Hisashi (musician)
Before becoming successful, Hisashi worked in various part-time jobs including at a gaming center and a convenience store, while meeting to perform in live houses during the night.Together with his bandmate Jiro, the two are particularly known for their visual kei looks and on-stage theatrics, however, in recent years the pair have toned down their image, sporting more contemporary clothing and hairstyles.Songs written by Hisashi often display strong punk and electronic influences and his lyrics are typically more abstract and metaphorical than those of Takuro and the other members.Hisashi formed the side-band Rally with Teru (Glay), Kouji Ueno (The Hiatus and ex-Thee Michelle Gun Elephant) and Motokatsu Miyagami (The Mad Capsule Markets).On December 12, 2008, Hisashi was the special guest in the Blue Man Group show "Rock Day"; they played "Time to Start" and Glay's song "However".In January 2009, he launched a regular TV program, RX-72: Hisashi vs Mogi Jun'ichi, which is shown on the third Monday of each month on channel Music On!
