UnsraW were a metal band formed in 2006 by 勇企 (Yuuki) and 匠 (Shou). They were soon joined by 准 (Jun), 哲 (Tetsu), and 礼 (Rai, formerly 刹戯 [Setsuki] of JOKER). Their first seven lives were all secret shows with their first live being on July 6 at Takadanobaba AREA. On August 23, UnsraW held their first one-man, titled Gate of Death, which was a free live to commemorate their formation. Shortly after on August 30, they released their first maxi-single, -9-, limited to 1,000 copies, which sold out in less than a couple weeks.
After several live shows and in-store events, UnsraW released their second maxi-single "Gate of Death on October 25, which was limited to 1,000 copies also, and sold out in pre-sale. On December 20, they released their first mini-album entitled Spiral Circle consisting of the songs included in their earlier maxi-singles along with an introduction track. Spiral Circle came in two types, each with a different PV as well as a different live clip. It sold out in pre-sale just as Gate of Death. It was also re-released with three additional songs as Spiral Circle 〜Complete〜, making this their first full-length album. A lot of the songs included on these releases were new versions of CoЯe The Child songs.
In 2007 UnsraW released three mini-albums: Calling, ABEL, and KEIN. Due to the popularity of ABEL and KEIN, they sold out and a second-pressing consisting of both albums combined, as ABEL/KEIN, was released with a bonus track, Eve.
In spring 2008, Yuuki became ill with pneumonia, starting a band hiatus. He overcame his illness and the band continued activities in 2009, kicking it off with two lives at Takadanobaba AREA on August 22 and 23. By late September, they also released a new single, REBORN.
On January 13, 2010, it was announced that Rai would be leaving UnsraW on February 27 after their European tour which included stops in the Netherlands, Sweden, France, and Germany. On that day, they announced their two new members, 円 (Madoka) and 迅 (Jin). Jin was previously their support bassist during the European tour after the departure of Jun. They held a one-man live on April 19, 2010 called TRACE OF GUILT in the Takadanobaba AREA. On March 3, 2011, UnsraW announced their disbandment following the departure of Yuuki. The band played their remaining scheduled shows thereafter.

UnsraW Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tada omoi
Kaono naihitono mure
Ameni utare
Myakuwo otohi seijakunonaka
Fuini tou
Umare ochita Hitsuzenno riyuu
Kizukanaimama
Ikuatemo naku yamini dakareru
Aimaina kotaeni afuredasu namida
Daremo Imawo Sokoni sutete
Hitoriwo osoreta Yoruni wakarewo
Hieta Amewa Imamo Kizuwo fukame
Hitoride Kakaeta hizawo oroshi Arukou
Mou nijimu Omoideno youni chigireta uso
Mou nijimu kotono nai
Shinda udeto nageku jidaiwo
The lyrics to UnsraW's song ALIVE paint a picture of someone who is lost, struggling to find their way and understand the reason for their existence. The first few lines describe a sinking feeling as they take a deep breath, surrounded by a crowd of strangers in a place where they don't belong. They hear their own heartbeat, loud and clear in the quiet, and suddenly they realize that they were born for a reason, but as they start to piece it together, it slips away from them. They feel like they're drowning in darkness, held down by a cold rain that washes away their tears. Everyone else seems to be moving forward, but they're alone in the night, afraid of what will happen next. They are left with memories that are distorted and fragmented, and a feeling of mourning for a lost time that they cannot retrieve.
The song is a powerful metaphor for the struggle we all face when we try to make sense of our lives, and the pain that comes from feeling disconnected or alone. The lyrics illustrate the difficulty of finding meaning in a world that is constantly changing, and the pain of being left behind. However, there is also a glimmer of hope in the song, as the singer decides to keep moving forward, to keep walking through the rain and the darkness, even if it means carrying their pain with them. Ultimately, the song is a meditation on the complexity and beauty of life, and the courage it takes to face the unknown.
