月蝕 (Gesshoku) was Kyo's first band. They formed in August 1993 and disbanded on April 11, 1994, after an activity period of only nine months. The band name means "Lunar Eclipse" and was often used together with the tagline "schwarz weiß" (German for "black white").
Member History
The member history of Gesshoku isn't entirely clear. Drummer Shū left the band in late 1993 and they used a support drummer until their disbandment. It's possible that Shū was the support drummer. This is the band's most well-known line-up, it can be found on one demo tape, the live VHS and the omnibus CD:
- Vocals – 殀磨 (Yoma)
- This name can also be found written as 妖磨 (Yoma) and 殆磨 (Hotoma). Both are wrong.
- Guitar – LAYLLA
- Bass – 忒己 (TOKUKO)
- The bassist's name is written as "TOKUKO" in various places.
- Drums – 愁 (Shū)
These members were provided by Seine (ex-Viṣṇu / Masquerade):
- Guitar – Shuji
- Bass – 麗 (Rei)
