IORI revealed today that he will be leaving spiv states as of September 22nd, due to long-term back problems which have culminated in a herniated disc. (This was also the reason why he was missing at a recent live.) The band released this official statement:

An important announcement to everyone from spiv states.

As of September 22nd, spiv states’ guitarist IORI has decided to leave the band due to health issues.

For a while now, he has been inflicted by pain caused by a hernia in his lower back.

For our oneman live at Shimokitazawa ERA he was commuting back and forth to the hospital and therefore was unable to perform.

However, shortly afterwards, his disease grew worse and it’s very possible that it could have a serious effect on his band activities in the future, and more than anything on his health as a whole.

The members and staff had countless meetings and although it is unfortunate, this is the decision that we have arrived at.

To all the fans and everyone connected with the band, we are truly sorry for the trouble that this has caused.

We will be happy if you will continue to support both JUN and IORI in their futures.

Please continue to cheer us on.

We will carry on with the scheduled lives and events as planned.

We hope that everyone will give us their understanding and support.

On September 18th, Vidoll had been holding their last live performance “VIDOLL LIVE Reset” at Shinkiba STUDIO COAST before the band will pause its activities, which is necessary for vocalist Jui to recover completely.

After the performance, Jui commented in his blog: “Everyone’s gentle thoughts have reached me. Thank you very much. Actually, during the rehearsal, my state wasn’t very good during the rehearsal. Therefore I was worried more from the beginning than being able to look forward to it. However, hearing all of your supportive voices, I wanted to give my best and was eventually able to sing the greatest songs.” He revealed the state before the live

Moreover, at the very end of the live, there were only those words with strong conviction: “We will definitely return, so wait for us!”
Let’s hope for them to return every bit as early as possible!
