Biography

Sumi, founder member of CSSO, was born in 1976. He started playing guitar by influence of his elder brother Naru when he was in junior high school. At that time, as most of young boys tend to go with fast and speed music, naturally he also started listening bands like METALLICA, ANTHRAX, SLAYER and MEGADETH.

Important thing was he didn't receive baptism of super guitar hero era, so his interest　was not how to play light-hand tapping and fast guitar solo like Eddie van helen, but making strong song. Anyway, so called "big four" and Thrash metal movement was strong influence for 14 years old student.

When he was in high school, Takeshi, later CSSO drummer brought 1 cd to Sumi's house.

It was NAPALM DEATH's Scum with 54 track and we were totally knocked out by it's artwork and legend song "you suffer". First meeting with underground music was so astonishing, after that they started searching that way.

It was one such day, Naru got 1 fanzine called "No Deception" published in Japan. And then our belief that "we must go with underground" was decided and Sumi, Naru and Takashi started making fanzine called "Circle of the Grind".

Close relationship with underground music scene encouraged us greatly, especially music from Grind core,

we received freedom. So it was natural flow that we formed CSSO in 1993.

Other conspicuous incident is as follows,'95 1st album relese from german Morbid records, In '96 Euro tour with DEAD INFECTION and HAEMORRHAGE, In '99 central america tour, In '00 2nd album release from german Morbid records, In '01 performing in Fuck the commerce festival　 in germany. In '02 disband.

I am not sure about the reason why we disband and reunion,

but graciously if I quote words from Robert flipp, it's like a "when grind scene needs CSSO, we appear".
