Karasu

Karasu is an independent band with a Metalcore music style, focusing on power and emotional intensity. Led by the vocalist Taiyo (Golden Crow), the band members ("the flock") use music to showcase resilience and strength. The crow symbolizes the ability to survive even in harsh environments, consuming vibrant colors and ultimately refining them into a deep yet radiant black.

The visual identity is centered around the crow, representing the band’s spirit and style. The color scheme consists of black, white, and yellow: black symbolizes chaos and the crow’s essence, white represents hope and light, while yellow embodies the sun and the golden crow, signifying burning passion and guidance. The logo design merges the Chinese character 「鴉」 and the Japanese 「カラス」, using bold strokes and irregular shapes to enhance brand uniqueness.

The target audience includes independent music fans, music festival attendees, and those who appreciate unconventional fashion styles. The merchandise emphasizes practicality, featuring umbrellas, canvas bags, water bottles, stickers, IC cards, masks, hats, and metal keychains, with future plans for jackets, camping chairs, towels, picnic mats, and phone cases.

No one can choose the circumstances of their birth—everyone must face challenges. That is why we must fight for ourselves, like the intelligent, adaptable, and resilient crow, overcoming limits and soaring high. Karasu is more than just a band logo; it is a symbol of spirit—expressing our inner voice through music, carrying the shadows, and boldly chasing the light.
