profile

A one-of-a-kind band that blazed through the 90s with its ever-changing songs, crystal clear vocals, tight rhythms and heavy grooves. In 1999, vocalist/songwriter Sato Shinji suddenly passed away, forcing the band to suspend activities, but leader Mogi Kinichi’s passion led to a relaunch in 2005. They continue to perform Sato Shinji’s songs as “music of the present.”

His sound, which incorporates rock, funk and hip-hop with a base of reggae, dub and rocksteady, and his lyrics, which are beautiful and sad at the same time, have influenced many musicians and creators. Since the ban on subscription services was lifted, his work has become known around the world and he has received enthusiastic support from discerning listeners.
