Japanese composer, lyricist, arranger, and musician renowned as the mastermind creator of the musical projects Sound Horizon and Linked Horizon.REVO is a Japanese musician and composer, born December 19, 1975, in Tokyo, Japan. He founded the narrative music project Sound Horizon in 2001, pioneering the "fantasy band" concept with elaborate storylines across albums performed by various vocalists. He later formed Linked Horizon in 2012, achieving massive mainstream success through anime theme songs, most notably "Guren no Yumiya" and "Shinzou wo Sasageyo!" for Attack on Titan. REVO is known for his symphonic rock style, complex narratives, theatrical live performances, and often maintains an air of mystery, rarely showing his face publicly.

• REVO is famously private, often wearing sunglasses, masks, or elaborate costumes during public appearances, contributing to an enigmatic persona. His true appearance is not widely publicized.
• Sound Horizon concerts are elaborate theatrical productions, akin to musicals or operas, featuring costumes, stage sets, and acting alongside the music, solidifying the "fantasy band" concept.
• Linked Horizon was created specifically to produce theme songs for the Attack on Titan anime. The massive popularity of these songs ("Guren no Yumiya", "Jiyuu no Tsubasa", "Shinzou wo Sasageyo!") catapulted REVO to unprecedented mainstream fame in Japan and internationally, distinct from his Sound Horizon work.
• REVO's music often features complex, multi-album spanning narratives (particularly in Sound Horizon), intricate arrangements blending rock with classical and folk elements, and a large recurring cast of vocalists called "Voices".
