UnsraW

Unsraw is a Japanese rock band currently signed under the label Speed Disk. They were formed in July of 2006.

Biography
After the dissolution of the independent band CoЯe the Child, vocalist Yuuki and drummer Shou started a new project called Unsraw. The band performed several "secret lives" with no releases, and were scouted by Speed Disk, a record label specializing in bands of the visual kei style.

After signing to Speed Disk, Unsraw released the singles "-9-" and "Gate of Death". Both singles were limited to a 1000-copy pressing, and sold out quickly. In late 2006, the band released its first EP, Spiral Circle in two types, which also sold out soon after release.

Beginning in 2007, Unsraw began releasing material in Europe through import label CLJ Records, with their first full-length album Spiral Circle -Complete-, and concert DVD Screaming Birthday. The band went on to release another single leading to a pair of EPs in the summer of 2007 titled Abel and Kein (a reference to Cain and Abel). Abel was released in August, while Kein was released on September 26th. The two EPs were released as a single album in Europe with a bonus track, and later in Japan with a differing bonus track.

After a few shows intiating 2008, Yuuki became suddenly ill, unable to perform with the band. The rest of the members performed instrumental shows, not wanting to cancel any performances. In April, it was revealed Yuuki would be returning soon, but that he was still fighting a lung disease, but in May UnsraW announced they will be pausing activities until Yuuki has fully recovered.

In June 2009, UnsraW announced that Yuuki had made a full recovery, and they would be having two return lives scheduled in August to celebrate.

Unfortunately, due to a hand injury acquired in a motorcycle accident on 24 December 2008, bassist Jun decided to withdraw from the band.

After restarting their activities in August, UnsraW announced the release of their first single after one year hiatus. The single will be out on 23 September and will include three songs: Nightmare, Reborn, and Switch.
