PROFILE
Kansai-based visual band SINCREA's music is energetic rock with an optimistic sound and emphasis on melody. The high register HAL sings in has caused the band to be likened to early period Janne Da Arc. Though it was slow going at first, the quartet's momentum has been building and it looks like a very bright future lies ahead of them.

BIOGRAPHY
SINCREA's origins go back more than two years before the band's first release. Vocalist HAL and bassist HIRO went to the same middle school and, at a school culture festival, they formed their first band. Drummer KAZI joined aslo, but they disbanded during their third year of high school.

Some time after that, guitarist TOMO reformed the band and, on June 20, 2005, the present manifestation of SINCREA was born. Their live activities were mostly concentrated in the Kansai region though they eventually spread out into the Tokyo area.

Their first one man live, LIVE HELIANTHUS 2007, took place in December of 2007, just after the release of the mini-album HELIANTHUS. In May of 2008 their first maxi-single went on sale and ranked 20th on the Oricon indie charts.

This summer they embarked on a coupling tour with Golden Bomber, "LIVE HELIANTHUS #3" - with Golden Bomber. In addition to their live activities in Japan, they will venture to Europe along with fellow Japanese visual band MANNEQUIN to attend Tsukicon, a Japanese culture convention in Finland. Hailed as the second coming of Janne Da Arc, SINCREA also propagates an air of newness and promise. Visual fans will want to be sure to keep an eye out for this up-and-coming band.
