Tak Matsumoto Group

Tak Matsumoto Group (often abbreviated as TMG) is a supergroup consisting of members from several bands around the world. It includes Tak Matsumoto, Eric Martin, and Jack Blades. From July to September 2004, they embarked on their "Dodge the Bullet Tour" of Japan.

After a single, an album, 20 shows, and a live video, the band did not perform again until twenty years later in 2024. In a 2016 interview with Rolling Stone India, Martin said he asked Matsumoto every year about a possible reunion, to which Matsumoto always answered, "Let me think about it".

On February 28, 2024, in an interview with Rockpages.gr, Jack Blades revealed that the band would be making a second album. A week later, on March 8, the band officially announced its reformation 20 years after its initial conception and would be releasing a second album and hold a nationwide tour across Japan.
