Yamataka Eye (born Tetsurō Yamatsuka) is a Japanese vocalist and visual artist, best known as a member of Boredoms, Hanatarash and Naked City. Born in Kobe, Eye is a founder of the influential rock band, Boredoms, whose first major label release came out in the early ‘90s. They were signed to Warner Bros. (Chocolate Synthesizer era) by David Katznelson, then A&R VP of Warner Bros. The closest thing Boredoms have to a frontman, Eye offers a variety of vocal techniques: gurgles, screams, grunts and occasionally, relatively conventional singing. In the later days of Boredoms and in today’s V∞redoms he plays electronics and open reel tapes.
