Acid Black Cherry is the solo project of the flamboyant Japanese musician Yasu, best known as the former vocalist for the visual kei rock band Janne Da Arc. Launched in 2007 after Janne Da Arc went on an indefinite hiatus, Acid Black Cherry blends elements of pop and rock, with an embellishment of theater that is evident in the dramatic style of Yasu's performances and music videos.
The project witnessed a successful debut with the single "SPELL MAGIC," and has since then been a prominent fixture in the Japanese music scene. Acid Black Cherry is known for its conceptual releases like the "Recreation" series where Yasu covers famous Japanese songs from various genres, giving them his unique spin while preserving the original essence. The project also churns out original works that are characterized by a mix of hard rock and ballads, with a storytelling approach often woven into the albums. With hits like "INCUBUS," "黒猫 〜Adult Black Cat〜," and "Re:birth," amongst others, Acid Black Cherry maintains a dedicated fan base while continuing to contribute to the rich tapestry of Japanese rock music.
