Guitar virtuoso KELLY SIMONZ (not his given name) was raised in Japan, relocating to the USA in 1989 to attend the Guitar Institute of Technology. Upon graduation Simonz indulged humself in session work prior to a return to Japan in 1994. In 1998 he released his debut solo album, a half instrumental / half vocal effort with a heavy neo-classical influence, under the 'KELLY SIMONZ' BLIND FAITH' moniker on his own label, Blind Faith. Recorded in his own Faith Studios in Osaka, the record he wrote, recorded, mixed and engineered the entire project. Later in the year he released a five-song, CD-R demo entitled 'Stay In My Heart'.

KELLY SIMONZ 1999 'Silent Scream' album was once again a fully self-financed release. That year Simonz forged the band unit BLIND FAITH alongside bassist Keisuke Nishomoto and drummer Tetsuya Hoshiyama.

Korean label Sail Productions re-issued the debut in 2001, adding extra tracks. 2002 was a busy year for KELLY SIMONZ as he struck a deal with the Finnish label Lion Music for worldwide distribution of his albums. He also wrote and recorded his third album 'The Rule Of Right' Lion reissued both of his first albums with various bonus tracks and alternate tracks pulled from his demo and Korean release. For example 'Sign of The Times' dropped the tracks, 'Cry for Love' and 'I'll Never Say Goodbye' but added, 'Still' and 'King of The Castle' from the album 'Rule Of Right' album and added 'Pain' from the demo and a live track. The third album 'The Rule Of Right' also recieved world-wide distribution through Lion and added three songs, 'Dancing On The Edge', 'Blind Faith (Jungle Mix)' and 'Etude'. Despite the jumble of reissues and alternate track listings, KELLY SIMONZ remains a respected guitar hero in the Japanese tradition.

In 2005 bassist Keisuke Nishimoto, in union with DEMON DRIVE guitarist Thorsten Koehne and Frank Kraus, of DEMON DRIVE and LETTER X, on drums, forged shred trio CODE OF PERFECTION, debuting with the album 'Last Exit For The Lost'.

Review “The Rule Of Right” 2002:

In melodic hard rock history we’ve seen bands like Rainbow, Malmsteens Rising Force and later on Axel Rudy Pell who where famous because their neoclassical influences. Blind Faith is a band formed around a gifted guitarist Kelly Simonz. He started playing the guitar at the age of 14. At his 15th year he already showcased his ability’s in a band where he played covers from Yngwie Malmsteen and Akira Takasaki. A little while later he was a support act of the eighties Japanese hero’s Loudness. At the age of 18 he started song writing because he want to be a famous rockstar. It wasn’t easy to achieve his goal. In the year 1994 his brother died so he decided to start a solo career. After releasing his "Sign of Times" album in Japan he went famous in the country of the rising sun. In the early summer of 2000 he formed a new band "Blind Faith" and released his album "The Rule of Right".

On this album are a few tracks from his earlier work. Those tracks "Still" and "King Of The Castle" were rearranged for this album. This album contains a lot of high standard melodic hard rock tracks but it is not exactly similar to Yngwie’s or Rainbow’s work. Occasionally it sounds more powerful and speedy. My favourite track is one of those speedy ones "King Of The Castle" Which reminds me to Iced Earth. Nevertheless you can’t deny, Kelly Simonz has the same ambiance and musical arrangements in comparison with Rainbow & Malmseen. It’s evident that some pieces of the album have some real medieval classical elements, I refer to Blackmore’s Night. Listening to "Till The End Of Time" you felt the sensitive spheres of this composition, due to the quality of Kelly’s vocals and amazing sense to play the guitar."Still" reminds me to the early days of Simon & Garfuncle, for now I can conclude, he managed to combine a lot of styles without losing their reliability.Partitia BWV 826 could be one of Mercyfull Fate’s Masterpieces cause he also didn’t avoid the classical and a bit doomy aspects of music. The original CD ends with an Piece of sorrow on the piano but bonustrack "Dancing On The Edge" sends the sorrow away and replaced the whole bunch with an instrumental translation of howling fury like hundred mad horses going wild. "Etude" is a Tristitia kind of arrangement on the piano that ends the album with grace. There are a few things I like to mention. The production of this album is very good. For those who like true guitar violence with some classical movements performing sweetness and bitterness in a more metal way. Go for this complete package of virtuoso.
