In the genre of Heavy Metal played by women,
this all-female band fronted and formed by lead guitarist Mina in 2005, have taken the baton originally passed from The Runaways to Girlschool, evolving with the music and pushing it further beyond their counterparts to show that metal maidens are here to stay .

Destrose are a classic, orthodox Heavy Metal outfit armed with catchy melodies and choruses that put many of their male contemporaries to shame.

Since signing with YggrDrasill Productions in 2007,
they have quite a stir in various quarters as the young girls' Metal band, and have been introduced to Japan with features in various specialist magazines including BURRN! and WE ROCK.


Just a few of their recent events include:
■ Performing with the AKIRA TAKASAKI BAND consisting of AKIRA TAKASAKI of LOUDNESS and TAIJI SAWADA of D.T.R.
■ Mina is endorsed by Hagstrom Guitars and was chosen as one of the demonstrators on their stand at the Instrument Fair in 2007.
■ Performing with 5X led by George Azuma, a heavyweight of Japanese Rock world.

You would be wise to catch them now.

These roses are budding and opening fast and with a new album due by the end of 2008,it will not belong before they are in full bloom and taking to the bigger stages of the world.
