The long-standing lineup of vocalist Teru, guitarists Takuro and Hisashi, and bassist Jiro plays pop-oriented rock and is known for singles including “However,” “Yuuwaku” and “Winter, again,” as well as the albums pure soul and HEAVY GAUGE. GLAY staged GLAY EXPO ’99 SURVIVAL in the Makuhari Messe parking area in 1999, making the large outdoor EXPO concert a recurring part of its live history.
