMASA in April. That same year, BLOOD STAIN CHILD released their third studio album, IDOLATOR, which takes a big leap towards mixing metal and electronica genres and which was co-produced by Tue Madsen, a popular producer from Denmark. In 2006, BLOOD STAIN CHILD signed with Dockyard 1 and released Idolator in Europe on November 27, 2006. IDOLATOR was later released in the United States through Locomotive Records on July 17, 2007.
In April 2007, BLOOD STAIN CHILD announced the addition of a new vocalist, SADEW, and a new guitarist, G.S.R. In July 18, 2007, BLOOD STAIN CHILD released their fourth studio album, MOZAIQ, in Japan, which was also co-produced by Tue Madsen. It was then released in Europe on July 20, 2007 with an exclusive bonus track "Cosmic Highway". The album introduced a more unique style and increased the use of electro elements (mainly trance) mixed with metal, creating their unique style of trance metal.
Since the release of MOZAIQ, the band has been performing live shows in Japan, Europe, and the U.S. The band is currently in the process of producing their next album. The track "ETERNAL ProtOTypE-D" was released as a demo on June 13, 2009.
On June 12, 2010, RYU announced on his official blog that SADEW withdrew from the band due to personal reasons. Drummer VIOLATOR left the band as well, in order to take care of family business. RYU stated that the band will announce its new line-up soon, and that the band will keep evolving and will continue to go strong and reach for new levels.
On July 21, 2012, SOPHIA officially announced that she is leaving BLOOD STAIN CHILD. New singer KiKi joined the band on December 3.
A notable feature of BLOOD STAIN CHILD is their tendency to incorporate both dance and trance related themes and elements into their music. The band's sound includes death vocals complemented at times by clean vocals.

Electricity
Blood Stain Child Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dream away sleep away
Weep away sweep away
Reaching out for the stars
All your love all your hate
All your sickness you're fake
Tiny minds I devour
My ambitions decisions
Illusions my arrows
Go high in the sky
Challenging destiny
I'm a voice in the desert
Can you hear me now?
Crawling shadows
Haunting my sleep
Keep on breathing
Wake up
All your love all your hate
All your sickness you're fake
Tiny minds I devour
Dyin' a little inside
My ambitions decisions
Illusions my arrows
Go high in the sky
Challenging destiny
Crawling shadows
Haunting my sleep
Keep on breathing
Wake up
Sudden acceleration
Fading gravity
Radiant transmissions
Electricity
Rising up from beyond
I can feel your heartbeat
Stretching out your hand
I knew you'd try to find me
Crawling shadows
Haunting my sleep
Keep on breathing
Wake up
Run away far away
Dream away sleep away
Weep away sweep away
Reaching out for the stars
All your love all your hate
All your sickness you're fake
Tiny minds I devour
Dyin' a little inside
My ambitions decisions
Illusions my arrows
Go high in the sky
Challenging destiny
I'm a voice in the desert
Can you hear me now?
The lyrics of the song “Electricity” by Blood Stain Child are about running away from reality, escaping into dreams, and wanting to reach for the stars. The singer is trying to distance themselves from the negativity and narrow-mindedness of society, represented by the “tiny minds” that they devour. The lyrics paint a picture of a bleak world that is causing the singer to die a little inside, but they are challenging destiny and pushing forward with their ambitions and decisions.
Towards the end of the song, the tone changes to a more positive one. The singer talks about suddenly feeling a sense of acceleration and rising up from beyond. They feel a connection with someone, as if they can feel their heartbeat, and stretching out their hand, knowing that person would try to find them. The idea of electricity helps bring the song out of the darkness - representing hope and a sudden surge of energy.
Overall, the lyrics suggest an individual's search for hope and meaning, and the struggle to achieve a goal, even if it's just the reaching for the stars. This may be symbolic of the struggle to make a name for oneself, or to escape from the mundane.
