The current members are Masatoshi "Sho" Ono (vocals), Syu (guitar), Taka who replaced Yu-To in 2009 (bass), YUHKI (keyboard) and JUNICHI (drums.) Veterans of the heavy metal scene, they set to work assembling a band. Syu, known as guitarist for the indie heavy metal bands Valkyr, Animetal and SPINALCORD, where he also served as lead vocalist, and vocalist YAMA-B, who worked with bands Gunbridge and Rekion, originally were joined by keyboardist A (of Valkyr) and drummer Toshihiro Yui (Formerly of Honey Quest and Cemetary.) They soon were to recruit keyboardist Yuhki, of Ark Storm, and drummer Junichi Satoh. After Tsui left in 2006, they recruited yu-to of DELUHI. They were signed to VAP Records. Syu writes music for the band and contributed his deep, roaring vocals, while lead vocalist Yama-B contributes the songwriting, with lyrics and song titles in English. Galneryus has a dress style that borders on the style of visual kei, with medievally styled and leather dress, toting instruments with coloration to match,although recently they have set for a more casual style.
Galneryus' first album was the Rock opera styled Flag of Punishment. Through a few loosely tied songs, this album seems to tell the story of a revolution to gain freedom, and its victories and losses. The second album, Advance to the Fall seems to be more of a straightforward album, which doesn't tell a specific story, but rather tells a collection of smaller stories for the sake of standalone pieces. Cover art for both albums is that of Yoshitaka Amano, artist for the Final Fantasy series of video games.
In 2008, Vocalist YAMA-B left the band due to creative differences. Masatoshi Ono has been announced as the replacement.
Other former temporary members are Yoshinori Kataoka (keyboards), Yusuke (bass)

Attitude to Life
Galneryus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
運命を背負って
この身を捧げてゆく
沸き立つ思いを
この空に曝け出すのさ
護り抜くものは そうさ
明日に繋いでゆこう
たとえ今 露と消えても
終わらない悲しみなど無いことを
君は知っている
息を潜めながら
忍び寄るものがある
運命と偽り この身を蝕んでく
涙も叫びも この空に届けと願う
護るべきものは
君の胸に生き続けてる
ここで今 果てるとしても
君よ 決して苦しまないで
いつの日か太陽が照らすことを
君は知っている
最後に笑えばいい
今を支えるもの
今も信じ続けてるもの
澱みも曇りもない
全てを誇りのために護ろう
たとえ今 露と消えても
君よ 決して諦めないで
終わらない悲しみなど無いことを
君は知っているから
ここで今 果てるとしても
君よ 決して苦しまないで
いつの日か太陽が照らすことを
君は知っている
さあ、迷わず笑え
So, attitude to life Oh
Attitude to life Oh Oh Oh
Galneryus's Attitude to Life is a rock ballad that speaks of perseverance, determination, and hope amid struggles and challenges. The song highlights the singer's decision to carry on with life's journey despite its looming uncertainties. The opening lines depict the vastness of the gray sky as the singer reveals their burden of fate. They exchange their life for a cause they believe in and their surging emotions are willingly bared out to the heavens above. They resolve to protect what's vital to their being and hold onto the present moment, even if it fades like dew.
The chorus emphasizes that, although sadness may seem endless, the singer will not give up. They carry on with the knowledge that every day is an opportunity to experience the sun's warmth and light. As they acknowledge the obstacles that may come their way, the song urges the listener to stand firm, believe, and protect their dignity. The final lines encourage a positive, unwavering attitude towards life and its challenges, no matter how difficult they may seem.

Greatest is a daring statement, but they're high up the list for sure.
