E-TYP-->PRIDE OF MIND-->VELVET EDENdada "biography""In 1992 Dada number 272 was sent to earth in place of Dada 271, who had been defeated. In 1995 he was forced to make an emergency landing in Tokyo, and lost all memory of his life on the Dada planet upon impact. After that he lived on as an earthling, dabbling in different fields as an artist, garage kit producer, vocalist for bands, drag queen, writer, club hostess, costume designer, and poster girl. However, he has completely forgotten his mission and how he came to end up on earth. Recently he's received letters asking if it isn't painful living here, but, no, if he's even reading your letters he can't find it painful. Today the first winds of spring tried to blow off his false eyelashes, and in its force he couldn't blink and was tearful though. So everyone please continue to write."wrote lyrics 4 ve based on stories he made
said he's "seen a lot of those things in [his] dreams"

useless info, some facts i found funny n stuffmembers of velvet eden used to dress up as strawberry switchblade (kalm era)
used to cover their songs + other artists, actually started out as a cover band but "thought it would go a lot faster if we just made our own songs"kalm/dada og lineup era considered "golden age"
"they (as a team) stopped while they were ahead, which is in my opinion, why the Kalm era is so well received"kalm dressed up as lurch from the addams family for halloween (2022)

in an interview when dada was in e-typ (1996 ??) he said the thing he can't live without besides food is cats :3this picture
also apparently dada had a beard 4 some time
