This is a long overdue thread for the self-proclaimed "heaviest idols in the world" Guso Drop. As such, they do rock music, with an emphasis on a fun live experience with all sorts going on - the members like to crowdsurf, walk all over the crowds, spit water all over them, and sometimes slap them. Rei sometimes wanders about with a baseball bat and Yura will hit you over the head with a plastic mallet. Saki and Rei do the screaming.

Saki is also a solo artist by the name of 2& (pronounced DOUBLEAND). This project started a couple of years before Guso Drop, and was originally a 2-piece. Originally they treated Guso Drop Saki and 2& Saki as different people, before revealing, in late 2015, that they were indeed the same person.

There was a 5th member, Shion, who left to study for university. She was absent at the end of 2015 for a while before returning, but then decided to quit. The group then decided to continue on as a 4-piece and the old songs were slightly re-arranged to suit.
