Overview
Prior to the transfer announcement to Avex in 2010, separately from Gackt's solo career was organized a band "Yellow Fried Chickenz", which name refers to human cowardice.[1] Although in the beginning it was meant to be a solo project, a new band was founded.[2][3] The first event by the band was the male-only concert on March 21, 2010, at Kawasaki's Citta Club.[4][5] Besides the nationwide tour in June and August,[6] from July 16, Gackt with the band made his first appearance touring Europe, performing at sold-out clubs in London, Paris, Barcelona, Munich, and Bochum.[7][8]
In July and August of 2011, the band toured Europe for the second time, besides previous cities, also visiting Cologne, Amsterdam, Berlin, Budapest, Warszawa, Leipzig, Stockholm and Moscow,[9] and later toured across Japan.[10][11][12][13] With both parts from the tour was donated revenue to the Japanese Red Cross. A year later on July 4, at the concert in Nippon Budokan the group was disbanded.[14][15]
Several records were released from the band, a live album in 2011 from the 2010 European recording, studio album in 2012, two singles, and several video recordings.[16]
