Less "news" and more a "cool discovery": it was recently uncovered in the vkgy discord that Kisaki's super early band, SHËY≠DË actually went by a different name when they formed: Lusicious!
This discovery was made by someone sharing clippings from the Vol. 7 of Vicious magazine from 1994. It's unclear when they changed their name, but it seemed to happen pretty quickly after forming.
