Biography
AREA51 was born in 2003 by Yoichiro Ishino (Gt) in pursuit of his ideal heavy metal music. After several member changes, the first album "Ankh" was released in August 2005, with noteworthy domestic sales.
In "BURRN!", Japan's most reputable Hard Rock/Heavy Metal magazine, the album was introduced as one of six of Japan's best Neo-Classical Metal albums.
Other media have also reacted, including sports newspapers and portal sites, who are not usually that interested in Metal. In addition to the composition, vocals and playing, singer Kate's fashion is also receiving much attention and support.
Distribution through iTunes Store has started in 22 countries around the world! If you have iTunes Store where you live, you can check out and purchase our music. It's so exciting and amazing to think that our album is readily available to so many people around the world...
