Introducing D’sko
2
Feb, 2012
As always, the start of the year seems to bring around unexpected and unfortunate disbanding announcements. However, it’s also a time for new bands to begin!
D’sko is a band that started in November, and who had their first (demonstration) live on December 9th at Shibuya REX.
They’re a four member band with the following line-up:
Vocals - シト (Shito) [ex-MELISSA, ex-Veronica]
Guitar - HISAKI [ex-MELISSA, ex-haunted, ex-Rucid, ex-MerCurius]
Bass - テラ (Tera) [ex-VALQUR, ex-KiraLez, ex-LaTeratool, ex-6→7]
Drums - KARUTO [ex-Siva, ex-haunted, ex-Valls, ex-MELISSA]
Along with having individual blogs (click on the member’s names to visit), they also have a D’sko official blog on visulog.
Their demo CD was called 「極彩地底パラダイス」 (Gokusai Chitei Paradise) and was released as a free CD at ZEAL LINK stores, closet child, Pure Sound, Like an Edison (Shinjuku only), Jishuban Club and Lucy’s Pocket.
On January 23rd, the band performed at their first official live at Shibuya REX alongside other bands such as BLACK CAT, D’uAl, 黒雛-kurobina, BACALLA and others. That day, they also released a second demo CD (untitled).
