Band

Formed in April 2007 , BREAKERZ is a J-rock trio that is made up of 3 gorgeous & extremely talented guys : frontman vocalist DAIGO & guitarists AKIHIDE and SHINPEI .

BREAKERZ started off as DAIGO and SHINPEI's project . Meeting through a mutual friend and various recording sessions , they worked together to make a demo . DAIGO is in charge of music and lyrics while SHINPEI is in charge of arrangements .

In the span of 1 month , they created 40 songs . Later on , they are joined by DAIGO's longtime friend who has worked many times with him in his band , songwriting , playing guitar and singing chorus . That is AKIHIDE & the 3 of them joined together to form BREAKERZ .

The origins of BREAKERZ's name means "wanting to destroy" or "destroying once & for all" & connects breaking through genres & barriers . The original band's name was first spelled with an S but it was later changed to Z adopting the letter from B'z , which SHINPEI's a massive big fan of the duo .

Incidentally , the band's name was derived even before SHINPEI joined .

BREAKERZ's goal was to be like the musicians that they admire/respect such as hyde & Himuro Kyosuke .

All arrangements are credited under BREAKERZ as so but it is the composer of the song who leads the arrangement , while the rest of the members fine tune the song while utilising their own ideas .

Their music can't be described in just one word . It's a fusion mix of AKIHIDE's UK rock guitar sounds & SHINPEI's American rock guitar sounds which're both combined with DAIGO's somewhat sexy lush seductive voice xD .

Despite having 2 guitarists in the group , AKIHIDE & SHINPEI have distinct display of flair with their guitar/s while onstage . AKIHIDE has been described as a guitarist that plays delicate pitch sounds & puts up unique performances while SHINPEI has been described as a guitarist who performs aggressively and powerfully .

The band's historic debut is on 6 June 2007 with their first single WAKE UP MY SOUL / THE TRAIN's GONE ... became available on iTunes Japan .

BREAKERZ is signed by ZAIN Records , a member of the Being Giza Group .

The trio made their major debut with their self-titled debut album on July 25th 2007 . Their first live performance took place at SHIBUYA BOXX on August 5th 2007 . During live performances , the guys often wear prayer bead bracelets which were made by DAIGO's late maternal grandma .

BREAKERZ doesn't have a permanent bassist nor a drummer in their duty roaster , so they use various support members when comes to recording of their material & also in live performances too .

In Spring 2013 , BREAKERZ went on hiatus in which each member pursued solo activities and after their 1st countdown live BREAKERZ COUNTDOWN LIVE 2014-2015 concluded , BREAKERZ announced that they were making a full comeback and restarted their band related activities in mid 2015 with the release of a new single , a new album & a new live tour which they have dubbed as the trilogy comeback .

BREAKERZ celebrates their 10th anniversary in 2017 with the release of Ikusen no Meikyuu de Ikusen no Nazo wo Toite in January followed by BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- which consists of them doing 10 concerts with 10 different artistes .

And in July they will release their new single Yume Monogatari on 12th July before a duo back to back concert BREAKERZ Debut 10th Anniversary 【BREAKERZ X】 MEMORY & PROMISE will take place on 15th and 16th July respectively .

10 RANDOM FACTS ON SHINPEI

1) SHINPEI is the youngest in the group

3) SHINPEI has 13 guitars , in which 6 of them which are used to write songs at home & the rest are used for recording the group's material

After SHINPEI has purchased a brand new Sugi SH485 , the number has since been changed to 14 guitars

4) His given name means "modest peace" (It was in order for him to become a modest & peaceful person . So his parents named him like so)

5) SHINPEI is in B'z fanclub even though a lot of times during MC sessions , DAIGO said SHINPEI's not lol

10) SHINPEI had a dog which's called Chappy . Chappy was a Pomeranian & it was born on 24th Feb 2010





The origin of Chappy's name was due to the fact that SHINPEI raised a light brown puppy , since light brown means Chairoi in Japanese

Just like BOSS-chan & Agubi-kun , SHINPEI talked about Chappy a fair bit on his blog but sadly in early May 2013 , Chappy passed away from an accident as what SHINPEI wrote on his blog . RIP Chappy

I probably should go listen to SKY-HI's Enter the Dungeon & check it out since both of them closed off Sat's 2nd VS Live with it , alongside with B.R.Z ~Ashita e no Kakehashi~

I think BREAKERZ picked a good choice regarding B.R.Z ~Ashita e no Kakehashi~ as it's 1 if not their only song to have subtle rapping verses & SKY-HI raps so it makes sense

Rap isn't the style of music I prefer. But SKY-HI created some great songs. Enter the Dungeon is one of them.

[KarenPang]

Rap music is not easy to get into although I like some of it as well such as Hilcrhyme's music

And thanks for linking me to SKY-HI's Enter the Dungeon , I will check it out

DAIGO shockingly updated his blog again where he talked about him hanging out with Oriental Radio / RADIOFISH's Fujimori & Golden Bomber's Utahiroba Jun last night

AKIHIDE updated his blog on Mon

白い踊り子。

風に揺れる梅の花。
春の準備をしている蕾たち。
ゆっくりでも確実に季節は巡ってゆく事を
改めて思う朝の道。

さて先日はBREAKERZ十番勝負-VS-2本目、
ZEPP TOKYOにてSKY-HIさんでした。
まさに異種格闘技戦。
SKY-HIさんのカラフルで素敵なステージに魅了されて。
自分達のステージでも音を味わい楽しみ奏でて参りました。
お会いした、応援をくれた皆様
ありがとうございました。

そんなこんなで巡る日々。
春が来るという事は
吐き出すこの白い息もやがて見えなくなって
だけど、それを懐かしむ、って事もまず無いと思って
明日は冷たい風の中だからこそ見つけられる自分の呼吸を
いつもよりちょっと大切に眺めようかと思います。

それでは、、、
良い夢と心地良き朝を。

I kind of expected VAMPS to be included but Kuraki Mai is a bit unexpected .

I think seeing that Acid Black Cherry being excluded from the list , I'm quite shocked on this actually considering that DAIGO considered yasu extremely important in his life (aside from hyde) :x

I thought Miyano Mamoru might be included but guess not either D:

SHINPEI is in a meeting right now



https://twitter.com/shinpei_brz/stat...39826434510851

I really hope it's BREAKERZ related matters SHINPEI are discussing & considering BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- will finish end of April , I do hope they will plan something special in July

Also I said in the previous post I was disappointed if not surprised Acid Black Cherry is not in the list but I forgot that their 10th anniversary is also in July

Hmm maybe Acid Breakerz Cherry will be revived back again ? Back in 2013 , I wanted to go for it but it was held on a weekday -_-

And Kuraki Mai is the only lady solo artiste in the BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- lineup too

[KarenPang]

Kuraki Mai & VAMPS' websites have already published about BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS-

team brz fanclub members can already ballot tickets for the last 2 announced BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- dates , starting from today at 6pm Japan time until 22nd Feb ; 11.59pm Japan time

Results & payment of successful ballot applications will be from 25th Feb - 1st March

GLAY should be the most difficult to get tickets wise with them being such a big heavyweight & let alone , BREAKERZ saved the best for last , literally

[KarenPang]

DAIGO once again updated his blog

http://ameblo.jp/daigoblog/entry-12246630179.html

This time round , DAIGO talked about all 10 dates of BREAKERZ 10 Shunen 10ban Shoubu -VS- & he mentioned a bit about BREAKERZ's 10th anniversary

DAIGO in the studios recording a song (hopefully for their next single ?)



Also epic throwback photo of DAIGO when he was 20 & when he was still in JZEIL



Major LOL LOL LOL



What a big difference to say the least
