Kiryu (己龍) is a visual kei band. Formed in September 2007, they are signed on to B.P Records. Kiryu is strongly influenced by traditional Japanese culture. The band also often appears around breath-taking settings reminiscent of ancient Japan. Kiryu's music can be calming and relaxing and matches very well with the idea of old Japan in a modern context. However, some of the their music has definite heavy metal tones.
