cali≠gari disbands
cali≠gari is an active visual kei band in Ibaraki. They are part of the Misshitsu kei subgenre. They have been active since 1993.
i think i will always love 秀児 the most, there is something about him that deeply resonates with me. somehow i feel like i can understand his perspective of the world the best.
i really like cali≠gari, i don't understand japanese tho... and there are not many translations to english or spanish that's my main language, if only their song were translated by someone to english...
La'royque'de zavy have their own page already. I'll add it to their member histories, since I see it's not here.
I carry a super powerfully burning love for this band ever since i discovered them thanks to Goatbed, their music is super cool and so are the visuals in their MVs aahhh 💖 (◠△◠✿)
