About Gazette
Gazette or the GazettE (ガゼット, Gazetto), is an indie Japanese rock band of the visual kei variety. The band was formed in early 2002 and is currently signed to PS Company, a notable production company that has also served the likes of 雅-miyavi-, alice nine., and Kagrra,. To many non-fans, they're compared to Dir en grey, but in actuality the bands have very few similarities. This comparison held true for some of the band's older songs such as 'Maximum Impulse' in which they mix dark and heavy verses with joyful and upbeat choruses like on a lot of Dir en grey's songs. However during an interview in the magazine FOOL's MATE, most members have cited Luna Sea to be their favorite and most respected band.

Biography
the GazettE was founded on March 10th 2002 by Uruha, Reita (both formerly of Karasu, Ma'die Kussë, L'ie:Chris, and Kar+te=zyAnose), Ruki (formerly of Mikoto, Ma'die Kussë, L'ie:Chris, and Kar+te=zyAnose), Aoi (former Mervilles and Artia guitarist), and ex-drummer Yune (formerly of La'DeathtopiA, Mervilles, Artia, and Vall'na racill), and current drummer, Kai. In April 2002 they released their first single "Wakaremichi", and two videotapes, released again two months later in a second press. During August and September they released two singles and a VHS. At this time Matina was their record label. They gave their first one-man in the October 2002. In early 2003, Yune decided to leave the band. Kai, the ex-drummer of Mareydi†Creia replaced him.
