Mucc (Japanese: ムック, Hepburn: Mukku, stylized as MUCC) is a Japanese visual kei rock band, formed in Ibaraki Prefecture in 1997. When original bassist Hiro left in 1999, the classic line up of Tatsurou on vocals, Miya on guitar, Yukke on bass, and Satoichi on drums was solidified. After 24 years, Satoichi retired from the music business in October 2021, leaving Mucc a trio. As of 2022, the band has released 16 studio albums, three live albums, four EPs, 42 singles and 29 home videos, some of which were also released in Europe.
History
Early years and releases (1997–2005)
Mucc was formed on May 4, 1997[2] by guitarist Miya, vocalist Tatsurou (then called "Tattoo"), drummer Satochi and bassist Hiro. They were named after a character from the children's TV show Hirake! Ponkikki.[3][4] The band is also known by the nickname "69" since the numbers six and nine can be pronounced "mu" and "ku", respectively, in Japanese. They have played with this number throughout their career, such as dubbing June 9 "Mucc Day", and providing live broadcasts that last 690 minutes.[5][6] Fans of the band are known as "Muccer" (夢烏, Mukkā).[7]
Originally playing covers of bands such as The Blue Hearts and Glay, Mucc handed out their first demo tape, No!?, in December 1997. On March 3, 1998, they handed out copies of their second demo tape, Aika, and on December 1, they gave out a limited 100 copies of their third, Tsubasa wo Kudasai. In 1999, Hiro left and was replaced on bass by Miya's childhood friend Yukke on February 22. In July, Mucc had their first tour, where they handed out demo tapes of Aka at every venue. On December 25, they had their first official release, the EP Antique. On June 8, 2000, Tattoo changed his stage name to his current name of Tatsurou. They released their first album, Tsūzetsu, on January 7, 2001. It was followed by the EP Aishū on December 25. In 2002, the band signed to Danger Crue, establishing their own sublabel Shu (朱), and released their second album, Hōmura Uta. That year they held a concert titled En (えん), which featured acts from different genres. They have continued to hold En events sporadically since.[8]
Mucc signed to Universal in 2003, and released their major label debut album Zekū on September 3. It was followed by the release of their first live DVD, Nihon Rettou Konton Heisei Kokoro no Naka, on December 10. Kuchiki no Tō, their fourth studio album, was released on September 1, 2004.
International activities (2005–2011)
Mucc debuted in Europe in August 2005, including a performance at Wacken Open Air.[9] They released the album Hōyoku on November 23. Mucc released two albums in 2006, 6 and Gokusai, and performed in the United States at the Otakon anime convention.[10] They ended a world tour on June 6 with their first concert at the Nippon Budokan.[11] 2007 marked Mucc's 10th anniversary. They released two compilation albums, Best of Mucc and Worst of Mucc; the latter includes rare songs from their indie years.[12] In addition to opening for Guns N' Roses on the Japanese leg of their 2007 World Tour, Mucc gave performances in Shanghai, in Finland at Provinssirock, and in the US at JRock Revolution Festival.[13][14][15] They also performed at the Abstinence's Door #001 event hosted by D'erlanger, and their song "Chain Ring" was used as the ending theme to the Zombie-Loan anime adaptation.[16][17] They held a special 10th anniversary concert at the Ibaraki Prefectural Cultural Center in November.[18]
Throughout 2008, Mucc participated in the Taste of Chaos 2008 tour,[19] which initially stopped at forty cities across the United States and Canada from February to May, along with fellow Japanese bands D'espairsRay and the Underneath. In March, they released the album Shion. After returning to Japan, Mucc performed at the hide memorial summit at Ajinomoto Stadium alongside groups such as X Japan and Luna Sea, and began their own nationwide Rainy Rave tour before performing at the Sweden Rock Festival in June.[20] The Taste of Chaos tour went to Europe in October, and then to Japan in November, where Mucc was the headliner.[21] Mucc then performed at The Fillmore New York at Irving Plaza on December 7, 2008 and the House of Blues in Los Angeles on December 10.[22]
Following the March 2009 release of their ninth studio album Kyūtai, Mucc held a sold-out 16-date nationwide tour from May to June.[23] After performing in Sweden at Metaltown Festival in June,[24] their Solid Sphere Tour began with a live in Russia on October 3,[25] before featuring their first shows in Latin America (Chile and Mexico).[26] The band completed the tour on November 16 in Japan at the JCB Hall.[27] Mucc started 2010 with a concert on February 14 at the NHK Hall, where they announced they would release a new album that fall.[28] Returning to being an indie band on Danger Crue Records, Mucc released Karma on October 6. "Yakusoku" was used as the opening theme to Night Raid 1931.
On May 21, 2011, at their Mucc History Gigs 97~11 Nippon Budokan show, Mucc announced they would be signing to major label Sony Music Associated Records.[29] Their single "Akatsuki" was first sold exclusively at that concert and the following day's, before later being available as a digital download with all proceeds donated to aid the victims of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.[30] Mucc's next single, "Nirvana", was released on March 7, 2012 and used as the opening theme song for the Inu x Boku SS anime.[31]
Shangri-La and 15th Anniversary (2012–2013)
An album titled Aishū no Antique, composed of remastered songs mainly from their two EPs Antique and Aishū, was released at their 15th anniversary live, Mucc vs ムック vs Mucc, at Makuhari Messe on June 9, 2012. At the concert they announced a consecutive 3 month DVD release documenting the entire 15th anniversary live. They also announced the release of their eleventh studio album Shangri-La for November 30, 2012. The third single for the album, "Mother", was released on October 31 and was one of the ending themes for Naruto Shippuden, their fourth anime tie in. The album's song "Kyōran Kyoshō -21st Century Baby-" was the theme song for the horror movie Fuan no Tane.
In 2013, Mucc began looking for two new members who would participate in recording, photo shoots and interviews. Applicants had to send in five stickers included with CDs, DVDs and other goods, released in commemoration of the band's 15th anniversary along with an application; it was noted that they did not need to know how to play an instrument.[32] The winners were selected by Mucc's four primary members themselves and given stage names, after interviews and reviewing resumes on a live broadcast on Niconico on July 26. Hancho, a Hungarian female study abroad student from the band's native Ibaraki, and Dean, a male office worker from Chiba Prefecture officially joined the band on August 17.[33][34] However, on September 4, roughly two weeks later, it was announced that both had left the group. Dean left after his parents found out he had joined a rock band by seeing him on TV, and Hancho stated she had achieved her dream of joining Mucc and could now leave to become a fan once more.[35][36][37]
The October 2013 single "World's End" was the opening theme song of Meganebu!.[38] On December 1, Mucc gave a free performance in Amerikamura's Triangle Park to an estimated 3,000 fans.[39] They released their twelfth studio album, The End of the World, in June 2014. Mucc's 2016 single "Classic" was used as the opening theme song of 'The Seven Deadly Sins: Signs of Holy War.[40]
20th Anniversary and Satochi's departure (2017–present)
After the release of their thirteenth studio album Myakuhaku on January 25, 2017, Mucc gave a special free live performance on February 4 to anyone who bought the special edition of the album. The special free live performance was the start of their 20th anniversary tour. On March 29, Mucc released their fifth best album, Best of Mucc II, followed by their sixth Coupling Best II. On May 4, they released the single "Ieji" along with performing it live at Ibarakiken Bunkacenter Large Hall.[41] They also released three self-cover albums, beginning with Shin Tsūzetsu and Shin Hōmura Uta on August 9. The third was Koroshi no Shirabe II: This is Not Greatest Hits on September 13, the title of which was taken from Buck-Tick's similar Koroshi no Shirabe: This Is Not Greatest Hits. They covered "Crazy4You" by D'erlanger for the D'erlanger Tribute Album ~Stairway to Heaven~ which was released on the same day.[42] On December 27, they hosted a special 20th anniversary festival at the Nippon Budokan where acts that contributed to the Mucc tribute album En (縁), such as Sid, lynch., The Back Horn and sukekiyo, also performed.[43] With the end of 2017, Mucc returned to being an independent band on Danger Crue Records yet again.
For the February 2019 concept album Kowareta Piano to Living Dead, Mucc recruited keyboardist Tooru Yoshida as a limited-time member.[44] The album was based on 140 of the band's early demos.[45] Throughout the second half of the year, they released four singles limited to 6,940 copies total. Each one was written by a different band member and released at a concert held on the 40th birthday of its songwriter.[46] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Mucc had to cancel their one-man live at Pia MM Arena and the April 2020 European dates of their Kowareta Piano to Living Dead tour. They released the made-to-order single "Shōfu 2020", which contains four different recordings of their first single "Shōfu" from various points in their career, on June 9 to celebrate its 20th anniversary.[47]
On December 2, 2020 they announced that Satochi, who had been their drummer for 23 years, would be leaving the band in spring 2021 and cease activities as a professional musician.[48] His last tour with the band, Mucc Tour 202X Aku - The Brightness World, began in February 2021, but its final four shows were rescheduled to August after Japan declared a state of emergency as a result of the pandemic and Satochi tested positive for COVID-19.[49] The final two concerts were postponed again due to the pandemic and took place on October 2 and 3 at The Hirosawa City Hall in the band's home prefecture of Ibaraki.[50]
A day after Satochi's departure, Mucc released new artist pictures showing them as a trio. The double A-side single "Goner/World" was released in November 2021.[51] 2022 marks the 25th anniversary of Mucc's formation. They began celebrating with an acoustic live on May 4.[52] The band released their sixteenth studio album, Shin Sekai, on June 9.[8] Its tour, which has the subtitle Beginning of the 25th Anniversary, took place from June 11 to August 28.[7] For the anniversary installment En event, En 8 on September 6, Mucc decided to choose The Back Horn and Cock Roach as the participates because they also have ties to Ibaraki.[8] Timeless, their 25th anniversary tour, will take place from October 9 to December 14. They will play a setlist centered on songs from their Zekū (2003) and Kuchiki no Tō (2004) albums.[53] On December 21, Mucc will release the mini-album Shin Sekai Bekkan, which is composed of outtakes from Shin Sekai and songs written during its tour.[54]
