born is a young visual kei band already displaying an expert sound. Despite their dark, intense image, the band often conveys positive and encouraging melodies. Incorporating electronica and pop elements as well as especially active bass lines, their songs are marked by balladic moments of poignant singing and glinting guitars almost as much as they are by headbanging riffs, death vocals and deranged screams.

born - Neues Label, neue Releases (<-JaME-link)
Die eher düstere und harte VK-Band
born ist nun beim Label
Indie-PSC unter Vertrag.
Die Bandmitglieder kündigten aber bereits in ihren Blogs an, dass der Labelwechsel keine größeren Auswirkungen auf die Musik der Gruppe haben wird.
Das erste Großvorhaben unter Indie-PSC steht auch schon an: born wollen im Herbst jeden Monat ein Mini-Album veröffentlichen. Weitere Informationen zu diesen drei Release-Terminen für August, September und Oktober werden voraussichtlich ab 9. Juni verfügbar sein.
Das neue Image der Band sowie ein Videokommentar können auf der neuen Homepage bewundert werden.
