Coldrain is a Japanese post-hardcore band, formed in Nagoya in 2007. The band merges the intensity of metalcore with melodic elements of modern rock, creating a distinct sound that transcends language barriers. The members consist of Masato David Hayakawa as the lead vocalist, who is known for his powerful voice and dynamic stage presence, alongside guitarists Y.K.C (Yokochi) and Sugi (Kazuya Sugiyama), bassist RxYxO (Ryo Shimizu), and drummer Katsuma Minatani. Their international upbringing and influences draw from a range of rock and metal subgenres, contributing to their diverse and energetic style.

Coldrain has made significant strides both in Japan and overseas, carving out a niche in the global rock scene. Albums like "VENA," "VENA II," and "FATELESS" have showcased their ability to craft explosive tracks with emotive lyrics, while their energetic singles such as "THE SIDE EFFECTS," "ENVY," and "FEED THE FIRE" have continued to expand their fan base.
