Guruguru Eigakan 「グルグル映画館」Nonsense Imi wa Nai Kedo Iga ga Aru 「ナンセンス意味は無いケド意莪が有る」

Guruguru Eigakan was an AnguraKei band formed in 1995 by Amano Tombimaru and Yoshikawa Masatoshi. They were known for their traditional Japanese influenced music, and their white makeup combined with early 1900's Japanese uniforms. In 2003, all members minus Amano left, and this caused a change in direction for the band. Previously, the lead role was quite uncertain, as all members shared vocals, and Yoshikawa being the one in the center. After the departure of Yoshikawa and the other members, the band became more Amano based, as he moved to the center of attention, and provided more vocal roles. This song is from their first lineup.
They eventually broke up in 2012, due to Amano's health issues. Eventually, he died in 2013 due to complications. The other members formed a session band playing Guruguru songs, known as "The Tissue", but paused activities.
Currently, Yoshikawa is in Taiheiyou Belt, which still has a strong following. Gokimi, their last bassist, had a band called GalapagosS, which he still is a member of. He is also in Tokyo Heroes, which is currently on hiatus. Guitarist Shin Numakura is now in "The Thinners", along with ex Sex Android vocalist and bassist Yu-Dai and Junro.
Despite nowadays being relatively unknown in the VisualKei scene, Guruguru Eigakan held a pretty stable influence on VisualKei. Their influence can be seen in DEZERT, GossiP, The GazettE (their Matina stuff), and Kalavinka

Many of you may have noticed the change in the name of my channel. That's because this really isn't a personal channel anymore. I'm uploading stuff for the enjoyment of others, and the preservation of certain Vkei bands. I'm also cleaning up the descriptions of my videos so any misinformation is corrected, and more insight into the bands are shown. Also, I'll be focused mostly on old indie bands. I don't want to get in trouble with copyright so no major label bands (unless the song is from their indies era) will be uploaded. Also, I'm gonna be wary with newer indie bands, so I won't get copyright striked. VisualKei isn't exactly dying, but a lot of fans seem to be out of touch with the basic roots. Ask any GazettE fan, and most will know songs like "Filth in the Beauty", but many might not know "Sentimental Na Onigokko" any further than "the pv where Ruki vomited". Moreover, they may not know of their contemporaries, such as Cuartet, or their early influences, such as Kagerou, Gill'e Cadith, or Guruguru Eigakan. I view VisualKei as "high art", and to appreciate it properly, I feel you have to appreciate the roots. That's the main focus of this channel now. Uploading VisualKei songs for the culture.
