LIGHT BRINGER

LIGHT BRINGER has become one of Japanese metal's most influential bands in recent memory, having launched the careers of Fuki and hibiki amongst others. Formed in 2005, they debuted on Black-listed Records in 2007, moving to King Records in 2011.

Though they were considered to be a bona fide power metal band by the time of their hiatus, it was once more of a label of convenience than an accurate description of their sound. Mao's keyboards would often overpower the guitars to such an extent, some of the band's early works verged on synthpop.
