Along with Nagao's disappearance and their music's gentle descent into mundane uniformity, now they really have become the definitive pop rock group, with all the personality of day-old bread.
To put it into perspective, I think DAI is perhaps the most boring, and unoriginal act in all of jmusic, or at least close to it.
 I liked that DAI was trying something different when they released songs such as "Honjitsu wa seiten nari" and "Would you marry me?", because you could at least see an attempt at a change in style or making their music more interesting.

They don't write their own songs (composer Dai Nagao does all their stuff), and I'm pretty sure Van doesn't write her own lyrics, but they *have* been kicking my ass all year anyway.
Van's voice is audio gold, and their songs vary from the surf-punk of "Summer Days" to the bubblegummy "Fukai Mori" ("Deep Forest," the second ED song from Inu-Yasha).
DAI need to come tour the States soon, or at least get their damn CDs distributed in North America.

I mean I just thought it would be natural for a girl to like Dai-san but I never said a guy cannot "like" him (as in admire him or respect him).
Well, even if Dai-san disappears from DAI completely, it'll still be the band that he founded, and also the band that evolved from his given name :-)
: About Dai, it's very reassuring to : hear : that he's still making (minor) : appearances in tours as that's all : I'd feel comfortable asking from : such a great composer...

 Do As Infinity Reviews
Do As Infinity is a Japanese group that consists of female vocalist Tomiko Van, guitarist, composer, and programmer Dai Nagao and guitarist Ryo Owatari plus occasional guests on each album.
The trio released their first single in 1999 after Dai was getting sick of his job as a composer and wanted to finally form his own band.
The bands got both their fast rocking songs (Gates of Heaven, Honjitsu wa seiten nari, Thanksgiving Day, etc.) that are very addictive and they’ve also got their slower more heartfelt songs (Hiiragi, Blanco, Field of Dreams) that are very touching and beautiful sounding.

On top of that, one of Van’s neighbours secretly sent her profile to the Avex company, that soon fell under her spell, and the company called her the next day, telling her she has been chosen for joining a band composed by a new composer called Nagao DAI(34) and a talented guitarist named Ryo Owatari(34).
After the fifth single We are., Nagao decided he wouldn’t appear neither in band promotional campaigns nor in CD booklets anymore.
Indeed, with all the TV shows and concerts, Nagao couldn’t find any more time to compose, which could have meant the near ending of the band.

In Do As Infinity's latest single, composer Dai Nagao, after whom the band is named, shows his roots as one of superstar Ayumi Hamasaki's first songwriters.
At his command, guitarist Ryo Owatari exchanges the electric guitar for some light acoustic chords, and vocalist Tomiko Van pulls back a few notches.
Van's pulsating vocals give a feeling that DAI is brewing at a temperature just warm enough to smolder, but that they could explode at any moment.
