Masatoshi Mashima (guitarist)
Sakito Shirabe (bass player)

Incidentally, Kohmoto and Mashima used to be The Blue Hearts members. They have made a lot of great songs such as "Nichiyoubi-yori-no-shisha" (lit.a messager from Sunday), "Thunder Road," and "Sennen Medal" (lit.a medal of 1000 years). In August 2006, Kohmoto and Mashima announced that they are forming a new band, The Cro-Magnons. One single and accompanying music video have so far been released.
