A group that's kept their faces hidden since 2002 while writing songs for anime and radio.
If you want to hear what they're about, try "Green Boys" or "460 (Your Song)." They're good examples of how the music does the talking.
They've managed to build a catalog of 128 songs without ever showing their faces, which is pretty rare in pop music. Tracks like "Green Boys" and "Reggae Reggae" work because the melodies are straightforward and the lyrics connect without needing a celebrity face attached. Their music for "Naruto" and "Fullmetal Alchemist" introduced that sound to people who might not have found them otherwise.
They formed in 2002 with Hideo Suzuki on vocals, Eiko Yamaguchi writing most of the music, Shuhei Murayama arranging, and Kuniyoshi Tanimura producing. The debut album "A.D. 2002" established their masked approach from the start. They've just kept making songs in that same low-key way, without much public fanfare about who does what.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
