Nine Days Wonder Biography
There are three bands named Nine Days Wonder.
Nine Days Wonder is a Japanese rock band. Their current line-up is Akira Kawasaki on drums, Atsushi Kiyota on keyboards, and Kensuke Saito on guitar, bass, and vocals. All three members produce programmed recordings for their sets.
Formed at the end of 1997, it only took a year before the band's first output was released. Self-released in Japan, the "Aluminum" 7' was distributed by Dim Mak in the USA, six months after the band had started to play shows. April 1998 saw the release of a split 7" with Bluebeard from Japan.
Two Years later the bands first full length album "The Scenery Is In Disguise There" was released on Dim Mak. Shortly after the release the band went on a nationwide tour together with Envy from Japan, This Machine Kills and The Exploder, both from the USA.
The end of 2000 saw the departure of their bassist which marked Nine Days Wonders first line up change so far. First of all the band added a second guitar player, and luckily they found a new bass player shortly after that.
At the end of April 2001 a split EP with No Knife from the USA was released by Nova Recordings (Europe), Dim Mak (USA) and Catune (Japan).
The release was followed by another nationwide tour with No Knife.
After this tour the band added a keyboard player to its steady line up and played successful shows with bands like Burning Airlines, Engine Down, The Locust, 90 Day Men, Tristeza, The Album Leaf, Milemarker and Elliott, among others. Then No Knife returned to do another Japanese tour accompanied by Nine Days Wonder in January 2003.
After the second tour with No Knife the bass player left the band again, but ex-Atomic Fireball member Ryuji completed the band again in march 2003.
2004 was another busy year for Nine Days Wonder. Their second full length entitled "With Euphoria" saw the light of day in January, followed by the bands first European tour in April / May, and there are plans for an US tour at the end of the year as well.
