Introduction

Born in the 80s, the band Seikima-II (pronounced "seikimatsu" and meaning "end of century") is absolutly legendary in Japan!

Organized in a "Conquest Plan of the Earth of 40 years", Seikima-II adopted entertainment as a means of spreading their doctrine and started in 1985. Thereafter, they propagated the Chapters of Doctrine (known to humans as singles), Scripture of Doctrine (or albums), and Visual Records of Doctrine (videos if you like). They keep satisfactorily demonstrating their artistry and increasing their disciples (otherwise known as fans) in their Worship Rituals (rock concerts, you know) appealing to all ages and genders. Seikima-II also had AKUMA Worship Rituals in Sevillia, London, New York City, and Hong Kong.

Their first mission on Earth ended in 1999 and the band separated. In 2005, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the band, Seikima-II get together again for 6 months, 6 new singles, a 15 Rituals tour and 5 albums.

To celebrate the 10^th anniversary of the end of their first mission, Seikima-II released a new album at fall 2009, Akuma Nativity~Songs of the Sword.

In 2010, for their 25^th anniversary, Seikima-II rise again. They will be conducting their dark AKUMA Worship Rituals in several countries. And they will be at the J.E. Live House!
