Different Styles in music bands “//Without music life would be a mistake//”-Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche. Visual kei is a movement in Japan which a lot of music bands follow which consists on taking care of the members of the band as well as making good music. There are a lot of subgenus. Some bands plays heavy metal and other bands plays cheerful music, but the most important fact is the physical appearance.

There are many different characteristics between: “//the GazettE"// and “//Alice Nine//”. //The GazettE’s// singer writes lyrics with darker themes, talking about daily life, sadistic or sad situations and tragic love stories. Most of their songs are heavy rock. On the other hand, //Alice Nine’s// vocalist writes songs with cheerful lyrics, he usually describes the pretty side about life, fantasy worlds including love songs. Their music is softer. Even though their music is so different, both of them have really nice and popular songs.

Another different point is that the style of make up of //the GazettE// is excessive. They usually use black color in their lips and underline their eyes, exaggerating their look. //Alice Nine// uses lighter make up, for example they use sky blue or sometimes they don't use make up. Both bands take care of their appearance because it is important to look good. Some bands may look androgynus.

//The GazettE’s// clothes are very different from the ones that //Alice Nine// uses. They wear darker clothes such as jackets and boots. They also use a lot of accessories like earrings, rings and necklaces. They don't use many colors according with their music style. In contrast, //Alice Nine// uses clothes with a lot of colors adding to their outfits funny glasses or hats. //Alice Nine// as the same way as //the GazettE// use visual kei style.

I really do like both bands. They have a lot of differences as well** as ** they have a lot of similarities. I learned that that these bands had their own style and this is good otherwise will be boring that all bands were the same way. Visual kei bands are interesting and that is why I like them.
