It's my favorite Japanese rock band "BEAT CRUSADERS"!
I love their songs and of course themselves!
I will introduce the history of BEAT CRUSADERS briefly.
In 1997, Toru Hidaka (the center in this picture) formed BEAT CRUSADERS with Mr.Iwahara. So, when BEAT CRUSADERS was born, the number of members are only two! And the form of this band is one guiterist and one dramer. It's so eccentricity!
After that, BEAT CRUSADERS changed the member over and over several times. The form of the number of members became four people gradually.
In 1999, BEAT CRUSADERS accomplished an indie debut with the first single "NEVER POP ENOUGH E.P.". BEAT CRUSADERS worked energetically. In this time, the number of members are four people, Toru Hidaka, umu, araki and thai. BEAT CRUSADERS became known to so many people, and their fan increased rapidly. Everyone recognized all their works go smoothly.
But in 2003, the shocking occurrence happened. All the member except Hidaka left. And just then, the contract with the record company has expired. The member is only one and the expiration of a contract... Everyone thoughts "BEAT CRUSADERS is over..."
But, after only three months, BEAT CRUSADERS came back!! Moreover, the number of members became five! They are Masahiko Kubota, Taro Katou, Keitaimo, Masheeta and Toru Hidaka. It's a miracle member! And BEAT CRUSADERS moved to a new record company "CAPTAIN HAUS RECORDINGS". In fact, the company is run by new member, Kubota! And all new members works several bands. So, every member is belongs to BEAT CRUSADERS and others! Every such news surprised everyone!
In 2004, finally BEAT CRUSADERS achieved a major debut. It was the start of an easy advance.
ext, I will present about five special members!
First of all, Toru Hidaka. Without he, BEAT CRUSADERS would not exist! He plays the guitar and vocal. He is very clever. He studied abroad in America for a year when he was a university student. And to tell the truth, he worked for one record company while they were active in music when BEAT CRUSADERS was four. He was not only a musician but also a businessman!
Next one is Masahiko Kubota(right in this picture). He plays the bass and chorus. He is also clever. In BEAT CRUSADERS, Hidaka and Kubota are the brains. And he really likes reading and taking pictures. He is so gentle and clever, so he has many female fan.
Taro Katou plays the guitar and chorus(left in this picture). He really likes guitars and playing it. Actually, I like his cute voice! And he has a beautiful wife. He is the most youngest person in this member.
Keitaimo is a keyboardist(the second from the rightmost). In reality, he couldn't play the keyboard till he joined BEAT CRUSADERS. But now, his skill of keyboard is great! And he also has nice wife.
Last one is Maseeta(the second from the leftmost). He is a dramer. His brilliance of dram performance is strongness. And I really like his performance! He also has cute wife and last year, his first son was born! So, the number of his family is three!
