Pop Japan

Get ready to be blown away by this rock icon: GACKT.

GACKT, or Gackt Camui, is a Japanese musician, actor, and writer who has been around in the performance industry since 1993. He was once a frontman for the band, Malice Mizer, but he has been performing solo since 1999. The head-banging, warmonging track, Returner, solidified his place at the top of the Oricon Weekly Charts. Aside from singing, he has also acted and wrote a few films and stage plays. His songs have also been featured in numerous video games, television series, and anime films like Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam.

No wonder, from the first few seconds of hearing his songs, you'd already feel legendary.
