Our website is written basically in Japanese,
but I want you to know our music.


Bran was formed in Tokyo back in 1994. Some drummered had played. They have gigs mainly at clubs in central Tokyo area.

They are groping for the music with madness, introversion, violence, delicateness and coting extremely private lyrics with their sound including quietness and motion.


Their first recording was for the compilation album "Abunai Ongaku" (dangerous music) from Osaka indie label "Gyuune Cassette"in 1998 and the band also have a couple of gigs in Osaka every year since then.

Also, Adachi established his own private label "Tonsei Record". He is running the lablel's offifcial Web site "The world of Tonsei Record" ( http://www.tonreco.com ) to distribute original CD-R, cassettes, songs in realplayer format, lyrics, band info and gig schedule.

Bran's first album "Yawaraka na yume" (means Tender Dream) released from Gyuune Casette on July 25, 2001.

Their second album "Akogare to Gensou"(means yearning and fantasy)released from Inundou on May 25,2003.

Still now, about ten live activities per year are performed. The demonstration CD of independence work is released.

*Review from "METROPOLIS"no.388
To anyone who has sampled the Tokyo indie-rock underground, the topsy-turvy world of Bran will be familiar. But to those who haven’t, the slightly disturbed sounds of this three-piece who create “music with madness, introversion, violence, delicateness… and extremely private lyrics including quietness and motion,” could be a surprise. Formed in 1994 by Adachi (guitars, vocals) and Meg (bass) with Kuri on drums, Bran’s debut full-length Yawarakana Yume (“Tender Dream”) looks to the ’60s acid rock of the Doors and Jimi Hendrix for inspiration. “Yume Utsutsu” is a greasy outing of psychedelic blues, while the tortured guitar skronk of “Jibaku” (“Suicide Bomber”) well reflects the content of the song.

-"METROPOLIS" is free paper for foregn people living in Tokyo written in English.You can get at TowerRecords,HMV,and Virgin Mega Store etc in Tokyo.
-"METROPOLIS Web Site" Same contents is here.
