Bloody Ears & Beer Gets Evil


Ryo, vocalist and guitarist for Tokyo metal band Evil, is tall and thin with a narrow face and long hair, and if you were to put him in a black suit with a black shirt and matching tie he’d look exactly like the sort of person Jackie Chan eventually kicks through a window in every single movie, tv show, or car commercial he’s ever filmed. There’s just something about Ryo’s face and frame that suggests he was born to wear a sharp black suit and live surrounded by other karate villains of the sort that threaten Jackie Chan with knives and bats and chains after Jackie, through an unbelievable series of coincidences and mistaken identities, has inadvertently stolen their parcel of drugs or talisman or disc containing national secrets or whatever.
