DUSTZ is a Japanese rock quartet currently under Epic Records Japan (a division of Sony Music) and based in Tokyo, Japan. The name originated from a Japanese word game, since "dust" and "pride" are homonyms in Japanese ("hokori"). It also holds reference to a quote from the Ancient Testament "from dust you are made and to dust you shall return".
As childhood friends from the Lycée franco-japonais de Tokyo (a French international school in Tokyo), Ray, Gus and KenT decided to create the group in high school upon Ray's suggestion in October 2005. They did not have an official drummer until Naoki joined in 2007. They performed at various venues in Tokyo and Osaka.
Prior to their major debut, they had two releases under Be On Key Records. Their first single Future, Endless Blue, Rain ranked number 2 on the indie charts at Tower Records and their second single Lapis Lazuli ranked number 1 on the indie charts and number 3 overall at Tower Records.
DUSTZ signed under Epic Records Japan in March 2009. Their first major single Break & Peace was released in May 2009, and was used as the ending theme song for the anime Sengoku BASARA. Their first major performance was at the 28th music festival in Paris, France. They are expecting their next single in the fall and are also preparing for their first album.

La nature charmee
par ces accords,
Jour et jour passe tout doux
Ces temps que j'ai aime
Toi, toujours a cote de moi
Rien ne peut separer notre lien,
Face a face en souriant
瞬間に 崩れる日々に
永遠に 離れる君に
Je cherche ta voix
君が残した言葉
Qu'est-ce que tu vois?
僕がまだ知れない景色は
この枯れた心に もう嘆き疲れて
奏でる音も 奪われていく
Maintenant que j'ai perdu ma foi
Je fais que
m'assoir a cette place
Temps en temps
je pleure tout seul
Je sents la solitude
“Qu'est-ce qu'il
m'est arrive soudain?
Qu'est-ce que
je deviendrai demain?”
Cache ma face en me demandant
Cette parole me maudit
散々に 疲れた日々に
段々に 芽生える想い
Je marche ma voie 日没の示す先
Qu'est-ce que je crois?
取り戻す消えない景色を
世界の終りで 閉ざされた扉も
奏でる声が 開くだろう
Le roi m'a exauce
mon voeu mais a une condition
“Ne te retourne pas
avant de quitter le royaume”
振りむかずに行こう
Enfin la, je me retourne
pour voir ton sourire
que j'attendais
Qu'est-ce que je vois,
sa figure bleuit
qui s'enfuit et disparait
Personne la,
je sais que la mort est
qu'une etape a passer
Je cherche ta voix,
je marche ma voie,
Qu'est-ce que je vois
Je reste a toi 闇を抜け出した先
Qu'est-ce qu'on voi?
二人しか知らない景色は
君といれるだけで
もう何もいらない
奏でる絆 繋がっていく
The lyrics of DUSTZ's song "Orphee" convey a sense of longing, perseverance, and ultimately, acceptance. The opening lines suggest that the singer is a musician who creates precious melodies that have the power to charm nature itself. The following lines express a sense of nostalgia for times past that the singer cherished, and the reassurance of having someone who will always be by their side. However, the mood suddenly shifts as the singer laments their loss of faith, and the emotional weight they carry every day. They seek solace in the words left behind by their loved one, hoping to rediscover the beauty and meaning in their life.
