Sable Hills // “For us it’s the beginning of the odyssey.”
Sable Hills is a five-member metalcore band based in Tokyo, which formed straight out of high school in 2015. The band released their first EP “RESURRECTION” in early 2016, following with the full album “EMBERS” in 2019 and “DUALITY” in 2022 – which also gave the group international recognition.
In this interview 雪 (Yuki) speaks with vocalist Takuya and guitarist Rict about their growth as musicians and their new found fame in Europe, but of course we can’t forget their new album "Odyssey" and their very own FRONTLINE FESTIVAL either!

JILUKA // “K4RMA WORLD TOUR 2024” at Club Volta
JILUKA came to Europe as part of their "K4RMA WORLD TOUR 2024", and the third stop in Europe was Club Volta, a small venue in Cologne, Germany.
Despite the smaller venue, the turnout for the band was nothing short of impressive, existing out of fans of many different nationalities who came to see the band perform that night.
Of course we were there too, and we took some photos of their live show. These photos are hosted on our photography portfolio Arlequin Photography.

Y-xiz // A devil and a god on each end of the vertical axis
Y-xiz is a Stylish Hard Rock Band, existing out of vocalist yesk and guitarist You.. They are inspired by mythology, retro movies and theater, creating a sound that is rooted in hardrock - much like their description already suggests.
Their first single came out in February of 2023 and captivated us as soon as we saw it, but at that moment in time we chose to wait a little longer before asking them for an interview. And it's a good thing we did, because they had a lot of interesting answers to our questions! We can't wait to share their work with you today!

Bonjour!
As you probably know by now, KAMIJO is preparing to tour Europe this June with his "The Anthem" tour, and for that reason we're doing a little promotion of our own. With our three-part "Behind the Mask" series we aim to give you a different view of KAMIJO's solo works by diving into his story of Louis XVII.
Since this story spans various releases, we've divided it into three parts. In this third and final part we'll cover the "OSCAR" album, which was released in 2022.

FORBIDDEN // “To us “FORBIDDEN” is the name of the future we’re aiming for.”
FORBIDDEN is the newest musical project of guitarist 凛 (Lin) and vocalist 鋲 (Byou), who you might recognize from projects like brodiaea, Lilith, Affective Synergy, SCREW, KHRYST+ and their solo careers.
FORBIDDEN officially launched in December of 2023, which means they're still a relatively new band, but their concept is very solid already. More than enough reason for us to ask the guys for some more information about FORBIDDEN!
