Zi:Kill was a Japanese visual kei band which formed in 1987. The members were Tusk (vocals), Seichi (bass), Ken (guitar), Eby (drums). (This is the final formation when they disbanded.) They were featured in a chapter of Karl Taro Greenfeld's novel, Speed Tribes. The chapter documents the writer's time spent with the band, and the events that nearly caused their break up.
