Buck-Tick
BUCK-TICK is a popular Japanese rock group formed by Hisashi Imai in the early 1980s. They are sometimes associated with the visual kei style, and are regarded as one of the first bands of the movement (among X-Japan). Their name is an anglicized form of baku chiku (Japanese for "firecracker").

The band members include:

* Atsushi Sakurai on vocals
* Hisashi Imai on guitar, electronics, and miscellaneous noise
* Hidehiko Hoshino on guitar and keyboard
* Yutaka Higuchi on bass
* Toll Yagami on percussion.

Although they use different surnames, Toll and Yutaka are brothers. In the past, Buck-Tick have performed with bands such as Marilyn Manson, KMFDM, Luna Sea and Soft Ballet. The side-projects Schaft and Schwein consisted of Hisashi Imai, Atsushi Sakurai, Maki Fujii (ex. Soft Ballet), Raymond Watts (also known as "PIG" ) and Sascha Konietzko (KMFDM).
