Japan's leading girls three-piece rock band, continuing active in the world, Toshimama, the legendary tour was decided for the first time in two years!
A tour of miracles around five cities throughout the country and one of Japan's best live bands that Tsushima loves and respects, "Tale Outlet" gathered from the three countries of the United States, South Korea, Austria.
Tsu Shi Ma Mi Re (つしまみれ, TSMMR) is an all-girl Japanese rock trio. Their style is eclectic punk rock, mixing noisy and pop instrumental sounds with idiosyncratic, quirky, often funny or disturbing lyrics. They are one of the many bands to have become famous in the United States through the Austin, Texas South by Southwest music festival, and also through their performances at anime conventions, with the Suicide Girls, and at Benten Label's "Japan Girls Nite" U.S. tours.
The band's original lineup consisted of Mari Kono on lead guitar and vocals, Yayoi Tsushima on bass, and Mizue Masuda on drums. They originally formed the band while in college in Chiba, Japan. In January 2017, Mizue announced she was leaving the band to pursue other projects. The band now performs with their new drummer, Maiko Takagi.
Tsushimamire is a neologism coined by the band, not a real Japanese word. It is a combination of Tsushima (the family name of bassist Yayoi) with "Ma" (from guitarist/vocalist Mari Kono) and "Mi" (from original drummer Mizue Masuda). In addition, mamire means "mixed up" in Japanese: thus the effect is that of "Tsushima (Yayoi), Mari and Mizue all mixed together."
Tsu Shi Ma Mi Re's musical style can be broadly classified as punk rock, with eclectic influences of noise and Japanese pop music. Several of their songs begin with strong bass lines by Yayoi, but Mari's guitar and Mizue's drums finally make equal contributions. Several songs combine sweet female vocal harmonies with hard drum playing and punk guitar riffs, for a deliberately ironic effect, for example in their signature tune, "Tea Time Ska". The lyrics are consistently quirky and idiosyncratic, with the most common themes being sex, food, and death, and sometimes all three at once. Underneath sweet vocal harmonies, the lyrics frequently hint at far darker, scarier themes.
Food is a noticeable subject in their lyrics. In the rap-rock title song from "no-miso shortcake (brain shortcake)", lead singer Mari invites the listener to eat her brain. In "Kamaboco (Fish Cakes)", all three girls play the roles of food ingredients in Japanese hotpot, with fish cakes (Mari) feeling rejected and lonely because she is never added to hotpot. In their very first single, "American Hamburger", an upbeat pop song, the singer describes herself as fat and food-loving but beautiful; the first line is, "I'm a pig so I eat pork."
Some of their most powerful songs address death and its inevitability. In "Na-mellow (Nameru)", the singer plays the role of the young daughter of a fisherman, who gradually realizes her father will never return from a fishing voyage. In "Manhole", the singer speculates about where manholes in the street might lead to, perhaps to the land of the dead.
Another common theme is sex, which is frequently juxtaposed against the squeaky-clean stereotype of the innocent-looking Japanese girl. In the title song from Pregnant Fantasy, the unborn baby of a pregnant teenager asks why her mother will bear her when she is not wanted. In "World Peace & BOU", the singer appears to be speculating that world peace can be brought about by a cartoon penis.
"Tea Time Ska", the song which often closes their live shows, features a unique mix of punk-rock screaming and sweet harmonies. It describes an innocent young girl who invites her first boyfriend home for tea. However, her father, "who loves me too much", becomes jealous of the boyfriend because his daughter has never made tea for him.
In interviews, the band members have stated that their original inspiration was to be a female version of the Japanese band Blankey Jet City, whose rock music is very fast, energetic, and full of rapid changes. They also consider Rage Against the Machine to be an influence. Yayoi has also expressed a fondness for Western classical music.
In 2007 they were voted "Best All-Girl Group" in Shojo Beat magazine's Reader's Poll, with 73.4% of the vote.
Function Error is a psychedelic punk rock band come from Seoul, South Korea. They have four members including Guitar (Kook-kook),Vocal (Min-Jung) ,Drums (No-ja) and Bass (Seung-Hyun). Ego Function Error: It means "Crazy person" simply.
They stand up for the wrong in society like sexual discrimination or stereotypes. But instead of punk rock's typical 3-chord play, they chose the psychedelic way to spread their word.
Gaining various musical references over time, their music will include elements from other genres. They are trying to light up the bottom of people's hearts with their music.
Everything about Ego Function Error feels like a deliberate decision. Their songs can go from sounding like improvisations to highly crafted and polished tracks that every single note and beat was worked with the same amount of effort. It lets Ego Function Error be Ego Function Error, a talented band that makes interesting and fun songs that you can easily dance to.
We Are The Asteroid is a Freak Rock band , they come from Texas. Nathan plays bass and sings in WE Are The Asteroid ( WATA), Frank plays drums, and Gary plays guitar and sings.
Their musical influences include the sound of a thousand frogs screaming. They consider themselves to be loud and crazy.
They hope to play for as many people as possible, to share our music and attitudes with everyone. It will be fun to meet and play with everyone, and share ideas, music and culture. They believe they are very lucky to live in a time when this is possible. Music is a common language for all of us, as well as the joys and challenges of being traveling musicians .
KIDS N CATS is a music band from Austria with four members Jeanne Drach, Marten Kaffke, Maximilian Atteneder, Judith Filimónova .
Kids n Cats pretty much appeared out of the blue when their first single, “Tip Tip”, and its accompanying music video, directed by artist Daliah Spiegel, were released in 2014. Since then, they have taken the world by storm.
Kids n Cats are the synthesis of what pop should be: crazy, loud, eccentric and thought-provoking. They are loud, wild, chaotic and wonderful. Their eccentric videos full of internet absurdities, critical takes on gender norms and overall randomness soon grabbed the attention of international outlets like Papermag, which have given their popularity another push. But the real artistry in all of the craziness is that, throughout the past four years, their sound has stayed unmistakably coherent and inherently recognizable.
There is no schedule or ticket right now.
