Imagine burning things down and making a blog about it…
Hirata had referred to herself as “Kuma Eri,” due to her resemblance to the celebrity Yoko Kumada, and had aspired to become an idol. On her blog, she posted photographs of the buildings she had set fire to, and wrote comments on the fires, the court [...]
[Club Goth - DJ] Possibly the last of the late additions to April events… Inferno is a hot monthly event of Sunday-evening Goth with Khimaira and friends.
2,000 yen gets you entry, two drinks and a special mix CD.
Gothic, death rock, positive punk, dark wave, dark electro, technoiz and more.
Club Inferno (info) @ Bar Shifty [...]
[International Industrial] I overlooked the first two recommendations for this event, but after getting a third one I decided I better damned well add it! It looks to be an extravaganza of the forefathers of industrial music with such acts as Peter Christopherson (of COIL), COH, Robert Goerl(of ex.DAF) and esplendor geometrico(from Spain). Full details [...]
After a six-month hiatus, Awi and the crew are coming back to drill some more corpse-grinding speed metal on stage! I am not going to mince words here, I really loved (and still do on occasion) Agent Murder’s 2006 release, Earth of Hypocrisy, a brutal, vibrant, well-balanced black metal assault on the ears that just [...]
[Mental EBM nite] Thanks to Maya at Midnight Mess (info) for the heads-up on this event. The first event, Front 306 had Kohki of Destruct System amongst the DJ list, but this time features DJ Neu! from Neurotic Doll (info). Wait, wait, wait… There’s more.
Other DJ’s include Chisato from Soul Source and Shige from [...]
[Alt-rock etc.] Gadget. are back into live action again with another show @ Orgasm. It looks like the guys have gotten a new axman, Junpe (AKA Red Show). Gadget. have a sexy retro-funked out rock style going on and have done a number of Tokyo Dark Castle events. Definitely a band worth checking out.
Orgasm @ [...]
Tokyo Perve, Tokyo Decadance and Alamode Night all rolled together in one night. Lots of live stuff including Lloy, Aural Vampire, Despair. Lots of shows including

Fancy some insanity? You cannot go past a dose of Switch Bladerz’ psychobilly! I saw these guys in Tokyo and they are one wild gamboling ride of an act to see. They will be pulling an all-nighter with nine other bands and a triplet of DJ’s at the King Cobra’s No Money Night - well [...]

Twisted Clock (ex. Calmando Qual) are back from Europe and have a good-looking night set up with The Sound Bee HD, dibs and others. Should be a fun night for alternative indy rock, from Gothy to grungy. Cool.
Twisted Clock @ Chop
Open: 18:00 :: Start: 18:30
Live: Twisted Clock - ex. Calmando Qual, The Sound Bee HD, [...]

A quick announcement for Harshrealm, a harsh electronicka unit in Fukuoka. The band has impressed me with the quality and scope of the sound (nice and clean to nice and gritty). Anyway… I don’t know about the other bands, but for Fukuokans, any Harshrealm gig is worth checking out.
