Contemporary avant-rock duo KIRINJI (キリンジ) formed in October 1996, in Tokyo, Japan when brothers Yasuyuki and Takaki Horigome (both Guitar/Vox, respectively) started writing songs together. It did not take much time for their well-kneaded sweet melodies to capture much of attention and respect from surrounding artists and audience. The lyrics so original, one of a kind harmony that only these brothers can create, and their well refined production immediately summed up all together and created the one and only 'KIRINJI world'. They soon successfully established themselves in the limelight of the J-pop scene, as their self-titled debut album KIRINJI released indie in 1997.
