HIZAKI (born February 17th, 1979 in Kyoto) is a guitarist and a solo artist, most known for being a founder member of Versailles. Even though he has been an exponent of the visual kei scene for over a decade, his guitar playing has always been much closer to European metal, being mostly influenced by western heavy, power and neoclassical metal bands and guitarists.
