I found out recently that the members of L'Arc~en~Ciel get extremely pissed when people say they are/ever were Visual Kei. But then if this isn't Visual what is?
They were even in a Visual Style Magazine see:
So if they weren't Visual Kei then what exactly were they???
Visual Kei: Term used to describe certain rock bands in Japan that dress in elaborate (often goth/punk-influenced) outfits while performing. Their look is as important (sometimes moreso) as their sound and cross-dressing, lots of make-up and crazy hair styles are not uncommon.

They seem to fit the code and yet they insist they were never Visual Kei. So then, what were they???
