Biography[]
摩天楼 (Matenrou) was a short-lived Visual band, they only released a couple of demos then disbanded. It's often remembered because two members of the band, Mana and Közi, founded another band soon after: MALICE MIZER. 摩天楼 (Matenrou)'s songs style is very similar to early MALICE MIZER, with twin guitars melodies and classical influences, because the songwriting was almost entirely handled by Mana and Közi. However the self-titled demo tape had some industrial influences, anticipating the stylistic direction of vocalist Kaie's next band, Dune××××.
