FENCE OF DEFENSE is a Japanese rock band that’s been blending technical precision with melodic flair since forming in the mid-1980s. Originally anchored by guitarist Kyoji Yamamoto (formerly of Bow Wow) alongside bassist Yoshihiro Naruse and drummer Hiroyuki Takami, the group carved a niche with their fusion of hard rock, progressive elements, and synth-driven experimentation. Their self-titled 1987 debut set the tone, and albums like *FENCE OF DEFENSE II* and *III* solidified their reputation for intricate musicianship and polished production. Known for both instrumental prowess and collaborations with artists like Masami Okui, they took a hiatus in the 1990s before returning in the 2000s with releases like *GREAT FREAKERS BEST* (2007), celebrating their 20-year legacy. Their sound remains a cult favorite among fans of Japan’s golden-era rock scene.
