Throughout their 10 years of activities the band experimented with a variety of different styles, such as rockabilly and surf-rock. Their lyrics–most of which were written by Asai–touched upon serious matters such as broken families and animal mistreatment, but also imaginative creatures and individuals made up in Asai’s mind. The band’s lineup remained consistent until breaking up in 2000. After the disbandment, Asai Kenichi created his own label, Sexy Stones Records, and founded the bands SHERBETS, JUDE and AJICO. Drummer Nakamura Tatsuya went on to concentrate on his LOSALIOS project, while bassist Terui Toshiyuki recorded material in bands such as ROSSO and RAVEN. In later years, he has also played bass on some of Asai Kenichi’s solo project releases.

BANG!
BLANKEY JET CITY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
お前の頭 今 吹き飛ばした
もうおしまいだぜ
オレの愛するかわいいお前よ
さよならさ
Oh 悪ふざけさオレの大好きな
そんな悲しい目をするなよ
ただ時々なぜか不吉な事が
イカレテルかもしれない
Oh 車の街に住むオレ達2人は
水分のない乾いた水色だから
Oh どこから見たっていかしてるぜ
CoolなRockみたいにけがれ知らず
Oh 行き着く所だけはきれいな
丘の上に決めているから
オレのそばから離れないで
この街は霧か深い
もしも離れ離れになれば
もう二度と会えはしないだろう
だからオレのそばから離れないで
あのきれいな丘の上に着くまで eh
Love me more.
Bang! Love me more.
Bang! Love me more.
Bang! Love me more.
Bang! Love me more.......

That's why don't leave my side
あのきれいな丘の上に着くまで eh
Until we reach that beautiful hilltop, eh

中学の時、卒業前に今までありがとうとか1人づつメッセージ書くので、好きな人に Bang! って書かれたから、帰って調べたらこの曲が出てきた。
未だにどんな意図か分からないけど、聴くと懐かしくなる。
