Queen B, also known as Ziyoou-vachi, is a Japanese rock band recognized for its “fashion punk” style and dynamic performances, engaging audiences with unique musical and visual artistry. After self-releasing their debut extended play on CD-R through their own Ziyoou Record label in 2009 and 2010, the Japanese rock band Queen B (Ziyoou-vachi) signed a major label contract with Sony Music Associated Records in 2011. This pivotal agreement integrated Ziyoou Record as a sub-label, enabling professional manufacturing and distribution of their music. Queen B swiftly released their first professionally manufactured album, Witch Hunt, in 2011, followed by Peacock in the same year and Snake Princess in 2012, quickly establishing their distinctive sound in the music scene.
This was followed by the critically acclaimed album 12D, released in 2023, which further cemented their reputation for combining bright colors, creative themes, and a diverse discography. Looking ahead, Queen B has announced the upcoming release of their album Aku in 2025. The band continues to maintain a high level of activity, consistently producing new material and announcing tours that promise their unique and intense live performances. Their music frequently explores themes of self-acceptance and navigating personal struggles, as exemplified by the song ‘Half,’ reinforcing their connection with a dedicated global fanbase.
