Dope HEADz

 

Band formed by Heath and Pata, ex-X Japan, and I.N.A., ex-Spread Beaver / Zilch. They play a quite nice hard rock, they won't reinvent the style but still it's really good... at least after the very few seconds, when I.N.A. likes to show you how much he likes his electro/programming stuff... but you quickly listen Pata's guitar, and then it becomes... gooooood! It's the kind of music hide composed, which looks quite normal considering who is in the band, but less "trashy", "uncontrolled" (but it's normal after all: hide played in a "trashy" way, while Pata is more "bluesy"). I really like this band... but they didn't have much success, probably because they weren't a band of young-sweet-girl-looking-guys-wearing-quite-special-suits: They decided to "have a break" in early 2003... future split? no one knows... Anyway Pata now seems to play in a band called Ra:In, rock band of course, it's Pata after all, we don't know about the two others.
Also note that there is a different singer on each album: the first is doing a solo career, don't know much about it, the second one... well we don't know yet what he' s going to do during "the break".
