Japanese Alt-Rock Visual Kei band Z CLEAR presents their first full album “Shidaishigou”, a relentless blast of rock that hits hard. This work was released in both digital and physical formats on May 6, 2026.

All or nothing, that’s “Shidaishigou” for Z CLEAR. The band formed in 2019 in Hiroshima. After relocating to Tokyo in 2024, Z CLEAR signed with PARAGUAS inc. in 2025. Under the close mentorship of fellow band XANVALA, this album is their first widely distributed release under the label.

“Shidaishigou” is an expression that translates to “supremely great, supremely strong”. Z CLEAR embodies the idea of creating empowering music through what they call “Buchi ROCK” (Super Rock).

The band comments on the album: “We are Z CLEAR, a Visual Kei band from Hiroshima, now based in Tokyo. Our ‘Buchi ROCK’  concept is Rock ‘n’ Roll infused with the personalities and life philosophies of all four members. We have just released our first album, ‘Shidaishigou.’ This album fully showcases the power and storyline of Z CLEAR. Please listen from start to finish and let our ‘Buchi ROCK’ take over.”

Z CLEAR plays by no one’s rules, carving their own path in the Visual Kei scene with an unyielding spirit.
