Formed in 2001, Amaterase (天照) is comprised of 2 members, Daishi (guitar and programming) and Akira (vocals), along with a whole host of live support members. "Amaterase" is the name of the Japanese Sun Goddess, the beginning of everything. Contrary to this, Amaterase say that although this is her name, they prefer the image that their kanji project. The kanji used for Amaterase consist of "Ten", meaning heaven, and "Terasu", meaning light. Daishi says that they want to be seen as "Ten kara terasu" the "Light from Heaven".
