About 静香

Shizuka (静香(しずか), ; Japanese pronunciation: [ɕizɯᵝka̠]) was a Japanese rock band that was founded in Tokyo around 1992 by Shizuka Miura. The band made mostly atmospheric, psychdelic-noise songs and was regarded for being distinct in the Tokyo psychedelic music scene. The band produced four albums in its eighteen years of existence, and generally remained undocumented and unknown.Shizuka started as a solo musical project by Shizuka Miura (vocals and guitar), but soon she formed a duo with Maki Miura (lead guitar). Afterward, the band Shizuka was formed with the joining of Jun Kosugi (drums) and Tomoya Hirata (bass), who was later replaced with Tetsuya "Seven" Mugishima (bass). Throughout its history, the band had many lineup changes but Shizuka and Maki remained together until Shizuka died in early 2010.Shizuka's musical style was characterized by variations of psychedelic music, acid rock, folk music, free improvisation, and noise rock, some of which were influences from the underground rock scene in Japan. Maki Miura, who was once a member of Les Rallizes Dénudés and Fushitsusha, played a major role in the band's sound as the lead guitarist. Shizuka Miura was the sole singer; her vocals are often ethereal, reverberated, slow and tremulous, characteristics that connoted sadness and a "haunting, gothic atmosphere".Of Shizuka's four albums, Heavenly Persona (天界のペルソナ, Tenkai no Perusona) is a studio album that was released in 1994. The other three were live albums: Live Shizuka (1995); Tokyo Underground 20, Jul '95 (2000), and Traditional Aesthetics (伝承美学, Denshō Bigaku) (2008). They also had some video albums released such as Performance of Secret Songs (秘曲の成績, Hikyoku no Seiseki) in 2009, and Endless Dream (終わりのない夢, Owari no Nai Yume) in 2010. The latter is a visual tribute to Shizuka Miura, which contains one of the last live performances by her group recorded at the live venue ShowBoat in Tokyo on 30 December 2008.
