Since HYDE keeps his personal information scarce, much about him is either unknown or unofficial, including his real name, purported to be Hideto Takarai. He confirmed his birthdate (January 29, 1969) in an interview for the 2002 March issue of Rockin On Japan.
HYDE's debut as a solo artist was in October 2001, when he released his first solo single, Evergreen. After two more singles, Angel's Tale and Shallow Sleep, HYDE released his first solo album, ballad-filled ROENTGEN, in March 2002. An overseas edition featuring English lyrics was released in July. His next two singles, HELLO and HORIZON, both including a b-side track not found on any album, were released prior to his second album, rockish 666, all in late 2003.
While reuniting with L'Arc~en~Ciel after a 3 year hiatus, HYDE continued his solo career. He composed the music for the song Glamorous Sky, sung by 中島美嘉 (Mika Nakashima) and to be used in the movie NANA. HYDE's next single Countdown was released in October 2005, it included Japanese & English versions of the title song. Another single, Season's Call, was used as the second opening theme to the anime show Blood+, starting in January 2006. The single was released in February. Third album FAITH was released in April, and it can be describes as hard rock with religious touch. The album was accompanied by a five-month tour with many locations in Japan, and four concerts in California, USA. Following the completion of the tour, a DVD of the concerts was released in November.
In addition to his musical career, HYDE has also starred in movies Moon Child and 下弦の月 (Kagen no Tsuki, also known as Last Quarter).
In early 2008, HYDE formed a new unit, VAMPS, with his fellow guitarist K.A.Z – and released a photobook ominously named HYDE IS DEAD.

The lyrics of Hyde's song "Fruits of Chaos" is full of metaphors and imagery that appears to question the motivations behind creating chaos. The opening line asks why chaos was created, and specifically references the "fruits" of chaos, hinting at a metaphorical tree that yields the fruits of destruction. The following lines suggest that the chaos was created for someone's enjoyment, and that they have been consuming it without letting any go to waste. Meanwhile, the singer of the song laments their own condition, feeling as though they are a dead doll who will not wake up.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more introspective, questioning the role of scripted entertainment and the promise of a nonexistent future. Despite this, the chorus continues its refrain of "I'm just a doll forever dead, wake up," suggesting a desire to break free from the figurative chains that are holding the singer down. The song ends with the realization that the human soul is fulfilled when it understands the true meaning of life – implying that perhaps the chaos that was created was ultimately misguided and pointless.
Overall, the lyrics of "Fruits of Chaos" seem to be a commentary on the destructive nature of intentionally created chaos, and the emptiness that often accompanies a life without meaning. The repeated phrase "I'm just a doll forever dead, wake up" suggests a longing to break free from the constraints of the chaos and find purpose and fulfillment in life.
