SERIAL⇔NUMBER down to one
21
Oct, 2010
This kind of came as a shock to me this morning, seems like SERIAL⇔NUMBER has lost 3 of their 4 members! Shiyuu, Hibiki & Kai will be departing after their live at Takadanobaba AREA on 27th December. Jin the vocalist, is the remaining member.
They posted messages on their site. Jin went back and forth with his feelings but seems like he will try to continue with SERIAL⇔NUMBER. If that means make it a project or adding new members – we would have to wait and see. The departing members all say sorry for the sudden announcement, and to please support them until they say good bye in December.
How many are fans of SERIAL⇔NUMBER? Did this come to be a shock for you as well?

GOTHIC NUMBER
1
Sep, 2009
From HearJapan:
Yokohama, Japan – September 2, 2009 – After successfully adding 80 visual kei releases, HearJapan, the digital music store for Japanese music, added the visual kei band Serial Number in March of this year. The band is known for having a light sound, colorful costumes and being an all-around fun band, dubbed ‘oshare kei’ by their fans.
Today, the band showed that there is more to them than just ‘oshare kei’. Serial Number unveiled an alter ego band consisting of the same members called “Gothic Number”. If Serial Number represents the light side of visual kei, Gothic Number represents the dark force. Filled with heavy guitar riffs and screaming, Gothic Number marks a dirty departure for the band, although the lyrics still retain Serial Number’s playful side. Their first single, ‘Wa Ra,’ is a digital-only download available internationally exclusively via HearJapan. The single costs 150 yen and can be downloaded from any country in high-quality mp3 format.
HearJapan has also made available today three other visual kei releases. These include re-releases of Kisaki project feat. Jyui (Vidoll), Birushana, Shiru de Rais & Iron, and Piass with Ra’s Testars. HearJapan promises a steady stream of visual kei releases in the future, including more digital-only releases to meet the demand from fans around the globe.

Serial Number loses Kazune
1
Jul, 2009
シリアル⇔NUMBER (Serial⇔NUMBER) have announced that on August 2nd, their guitarist 和音 (Kazune) will be leaving the band.
Kazune has stated that since last year, he has been thinking and worrying about his future. As time wore on, he gradually realized that his direction is not the same as the other members in the band, and he feels that it is impossible for him to continue on in the band with having such a different opinion in direction. Therefore, he made the decision to leave after the band’s summer tour had come to an end.
Throughout his four years in Serial Number he has experienced fun things, painful things, happy moments, and regretful times. He loves everyone who has been involved in the band, from the members, to the staff to the fans.
He will continue to play his guitar, smiling, all the way until the end.
