He first started playing bass in a band called Black Rose. A short time later, his childhood neighbor and close friend, Akira Takasaki, invited him to join Loudness in 1981.
In 1991, Yamashita left Loudness; it was rumored that he did not get along with lead singer Mike Vescera, who replaced Niihara in 1989. After leaving Loudness, he worked on side projects, including Spaed and Blood Circus. He returned to Loudness in 2001.

gollark: The Random Stuff API also connects to *this*, for reasons (it used to do more with this, but that got split out into ircsysmon), and broadcasts the current track into a dedicated #o channel also bridged to the Test 2 Discord guild, which a bunch of my stuff runs in.
gollark: Onto the other bits of the diagram. ngircd is an IRC server, and the osmarks.net instance of this participates in APIONET.
gollark: It was actually on caddy for quite a while, but v2 annoyed me, so I went back to nginx.
gollark: I have about 500 lines of horribly entangled configuration files driving this, despite the original design of osmarks.net (formerly osmarks.tk) calling for it to mostly be a static website.
gollark: Now, the diagram says "nginx". Nginx is also an important part of this setup. It is a reverse proxy allowing me to run all this slightly crazy stuff on one IP, and encrypt with "HTTPS" apiotechnology.
