Shusaku Endo was born in Tokyo in 1923.
Endo's "moral weaklings" continually restage the problematic encounter between Japanese and western understandings of self and God, an encounter which, as Endo's work develops, comes to be increasingly characterised by an ongoing interrogation of the word "betrayal".
By the time Endo reached the second half of his career it was clear that the defining theme of his oeuvre was the yawning chasm between the internal contradictions and pressures of Japanese life on the one hand, and the world of Christianity and Europe on the other.

Endo is another decent group in the burgeoning wave of modern rock bands that know how to write songs while drawing from a multitude of rock influences and incorporating some of music's more recent popular styles.
Rap metal is a dying genre and I doubt Endo were ever truly a rap metal band, but certainly have been more appropriately described as a nu-metal band - and even that doesn't do the band justice.
