Fruity (4)

Ska-punk/skacore band from Japan, active from 1995 until 1997. Fruity's biggest musical influence was Operation Ivy. In 1997, the band's original singer Jun "JxJx" Saitoh switched to drums upon departure of drummer Jerry-O, and then-14-year-old Yuki joined as their new singer. With this new lineup, they toured the U.S. (West Coast) with bands like Against All Authority and Falling Sickness before calling in quits shortly after in Fall 1997. JxJx went on to form fastcore band School Jackets and ska band Your Song Is Good.
