Redrum (band)
Redrum (often stylized as REDЯUM) is a Japanese indie rock band who formed in 1996 with the decisive goal of becoming a band similar to Portishead for Japan.〔(Redrum's Mission Statement )〕 The members of the band consist of Yumi (vocals), Tsuyoshi (guitar) and Kazi (drums). The role of bassist officially changed two times and was helmed primarily by Soto who joined the band early on and stayed until his departure in December 2004. Their catalogue of works consists of only a few proper albums, several mini albums and maxi singles. Some of their releases were available exclusively through mail order or at their shows and have since become out of print.
In April 2006 the band announced that they would be going on an indefinite hiatus after they finished their 10th anniversary tour which ended in June. Kazi stressed that this was not a break-up and that all band members vowed to return in the future. In March 2007 the band followed through with their word and announced their comeback live which is to take place on April 22, 2007. With this announcement came the news that long-standing bassist Soto would rejoin the band after having left in late 2004. They released a "best of" album on November 19, 2008 entitled ''Cinematic Sound Foundation'' and followed up with an announcement of the band's disbandment. Yumi decided to retire from music and after a discussion with the band it was decided that Redrum could no longer exist without her or with a replacement singer. Kazi has stated that he, Tsuyoshi and Soto would eventually perform together in some capacity. The band embarked on their last tour entitled "Tomorrow Never Comes" and their final live took place on April 25, 2009 at Shinjuku Loft.
==Name and themes==
The band's name comes most notably from Stephen King's ''The Shining'' and is the reverse of the word 'murder'. Redrum songs have the occasional line played in reverse which could take homage to their namesake but more than likely pay respect to the red room sequences in ''Twin Peaks'', David Lynch's television series involving strange happenings related to a small town murder. The band's, and specifically Kazi's, appreciation of the works of both David Lynch and David Cronenberg are referenced thematically through many songs.
