SOLITUDE was formed in 1996. In 1998, they picked up "SOLITUDE" as the name of the band, and they played live for the first time in March 1999. In September, Shingo Ida (ex-BARTOLOMMEO) joined the band, and his distinctive style of melodic guitars has brought a new blood into the band. In November, they recorded two songs, "Virtual Image" and "Eagle Fly". This recording was used for promotion as "SOLITUDE Demo '99".
Their debut album "Virtual Image" was finally released on 5th of September, 2001 from SPIRITUAL BEAST. The album got rave reviews from the underground fanzines and webzines, not just in Japan but in the US and throughout Europe, and requests for interviews flooded in. The reaction was especially overwhelming in Germany, owing to the sampler CD called "Metal Crusade" from "Heavy oder was!?" magazine, which featured the title track "Virtual Image".
In 2004, they started preparing for a new album, and first recorded "Rainbow Theme" - "Frozen Rainbow" for a SAXON tribute album "Eagleution - A Tribute to Saxon", put together by Remedy Records in Germany. The recording continued while the band played selected gigs like "Duryu Rock Festival" in Korea, or short tour in Japan, but their uncompromising attitude and personal issues (the death of Akira's family) delayed the whole process more than they had expected.
The recording, carried out at various points, was finally over and while they were waiting the mixing to be done, at the end of 2008, Syouda decided to leave the band. In later 2009, very famous drummer's Takamasa "Mad" Ohuchi (ex-ANTHEM) joining SOLITUDE as a permanent member.
In December 2009, after 8 years from the debut album, the long-awaited new album "Brave the Storm" finally hit the stores. The mastering duty was handled by Alan Douches at West West Side Music (THE AGONIST, MASTODON etc).
In April 2014, the band finally started recording a new album. Looking for the kind of sound production they grew up listening, they went into a closed movie theater in Gotenba, Shizuoka, where they brought in the recording equipments, just like Deep Purple did in a hotel, Rainbow did in an old castle etc in the 70's. With the great ambience and the environment to allow you to play as loud as you want, the place was later modified into a proper recording studio called "Tapestry Recording Studio". The band appeared at the "Japanese Assault Fest 14" two years in a row (SATAN, HEAVY TIGER, MIDNIGHT MALICE, etc) later that year.
The album was mixed and mastered at Pama Studios in Sweden, by Magnus "Mankan" Sedenberg and Magnus "Maxe" Axelsson respectively, who had worked with such bands as BULLET and CRUCIFIED BARBARA. The stunning artwork was painted by the Italian artist Velio Josto, who had done covers for WARLORD, MEDIEVAL STEEL, OSTROGOTH among others. This album "Reach for the Sky" was released from SPIRITUAL BEAST in June 2015. And the band appeared at the "Japanese Assault Fest 15" (ENFORCER, SUICIDAL ANGELS, DIEMONDS, etc.) , and the band performed Japan tour of more than 20 place until early 2016.
There is no schedule or ticket right now.
