Cinema Bizarre

From left to right: Top: Shin, Yu. Bottom: Romeo, Strify and Kiro.


These five men make up the band known as Cinema Bizarre, Cinema because they like to put on a huge show on stage and Bizarre because when people look at them they think that they are very Bizarre because of the way they dress, their hairstyles and how they do their make-up. The bands look is very similar to the Glam Rock of the 80's and is highly influenced by the Japanese underground culture known as Visual Kei, the bands sound is very Rock,Pop,Electro.

The five members each have their own very unique styles which when meshed with the other members makes one reason people love this band, add their clothing style, with their unique hair styles, over exaggerated make-up and crazy personality's makes this band a future world wide success.

Strify: The vocalist of the band (and the most talkative) is Strify, though he never seems to shut up in interviews he has a way of making anything a good time. He is full of charisma and he always seems to know exactly what to say at the right times, he is EXTREMELY confident and he isn't afraid to show the real him at any time.

Kiro: The bassist of the band and the eldest member though many people find him the cutest because of how short he is and he has such a baby face. Much like Strify he could talk for the world and if Strify isn't talking then you will probably find Kiro is, he loves to joke around and is usually having a laugh with the other members of the band. Kiro is also a Twighlight fanatic! Not only has he watched the first movie twice in English and several times in German he also went and brought the books in English when they FIRST visited the U.S. Kiro probably has the most energy of the band and is usually jumping around just generally being hyper, he is also the stylist of the band.

Yu: The lead guitarist of the band is Yu he is rather quiet at times but when he does speak you can tell him apart instantly, his extremely different look helps too. His look is more Rock than that of the others (even though Romeo is close behind) he is the one you are most likely going to find head banging and just rocking out at the concerts. He loves to go to rock parties more than anything else and he is generally really nice though I dare say people are put off by his extreme look.

Shin: The drummer Shin though he rarely talks in interviews and when in front of the camera he is the total opposite when its just the guys, this super shy and quiet guy turns extremely hyper. If he had a pet parrot he would teach it to beat box and his favourite word in English is Translation. He is the tallest member of the band and he makes Kiro look even smaller than he is, though Shin is the tallest member of the band he is actually the youngest member of the band and is nearly a whole year younger than Kiro.

Romeo: The keyboard player and the newest member of Cinema Bizarre he replaced Luminor when he left (for health reasons) and has seemed to fit in well with the band. Like Yu he leans more to the rock side of their look rather than the glam side and he has a very dark look, he has admitted to being a sex addict but is really sweet and still look for his "Juliet." He is probably the third most talkative member of the band even if he is the newest member, he always has a lot of energy and just like Yu he loves rock parties.

I am aware that Cinema Bizarre have been together since 2005 but I have only just took note of them and their music so what do I think of it? I think they have very unique style (from hair to make-up to clothing to music sound) and their name definitely fits them perfectly, they are not the most amazing band in the world but with the whole package they are going to take the world by storm. They not only create controversy on stage (Kiro kissing the others for example) but they put on spectacular shows whether it be a main show or a DJ set they always know how to get the crowd involved and they were born to perform.
