Can) and a member of Godman, which was formed by Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple), as a guitarist, and Takayuki Enomoto, a former member of Mandog, as a bassist.
in 2004, Miyashita and Enomoto joined Mani Neumeier's japan tour after they were asked by the promoter of the tour, Captain Trip Records. after that, Neumeier asked them to play live together again as a result of performing well while on tour, leading them to form DRUGON. they performed live at several places including Tokyo Tower's Wax Museum, which was popular for its impressive collection of Krautrock waxworks including Mani Neumeier, himself. in march 2014, during Mani Neumeier's japan tour, DRUGON resumed being active for the first time in 9 years to prepare for this first ever release.
