Buck-Tick
Members
 
Atsushi Sakurai - Vocal
 
Birth : 7 March 1966 (Pisces)
 
A very beautiful voice and expressive artist on stage, he was born to be a singer ^^. In the very beginning, he was the drummer of the band, then became the lead vocals. He lost his father when he was at high scool, then few years later his mother, while Buck-Tick was number one in Japan. Several songs are dedicated to his mother, and resemble ambiguous love songs.

Hisashi Imai - Guitar 

Birth : 21 October 1965 (Libra)

A very original guy, musician, guitarist and dancer (?) ^^. He is the founder of the band and the one who named it. He is usually right-handed but plays guitars as a left-hander, just because he feels more comfortable this way. He is a true genius who composes without respite numerous amazing songs.

Hidehiko Hoshino - Guitar
 
Birth : 16 June 1966 (Gemini)
 
Also called "Hide", he is the most "normal" one of the band ^^. When it was about to form the band, he was designated to become the singer (just because he looks cool ^^) but he preferred to be guitarist, a more discreete position. He doesn't compose as prolifically as Hisashi, but he is the author of magnificent songs such as "Jupiter" or "Flower of illusion".

Yutaka Higuchi - Bass 

Birth : 24 January 1967 (Aquarius)

Also called "U-ta", he is the younger brother of the drummer Toll. He is the most sociable (and the most talkative ^^) one of the band. He had the occasion to learn how to play bass by his brother's band's bassist, so that he decided to become the bassist of Buck-Tick when it was about to form the band.

Toll Yagami - Drums
 
Birth : 19 August 1962 (Leo)
 
Also called "Aniki" = (elder) brother, because he is the eldest of the band ^^. He inherited the drum set of his older brother Tooru (hence his nickname) who died of after-effects of an accident. After his own band broke up, U-ta convinced him to become Buck-Tick's drummer.
