OBLIVION DUST

major - active (1996 - )

It's hard to say who the men behind Oblivion Dust were. The line up changed frequently, but most people, upon hearing the name, would probably think of the line up from the times when Oblivion Dust were at the peak of their popularity: Ken (vocals), Kaz (guitar), Furuton (drums), Rikiji (bass) and May (guitar).

Their original style was created by a group of experienced musicians: all of them had been in different bands before, and Oblivion Dust's music was mainly created by Kaz, an ex-member of (hide and the) Spread Beaver. What also made them stand out in the crowd of other Japanese bands was the fact that, due to Ken's mixed Japanese-English background, a big part of their songs were written and sung in English.
