Dirty Trashroad, or D.T.R. for short, consisted of a rag-tag group of musicians that were formerly a part of other various rock projects and groups. They formed in the mid 90s and were one of the few Japanese groups that could actually be described as “melodic heavy metal.” D.T.R. songs featured all English lyrics, powerful melodies with a driving, throbbing rhythm, strong vocals and Fujimoto Taiji’s masterful guitar technique. The fact that ex X bassist Taiji was also a member just added to their popularity. While they were only around for a very short time, they left a very strong impact on the metal world and the former members can still be found today in other musical units and projects.
