Artist BiographyAvailable in:
"Area 11" is an alternative rock band from Nottingham, England. The band currently, (June 2016) consists of four members; Thomas "Sparkles*" Clarke, Alex Parvis, Jonathan Kogan and Leo Taylor.
They formed on 8 October 2010 in Nottingham during what was described by band frontman Sparkles* as a "disastrous jam session". Founding members Sparkles*, Luke Owens, and Alex then discovered their shared love of anime whilst watching Code Geass episode 22 "Blood Stained Euphy", from which they wrote their first song, Euphemia. The name "Area 11" is a reference to the anime Code Geass, as Japan is referred to as Area 11 in the series, with its citizens referred to as Elevens, a name which has come to collectively describe Area 11 fans.
The band have described their sound as of modern rock. Their songs are based around Western rock and pop traditions, Their music commonly blends heavy metal guitar riffs with a wide range of synthesizers and electronic effects. Formerly they dubbed their style of music as "Gaijin-Rock", a tongue-in-cheek phrase that translates from Japanese to English as "foreigner-rock" due to the influences from East Asian culture in their earlier records.
