SuG

MembSug (typeset as SuG captioned with Heavy Positive Rock) is an independent Japanese rock band, formed in 2006. They are also part of thevisual kei movement of Japan. The band has released one EP and several singles, and as of 2008, the band is signed to "Indie PSC", a subdivision of PS Companye

History

Sug was formed in October 2006 by Takeru, Masato and Yuji (Who had all been members of another band called Travel) and Shouta. The drummer Mitsuru then joined in November of the same year.[2]

Shouta left the band in February and was replaced by Chiyu on bass. Their first release was "7th Breeze" on the compilation album Cannonball Vol. 03. The band signed to the visual-kei label PS Company and in August released their first single, "Scheat".[3]

Sug have recently released an EP entitled Love Scream Party. To promote their music outside of Japan, Sug performed at "J-Rock Invasion" in Germany alongside Kagrra, Kra, Alice Nine and Screw who are also signed to CLJ Records, a German label.[4]

Mitsuru left Sug after their live on 9 May 2009. It is supposed that Mitsuru left citing creative differences to the remaining band members.

They now have included their support drummer Shinpei as a full time member

Following the announcement of the new single Gr8 Story SuG has announced their move into Major Label PS Company during the live event called 'SuGフェス [Festival] 2009 Alternative POP Show ~ Vol.6' on November 30th 2009.[5] Gr8 Story will be released through Pony Canyon.And the song will also used as the ending song for the popular Anime "家庭教師ヒットマンREBORN!/ KateiKyoushi Hitman REBORN" aired on TV Tokyo.[6] According to the band, the song is "rather punkish", yet with a catchy tune and an "easy-listening appeal".[7]

[edit]
Name

The name "Sug" is derived from the transliteration of the English word "thug", written in Japanese as Sagu (サグ?). The name is then simplified to the slightly more romantic "Sug".[8]Unfortunately Sug means "suck" in Swedish and in Norwegian.
