G.L.A.M.S is the solo project of vocalist Mikaru (mainly known as the vocalist of ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) bands Dio ~Distraught Overlord~ and BLACK LINE).

This interview was done before the new album from G.L.A.M.S, “TWILIGHT AFTER THE RAIN” officially came out. Mikaru offered to answer a total of five questions about the new album, on only one condition: I would have to ask completely blind. There was no information given other than the name of the album,
Ever since G.L.A.M.S formed under the title of “Mikaru’s solo project” he has spoken about his works that don’t directly have to do with music. The love for art and jewelry has always been there, but it has always been in the shadow of his music when he visited The Netherlands.

Maybe you have heard of G.L.A.M.S already, but in case you haven’t: G.L.A.M.S is the new project of the former vocalist of Dio ~Distraught Overlord~, Mikaru.
But aside from music, G.L.A.M.S is also very much about art, fashion, photography, film… Everything creative, really. There’s too much to name.
During their “GLAMNIGHT” tour G.L.A.M.S stopped at De Broodfabriek in Rijswijk on July 11 to play their show for the fans who were visiting the “Fan Base Project” convention.

Mikaru (ex. Dio ~Distraught Overlord~/BLACK LINE) started his solo project G.L.A.M.S in the winter of 2013 with the intention to add a glamour touch (“glam”) and “haute couture” to his work.
