quaff, who were once known for their modern rock'n'roll look and genre-transcending music, have undergone a major line-up change, as well as switching to a more visual kei-based image.

The band announced that all members except guitarist MAKITO will be leaving the band. It was stated that there weren't any personal problems or musical differences, but that the old members have just chosen "a new path."

quaff has now transformed into a quintet. The new members are Mio Kagura on vocals, Renji as the second guitarist, Neu on bass and Iori on drums.

It seems that October 1st will be the last day for the old band members, as well as the introduction for the new ones, with a live performance at CLUB PHASE in Shinjuku with all ten members. It is unknown at this time if the band's music style will also drastically change or if the old members will still continue working in the music industry, but more information should be available soon.
