The band released their first 4-song demo with 4 tracks in 1993, followed by their first single "DOLL/LIGHT FOR CLOSED YOUR EYES" the same year, and quickly rose to popularity, despite a constantly changing band line up.
SIAM SHADE released their first full-length, self titled album in 1994. The album marked the SIAM SHADE recording debut of guitarist Daita Itoh, a constant force to be reckoned with on the Japanese indie rock scene.
SIAM SHADE was influenced by the Indies band, Luna Sea, and many of their earlier songs were similar to Luna Sea's style. However, after a couple of years, they began to move toward their own unique style. Although the band generally played progressive rock, they also wrote pop songs and metal songs. Some of SIAM SHADE's progressive rock songs were inspired by the works of Dream Theater.
The band, consisting of Hideki on vocals, Junji on drums, Daita on guitar, Natchin on bass, and Kazuma on guitar and back-up vocals, went on to release 7 full length albums in addition to several singles, DVDs, and four best of collections: SIAM SHADE VIII: B-Side Collection, SIAM SHADE IX: A-Side Collection, the currently out of print and absurdly expensive SIAM SHADE X: Perfect Collection before finally calling it quits after their 2002 tour, and the latest SIAM SHADE XI: COMPLETE BEST ~HEART OF ROCK~ which tracklisting was made out from the favorite songs of all fans, result of an open poll done in their official website.
This last best of was released previously to their One Night Reunion on November 18th, 2007 at the Nippon Budohkan after 5 years of disbanding. The ~HEART OF ROCK~ Live was done as a tribute to their deceased manager Shinichi Nakamura.
They are now back to their own musical projects individually.

SIAM SHADE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
かき乱すこの夜が
跡形も無く君に絡ませ
焦げ付く愛をその胸で受け止めて
余す事無く
何もかも飲み干してくれ
oh yeah 確かめたい
どうしたら消せるこの切なさは
この胸のトキメキ引きずり出され
何処までも君とならイケそう
狂い出した時計の様に少しずつ
Deeper this love
So gimme some passion
I want heaven
動き出す I'm goin' down
Gimme heaven
避わさないで髪をほどいて
I want heaven
胸を射す your precious sound
Gimme in heaven
この愛に身を投げ出してくれ
いつだって恋は気まぐれに
始まるものさそう理由なんて
後から必ず考えとくから
仮初めの時間でも構わない
逆さまに堕として行く
この手に Deeper with you
So gimme some passion
I want heaven
底の無い I'm goin' down
Gimme heaven
飾らないで加速を抱いて
I want heaven
終わらない your precious sound
Gimme in heaven
Baby I want it now
I want heaven
I wanna jumpin'Gimme in heaven
I want heaven
Nothing but heaven
Gimme in heaven
Gimme emotion
I want heaven
底の無い I'm goin' down
Gimme heaven
飾らないで加速を抱いて
I want heaven
終わらない your precious sound
Gimme in heaven
I want heaven I want heaven
Gimme in heaven
I want heaven
Nothing but heaven
Gimme in heaven
この愛に身を投げ出してくれ
The lyrics to SIAM SHADE's song Heaven express a desire for a passionate and profound connection with someone, to the point of surrendering oneself completely to their love. The lyrics suggest a burning need to be consumed by the other person, to be united with them so deeply that nothing else in the world matters. The lines "Deeper this love" and "So gimme some passion" emphasize the wish for an intense, soulful love that grows deeper over time. The chorus repeats the phrase "I want heaven" as a way to express the idea that reaching such a connection would be the ultimate achievement in life.
The lyrics also acknowledge that love can be unpredictable and irrational, and that it might not make sense to outsiders. The line "恋は気まぐれに始まるものさ" translates to "Love begins on a whim," suggesting that there might not be a logical or rational explanation for why two people fall in love. However, the lyrics still advocate for taking the risk and giving in to those emotions, even if the love is temporary or fleeting.
Overall, the lyrics to Heaven by SIAM SHADE encapsulate the exhilarating and tumultuous feelings of falling in love and the desire to experience a deep, all-consuming connection with someone.
