VARB has announced on their OHP that they will be disbanding on March 11th. On that same day, Hiron will be retiring from music. At the event (which is sponsored by VARB), both 独立国歌-Ashe’- and J∀CK11 (Hiron’s former bands) will be performing for a one day revival.

This message was posted on their OHP:

VARB Disbands
At this time, we have an important announcement for everyone.

As a result of numerous discussions between the members of VARB, and due to things such as a gap forming between us in respect to our musical direction, we are finding it difficult to continue on with the band, and therefore have decided to disband after our live at the event on March 11th.

Furthermore, vocalist Hiron has decided to take a road that separates him from the music scene, and will be retiring from band activities as of March.

Our decision is a result of all of us talking about it as much as we could with much trouble, and we deeply apologize that things have reached this point.

On the day that VARB disbands and that Hiron retires from music, we have a special project planned… the bands that Hiron has been in the past, 独立国歌-Ashe’- and J∀CK11 will be having one day revival lives.

We will be truly happy if we can gather a large group of people for our final live, and make it a climatic day.

All the members of VARB
