Meteor is an artists' unit of music and CG animation from Asakusa, Tokyo, formed in 1996. Musically, they took an unique approach, trying to integrate western pop and japanese traditional music. They are also prolific CG creators, and won many CG-related awards in the past. The CG works are featured in their live performance, too. The first album, Chemistry of Children (1999), was produced by Hikashu's bass player, Sakaide Masami.

About Me

- Hi. I'm an avid follower of a Japanese rock band, Hikashu. They are formed in 1978 and still going strong. Simply put, they are the greatest band from Japan. Really. They play some pretty good compositions, and collective improvisation of mastery kind. If you like the Mothers of Invention, Henry Cow, John Zorn, Derek Bailey, or any kind of good music plus having a sense of humor, just try them. They are so unique that I cannot describe what the band exactly is, but I try my best. Also, I did all the translations of the lyrics, except where noted. DISCLAIMER: This blog is NOT official and NOT affiliated with Hikashu in any way. The opinion expressed here is solely mine, an advocate of the band, and it doesn't reflect their intention. Take a note for that, and have fun.
