Higeki no Shuumaku: A Madeth Gray'll fansite

Hisui is the stunning vocalist who started Madeth Gray'll. After many lineup changes in the band, Hisui was the only remaining original member. He wrote all the lyrics and some of the music of Madeth Gray'll. Hisui's songs tend to be more melodical and not quite as hard as Yukina's songs. They happen to be some of my favorites. Especially missantroop, opera za no higeki, and Lucifer.

Some more Hisui facts: He was born in Kobe, is around 173 cm, looks up to B'Z, his favorite song of Madeth's is Hakuchuumu no sangeki (because of the lyrics). It's been said his weight is anywhere from 55 to 63 kg.....let's just say he is quite slim.

Hisui does not smoke atl all, unlike most jrockers these days. Vox describes Hisui's voice as being "mournful" and I must really agree. It really adds to the power of his dark lyrics. He has a unique voice that is still very distinct compared to other vocals heard in the visual scene (both past and present).

The mystery of KEI....
Madeth has had so many lineup changes...however, the singer that created Madeth Gray'll named "kei" is indeed Hisui. They are one and the same. Kei simply changed his name to Hisui. Prior to being in Madeth Hisui was in the bands De=prive and De=Luge as a vocalist. He was also a guitarist in the band Vierge.

Where is he now?

On March 10, 2001 he was involved with the project band "gyarandou" with former Madeth members Hisui and Reika, as well as many other indies jrockers. They released a single demo tape. Hisui went on to create Jelly Berry with former band mate Ukyou. They released a cd single called Mother Crisis, but disbanded not long after. He then joined Airi and Crack Brain's Hizaki to form the band Schwardix Marvally. Schwardix was similar to Madeth with very heavy guitars and strong melodies. Unfortunately, they annouced that they would disband and had their last live on April 17, 2004.

Hisui would not join any band after this and instead just helped out in various session bands as support guitar or vocals. His last known support work was for Kisaki & Kansai Kizoku. Though unconfirmed, it seems he has retired from the music scene. This is a great shame, as he was a lovely singer and a great song writer. I really hope he returns to music someday.
