"Although this page is "My (Yasu Arakawa's)" parsonal page as a drummer, let me inform you about my deep relations Band, please."

I had been playing as session drummer with various artists. I didn't want to belong to any bands! But "now" I join two bands. One of band, Named "Manriki", is "Cramps" by English means. ..The other band is "The Stars". (is not concerned to US Band...)
The Stars are "You Ishihara [Vo. & G.] (ex White Heaven: is legendary Japanese psychedlic band...)" , "Michio Kurihara [G.] (Ghost. Damon & Naomi(tour & rec. supported))", Chiyo Kamekawa [B.] (Yura Yura Teikoku)" and Me [Ds.]. The Stars has "a style of Heavy & Melodic PSYCHEDELIC" music. If you are interested in our band, please visit site: Pedal Records. You can get our materials. If you stay in NYC, you can get them at "Other Music". And we have relations with "boris". you know?.. Broke UP!!
