Deluhi (written as DELUHI) was a Japanese visual kei metal ensemble established in 2008 by guitarist Leda, who brought in vocalist Juri during the renaming of their former band, Grave Seed. Prior to this, Leda played bass under the alias Yu-To in the power metal group Galneryus.
History
In April 2009, Deluhi made an appearance on the American television program Bento Beatbox broadcasted by the Anime Network. The following month, they contributed to the compilation album J-Visual[ism] 2, issued by the European label CLJ Records. Towards the end of 2009, Deluhi embarked on a nationwide tour across Japan alongside Matenrou Opera.
The band announced a pause in activities beginning 1 December 2010 after performing at Shibuya O-East. Subsequently, on 1 April 2011, Deluhi revealed plans to disband after completing a final tour scheduled for July that year.
After disbanding, Leda initiated a solo project named Undivide, collaborating with drummer Sujk and vocalist Kihiro (LOKA/ex-Supe); this project concluded in March 2013. Meanwhile, Aggy formed Garson as lead singer with members from GYZE in April 2012; however, this group dissolved by October without releasing any material.
From 2013 onward, Leda has contributed as a rotating studio musician within the backing Kami Band for Babymetal. In January 2015, he founded Far East Dizain alongside vocalist Keita, bassist Ryu, and drummer Sujk.
