It doesn't matter whether you're new at this because it's always a great thing to find about something new and learning more and more, like a biography basically. Making this thread September 7th_2'11, it's been a great honor making this thread, hoping for the best and future and keeping the thread as awake. Everyone is welcome to post here but I do have some rules. I know, everybody hates rules, but we need them to keep this thread nice.
★ Genre: Visual Kei | J-Rock_____
ダウト is a rock band in the visual kei movement, formed on December 24th, 2006 in Japan. They were formerly known in Japan as D=OUT. However, D=OUT is their current name for European market.

In October, ダウト was signed to the Indies label SPEED-DISK and released their 2nd single “白旗宣言” (Shirohata Sengen). The following single, “ばら色ノ人生” (Bara iro no jinsei) was out on December 19.

• Please be kind to the people in the thread.
This means no disrespecting, name calling, or judging anyone's opinion because everyone out here has their settled opinion about everything, especially when it's something fan related, don't ruin their spirits now. No mood killing or making anyone feel worse in the thread since that's just not right to do something like that.
• Do not advertise in this thread or spam at all.
I dislike those things most of all because they make the thread messy looking and I really wouldn't want to destroy or yourself a perfectly new thread that's for everyone to enjoy, not just yourself. Respect this thread and good things will come to you in the future.
• Please stay on topic and if you know any other facts about them, post away!
If you have any interesting facts about this band and would like to share, please share it with u and probably i might put it in the front page giving you credit for finding this fact. I never get someone's credits and name it mine. Remember, once you post it, it's the credits you earn for finding it.
• If you dislike the band, you can post full opinion.
Remember, we're going to respect everyone's opinion, even yours. Though don't just give a post saying " it sucks. ", Cmon now, we need a reason for everything and if you just don't want to explain, well, there's other threads to go to rather than this one. Remember, don't give mood kill or the mood kill is going to go right back at you.
