Biography
2007–2009: STAR ISSUE and あまざらし era
2007
- In January 2007, STAR ISSUE was formed. The band's name was inspired by "a desire to transmit songs that have a ray of hope, just like periodic magazines and newspapers."[2]
- On January 26, an event for amateur bands was held in Aomori, called "Glucon Vol. 17: Aomori ~JOKER STYLE SUMMIT~" , all under Roland Corporation. Star Issue was the winner band.[2]
After this point, the band would call themselves amazarashi, written in hiragana as あまざらし. In 2008, the band entered the Rainbow Entertainment Label (a subsidiary of A&R) to promote the band. They let their songs play in the background of local radio programs, in order to get attention from the label and form a contract.
Around the time of debut, Akita was not being very social, and had the intention of displaying a very linguistic world view; he expressed his world view through words without publicly showing his face. The CD jacket was designed around this concept, with poetry enclosed in the package. The promotion around the CD was based on the internet, and the band began real activities.
2009
- On February 18, 2009, the EP Hikari, Saikō (光、再考, Light, Reconsidered) was released exclusively within the Aomori prefecture, marking the band's indie debut.
- On June 24, an album inspired by the movie Kani Kōsen, titled Counterattack: Kani Kōsen Movie Inspire Album (反撃。〜映画「蟹工船」インスパイア・アルバム〜), in which the band was featured with the song "Yami no Naka: Yukite Kaheranu" (闇の中 〜ゆきてかへらぬ〜, In The Darkness: I Will Not Hesitate).[3]
- On December 9, the band released the EP 0., with only 500 copies of the CD being released in Aomori. At this time, the digital artist YKBX (Masaki Yokobe, also known as Yokoboxxx) became the band's art director, designing the visual mascot for the release.[4] The character, amazarashi-kun, was based on a teru teru bōzu, a spirit believed to bring rain and a good harvest.
