Rouge au noir formed in early 2002 and disbanded late 2003 formed by vocalist Jill formerly of DRAGON and guitarist, Swan who had been looking to form a visual kei band. They started as a 5 piece band but quickly lost guitarist Seiya due to musical differences. They had a french inspired gothic theme with a neo-classical metal inspired sound. Despite their impressive and unique sound, the band didn't last very long and only managed to release a single mini-album before disbanding.
