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.
STARVING MOON
UnsraW Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kifuku suru hebi shimetsuketai yokubou
Hora daeki tsuke
Akai tsuki ga mioroshita ano haru no yoru
The Moon light
Hanabira wa midareta ai tadareta uso
Karamu yubisaki wa furachi na kimi to mukachi na
wake
Shibaritsuketa nakigoe to kurai heya wo uzume tsukusu you
Todokanai omoi wa kakusezu ni yagate kageri michiru...
Kazaritsuketa kubi ni chikara wo kometeikou
Kasane awase no futari
Kowareyuku omoi kimi wo hanasanai aa
Furan shita kago no naka futari
Modorenu yume wo miyou
Mezamenai genjitsu de ii sa
Kuru koto no nai asahi . . .
I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG.
FEAR IS IN MY HEART WHEN I STOP IT CUZ HE CAN NEVER
FUCK OFF, I don't wanna anything anymore.
Rape me you "THE AGONY"I'm ready.
The startving moon would be satisfied
By our decomposed bodies.
The lyrics of UnsraW's "STARVING MOON" tell a haunting story of desire, deception, and destructive obsession. The first verse speaks of a "starving moon" that seems to crave a specific type of desire, which is embodied by a "snake" that wants to be restrained and controlled. The singer addresses this object of desire, telling it to "burn," likely referring to the passion and intrigue that this person or thing evokes. The image of the "red moon" that appears on a spring night further underscores the sensuality and danger of this desire.
The second verse introduces a more ominous tone, with the singer describing being trapped in a dark room, perhaps with the object of their obsession. The image of a "decorated neck" suggests that the person is being controlled or manipulated in some way, and the singer refers to "our feelings" as they both become more and more consumed by this intense connection. The repetition of "I can't return" and "let's dream a dream we can't wake up from" underscores the sense of danger and destruction that the relationship represents.
