Names The Same is no longer a trope


* NamesTheSame: Played with. Signed his name as "Tooru Niimura" more than once as a joke (the name of a Japanese AV director), and everyone ran with it. See SelfProclaimedLiar below.

Kyo is widely known in the heavy metal scene as one of the most talented and versatile vocalists currently active; his style, which ranges [[SopranoAndGravel from melodic singing to his signature unclean vocal style]], combining [[HarshVocals guttural death growls]], [[MetalScream screaming]] and [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl high-pitched shrieks]]. His frequent hospitalizations can be attributed to this vocal style: he has been hospitalized for hearing problems in 2000 (his left ear has remained partially deaf) and, in 2006 and 2009, received surgery for inflamed vocal cords. Of equal notoriety is his manner of performance, which involves plenty [[ParanoiaFuel of]] [[NightmareFuel shock]] [[NauseaFuel elements]] such as fake ([[NauseaFuel and real]]) vomit, spastic-zombie-like twitching, large, open wounds of varying levels of authenticity, heavy makeup resembling [[BlackMetal corpse paint]], and various acts of [[SelfMutilationDemonstration self-mutilation]]. However, he has recently toned down this violent stage persona.

* IncrediblyLongNote: One of the masters of this in the modern Japanese metal scene. There are only five Japanese vocalists who can come close at holding a note as long as Kyo does - [[Music/ToshimitsuDeyama ToshI]] of Music/XJapan, Ryuichi Kawamura of Music/LunaSea, Eizo Sakamoto ex-Anthem, Koshi Inaba of B'z and Music/YamaB ex Music/{{Galneryus}}.
