Mm~ well, I felt like making a thread, and who better to make it about than the talented musician HIZAKI?

He has been in several bands, the more 'famous' (if that term is really applicable to small visual indies bands xD) of which were Schwardix Marvally, and Sulfuric Acid. In between his time with SM, and SA, he released several solo CDs (Maiden Ritual, and Grace, along with a special Double Pack could Dance With Grace, which contained an extra disc with instrumental versions of Maiden Ritual, and also a message disc).

Personally, I liked Schwardix Marvally's music - Hisui's vocals suited HIZAKI's style perfectly. Sulfuric Acid, on the other hand, I thought was a bit... hmm. Not so good xD Maiden Ritual, the original release, featured Fu-Ki from BLOOD as vocalist. I like Blood, a bit, but his vocals just did not go at al lwell with Hizaki's music. I recommend Grace, or Maiden Ritual-experiment edition- first, and then suffer the first release xD

His solo music was what I adore the most, I really recommend it to anyone who appreciates good guitarist. He tends to create melodic metal style music. The guy is wonderful ♥ He also plays, I believe, all of the other instruments on the songs, except drums, but i'm not 100% sure, and can't check right now xD

HIZAKI's solo project is continuing since Sulfuric Acid's disbandment, and will feature several other noticable musicians; JUKA (ex. Moi Dix Mois), Teru (Aikaryu), Ismai (ex. Jyakura. I'm personally very excited to see him on the scene again) and Beikei (ex. Babylon).

So~ Does anyone else like the mans music, visuals, or... Want to hear anything?

I'm considering picking up his newest cd when it comes out with Juka on vocals. I've heard great things about it so far, and have gotten a little more interested in what it sounds like with M10M's ex vocalist. :D

His work with Sulphuric Acid was terrible. His solo releases were good, minus some of the guest vocals he had. I'll definitely check out his upcoming project with Juka.

This is a picture from one of the project member's blogs:

The caption under it was 'The Family buying things' XD

That's Juka up front, and I believe that's Hizaki next to him- I've no idea who's in the back there. If I'm wrong about that being Hizaki or you know who that person in the back is, please post it! :D

Seriously, I wonder how many people were freaked out by them walking into the grocery store like that? XD

Hizaki is an amazing guitarist! Versailles is amazing! I love their new album Noble. Hizaki's guitar is awesome as always.
None of the people in the picture look like Hizaki... It would definately have been interesting to see them at the store...
Hizaki grace project is amazing!
I like the songs Hizaki composed for Juka's solo, too. Like Kakusei no Jukai.
