Artist

Also credited as: Lyricist (1 song)・Composer (1 song)・Arranger (1 song)

JI-ZO is a solo project by Akira Takasaki, the guitarist of Japanese heavy metal band LOUDNESS and also known as the guitarist of the rock band LAZY. The project handled 'BROKEN CAMERA,' the ending theme of the OVA/TV anime 'Geneshaft.' Takasaki wrote the lyrics, music and arrangement himself and played most of the instruments, giving the track a unified sonic vision. The song closes this sci-fi series with sturdy guitar work and a raw vocal rooted in hard-rock and heavy-metal traditions, paired on the same single with the opening theme 'Shaft Drive' credited to Akira Takasaki.
