semi-active時々活動add to list
Lu:natic forms in Osaka (大阪)大阪 by Kijin and Kei.
Guitarist Tokkiy and drummer Sigezo are recruited from a former band in which Kijin and Kei participated(?).
At this time, the band releases a 4-member photo with vocalist Sachi conspicuously absent. It seems that he had seceded sometime prior.
Oneman, Haijin Kikei Rakuenuta (廃人奇形楽園歌), is held. A two-type live-limited CD is sold.
Lu:natic temporarily pauses activities.
It's assumed, but unconfirmed, that this is the live at which the band's activity pause began (and also the live at which drummer Sigezo seceded). However, it's also theoretically possible that this was the band's revival live.
Drummer Sigezo secedes by this time (although it may have been earlier).
Vocalist Tomo joins.
At some point in late 2010, drummer Nao joins the band.
Vocalist Tomo secedes the band without explanation. There wasn't an official announcement—instead, his blogs, and references to him on their OHP, were simply removed.
A support vocalist, Isamu (力) joins.
This role seems to be live support only. The track the band has featured on the Stand up Sonic! omnibus definitely sounds like Kijin, so it does not appear that Isamu (力) actually recorded with the band.
According to the band's official history, Kijin unveils his “secret band(???),” PalaPsycho, in which he is vocalist, around this time.
As the name was taken from a Ru:natic song, it would appear that this was a test run of Kijin acting as vocalist for Ru:natic, just under a different name.
Support vocalist Isamu (力) secedes the band at some point in early 2011, and bassist Kijin takes over as vocalist.
Drummer Nao secedes.
Guitarist Kei pauses activity.
Ru:natic resumes activities.
At some point in 2012, guitarist Kei officially secedes from the band due to personal reasons. Bassist Shunka (舜華) joins around the same time. The release of a new mini-album is announced.

V. KIJIN / G. Tokkiy / G. Kei / Support D. Shima (玲眞-Shima-)
Ru:natic is a semi-active visual kei band in Osaka. They are part of the kote kei subgenre. They have been active since 2007.
This is not a put-down to the former vocalists, but I'm glad it turned out the way it did, Kijin ended up being by the perfect vocalist for this project. He has beautiful cleans, deep gutturals, really manic-sounding shouts, and that wicked Kyouka-style whistle scream. Also wonderful bass tone, nice and crunchy and cuts through nice while also having a great low end.
