GLAY fill baseball stadiums and get thousands of people screaming along in unison, whether to rapid-fire rock or a swooning power ballad. Formed in Hakodate, the group started life as a visual kei unit, clad in eye-catching outfits with hairstyles to match. While their look changed, the build and release of their music remained constant, turning stirring, violin-assisted ballads into J-rock anthems. GLAY's songs come loaded with tension and longing, and the quartet milk every last drop of drama like the rockstars they are.
