SIGNAL WILL TO DISBAND.

Visual Kei band Signal announced to disband in September.

In April the band’s drummer Raychel announced his departure from the band after their live at Ikebukuro EDGE on June 28th. As if that wasn't enough the band just stated that they will stop all activities after their final one man live on September 14th at Meguro Live Station – the same live house they had held their very first live two years ago.

Actually the members didn’t plan to disband but after many discussions they came to the end that they don’t want to continue as Signal if it’s not the five of them.

They are very sorry for such a sudden announcement and apologize for not being able to keep their promise to continue making music as Signal.

Raychel didn't comment on the disbanding yet but check out the other comments below:

ShinyAWe’ve just announced that Signal will disband after the live on September 14th.I wanted to see a wider scenery and I wanted to take you along. I’m sorry I couldn’t make it come true. We have been really selfish but even in the end we betrayed the people who supported us and make them sad. I’m really really sorry for that.This is something we’ve decided by ourselves but I really didn’t sort my feelings yet.I love all the fans that are supporting our band Signal. I’m really proud of that and that will never change. And because of that this result makes my heart hurt.The remaining time is limited but during that time we will give our very best. I want to look back and be proud of being able to have an effect on your feelings until the very end.There’s a lot more I want to say but I didn’t sort my words yet, sorry.

SHIONThis should have been a weekday like every day but due to our announcement we made you upset. I’m really sorry.On September 14th Signal will disband.We’ve betrayed you so often and even in the end… . I’m really sorry.We’ve discussed this so many times and it’s really hard that we came to the result that “disbanding” is the answer.But we do love Signal.There are a lot of our fans who said that their wounds won’t heal after we’ve announced Raychel’s departure. My heart hurts.
In 3 months Signal will end.As of that moment Signal will be only a memory and CDs for us and everyone else.But until the remaining live span ends we want to create as much memories and leave as much traces as we can. Together with everyone. Because the band “Signal” caused many wounds in all of you.
The final stage is Meguru Live Station. It’s the memorable live house we’ve held our very first live as Signal two years ago. As Singal’s SHION, as bassist, I will make noise and let you hear my voice and blow with my fist in the air with all of our fans at the live until the very end. I want to think back to this time.
I don’t like those serious words but in the remaining time we want to show our loyalty to all of you.
Sorry for not being able to write a proper entry.

RuaI’m sorry for that really sudden announcement.
It’s really hard, also for us, but we can’t change it.Signal was my reason to live. An important place.It was my life.It’s so hard that it won’t be there anymore. And I’m scared.
But it’s the result we came to all together after thinking about it.All we can do is to look ahead and move forward.Until the very last day.

YuriI’m really sorry for such a sudden announcement that makes us betray our fans.The shape breaks and the thing that should live will surely die.Sooner or later the end comes.But… We will disband and that’s really hard. Even if it’s something we’ve decided by ourselves. To not fall… to not break… We have to act happy but as soon as I’m not with the members I start to think of many things.For me there’s no band that can replace Signal.And so it’s really hard. To be honest, I still can’t believe it. I'm selfish.Andit must be hard for you, too. It’s irresponsible.
But I want you to believe just that: Even though we disband Signal won’t die at the core. I will keep the love you all gave us and the time and memories in my heart and it will last for a lifetime.
Which way I’ll ever go after the disbanding, I promise you to live with my heartbeat made out of the experiences I’ve gained while playing for Signal. And I hope that you will keep us in our hearts as well.
There are only a few lives left but I hope for more power than we had until now, so please stay with us until the very and.Let’s create a living “evidence”! Meguru Live Station on September 14th. It’s the first stage on that we were standing as Signal. Close the curtain in this memorable live house together with us!
