Read Full Bio ↴There are several artists named "Kyo", and they share with one page.

1) Band: Since Yvelines College where the two brothers Fabien and Florian Dubos and their two friends Nicolas Chassagne and Benoît Poher discovered that they shared the same passion for Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Rage, Soundgarden... and the graphic universe of Japanese mangas, Kyo has existed. The four boys honed their talents in concerts at schools and various venues in the Paris area. In 97, they met their future manager, who, convinced of their potential, got the band their first contract with Sony edition. The professional adventure was set in concrete with their entry as the first local signature in the Jive/repertory Zomba France. 2003 was definitely KYO's year. The French pop quartet was nominated numerous times at NRJ's annual music awards, winning best French album, song, and group of the year honors. All the hubbub was over when KYO's second album, Le Chemin (The Way), and its title track/lead single, which dominated the European charts all year and made stars out of the four photogenic fellows from Paris. Nicolas Chassagne, Benoît Poher, and brothers Florian Dubos and Fabien Dubos had already made a splash with their self-titled début in 2000, but it was the textured, slightly electronicized pop of "Le Chemin" -- a duet with Dutch songstress Sita -- that really established their slick, Depeche Mode-meets-BBMak sound.

2)Solo artist: 京 (Kyo) is a current member of Dir en grey, has also released his own solo work, accompanied by books of his poems.

3)Solo artist: Another Kyo is a prominent figure of the Japanese rock scene. Kyo has provided vocals for many bands since the explosion in Japanese rock bands of the 80's, including Yokosuka Saver Tiger, D'erlanger, die in cries and most recently BUG, in addition to a solo career spanning seven albums and eleven years.

4) Solo artist: Korean artist with a new album " KYO 1st Single Album (DCALCOMANIE)"

5) Kyo is the experimental brainchild of Copenhagen-based artist and composer Frederik Valentin and Hannes Norrvide of synth provocateurs Lust for Youth. Together they released a handful of tapes and records through Copenhagen's Posh Isolation.

6) A Eurodance act form the early 1990s, hich had a minor hit with the song "Keep in touch with life"

L'Assaut Des Regards
Kyo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Capturer l'horizon où tout semble désert
Il faut savoir se taire pour en tirer le son
Je ne saurais vous dire si la lumière est là
Allez savoir pourquoi

Si loin de ma chair
De nos repères
Aussi grand qu'on espère

De guerre en guerre

Tous ces écrans de fond à l'assaut des regards
On a peine à y croire mais c'est ça la raison
Aux rivières de Passion qui traversent nos terres
J'irai creuser le fond jusque dans la lumière

Si loin de ma chair
De nos repères
Aussi grand qu'on espère
De guerre en guerre

Si loin de ma chair
De nos repères

Aussi grand qu'on espère
De guerre en guerre

Overall Meaning

In Kyo's song L'Assaut Des Regards, the lyrics express a sense of longing and searching for something beyond the current reality. The first line "Capturer l'horizon où tout semble désert" reflects this idea of trying to capture something intangible, the horizon appearing deserted, but still worth pursuing. The following line "Il faut savoir se taire pour en tirer le son" suggests the importance of silence in order to hear and understand this intangible horizon. The artist is acknowledging the need to quiet the noise and distractions of the world in order to fully experience and understand what is beyond.

The next few lines "Je ne saurais vous dire si la lumière est là / Allez savoir pourquoi" express an ambiguity in the artist's understanding of what lies beyond the horizon. Although unsure if the light is present, they still feel compelled to seek it out. The repetition of the lines "Si loin de ma chair / De nos repères / Aussi grand qu'on espère / De guerre en guerre" creates a haunting melody and represents the idea of always being far from one's comfort zone, continuously striving for something greater, yet constantly grappling with the challenges and battles along the way.

Overall, the lyrics in L'Assaut Des Regards convey the artist's longing for something beyond the present, while also acknowledging the difficulty in fully understanding and experiencing this. The idea of silence and letting go of distractions in order to hear and see clearly is a common theme throughout the song.
