The Konami Kukeiha Club band was formed by Motoaki Furukawa, a composer working for the game firm Konami, after his work on Gradius III back in 1990. It was formed by members of Konami's music production department, mirroring similar bands at the time from other game companies such as Falcom and Sega.
The band even has two official albums: A self-titled back in 1990 featuring 5 original songs and five cover tracks and a second album entitled HOPE in 1993 featuring 10 original tracks.
Afterward, they became a cover/in-house band and thus was born Konami Kukeiha Club. The band has done many songs, including the famous rock version of the Metal Gear Solid 2 for the hidden mini-game, and the Castlevania album Dracula Best Battle Perfect Selection in 1994.

The members consist of:

* Motoaki Furukawa: All Guitars & Programming
* Mami Asano : Keyboards
* Kenichi Mitsuda : Keyboards
* Tappy (Tappi Iwase): Drums & Percussion
