Career
In 2005 voice actor Kishō Taniyama ("Kishow") and musician Masaaki Iizuka ("E-Zuka"), known for his collaborations in creating anime soundtracks, decided to create a new project. During their years as a band, they released a few singles that were used as opening singles for the anime series.
In 2007 they released their first album, Ride on the Edge, and in 2008 they release a second album, Instinct. In spring 2009 they started working on the soundtrack, the series Needless, for which E-Zuka wrote the soundtracks and Kishow wrote the lyrics for the song "Modern Strange Cowboy". By the end of 2009, they released their third album, Brush the Scar Lemon. In 2011 they released their fourth album, Supernova, and in 2012 they released their fifth album Crack Star Flash.
