During his “Because It’s Love” European tour HITT stopped at P60 in Amstelveen on February 18 to play his show for the fans who had been waiting outside for most of the afternoon already.

We also went to check out their performance, and took some photos while we were there. You can find these photos

HITT // “I wanted everyone to aim their eyes at me since I was born.”

雪 (Yuki) 18 February 2011 No Comments 🌸 HITT 🎵 ピコピコ系 (Piko-Piko Kei)🎶 digital

HITT is a multi-instrumentalist solo artist, who basically is a one-man-band because of that talent. Despite starting his career as a bassist, HITT now takes the stage with a multitude of instruments, as well as his own voice. His cheerful, high energy personality surely makes for an entertaining stage presence.

Before his show in P60 in Amstelveen I sat down with HITT to ask him some questions about the European tour, but also about himself as a musician. Because it's not every day that you hear someone say they're a multi-instrumentalist...

the fool // Three crazy frogs on a roadtrip around the world

雪 (Yuki) 2 December 2010 No Comments 🌸 the fool 🎶 digital 🎶 rock

It has been a mere 4 months since the fool last came to Europe, since last August they were on the stage in Utrecht and Bonn together with Luzmelt.

Our first interview with Gunji from the fool included vocalist yuhma from Luzmelt due to time constraints, and some questions from that list had to be cut on the spot.
Unfortunately I can't redeem myself with yuhma at this point in time, but I can with Gunji and the rest of the fool!
So let's go!

Yuhma & Gunji // Combining two entirely different worlds in one interview

雪 (Yuki) 1 August 2010 No Comments 🌸 Luzmelt 🌸 the fool 🎵 キラキラ系 (Kirakira Kei)🎶 digital 🎶 rock

Luzmelt and the fool are currently doing a few shows together in Europe for the "Jap-Ro Festival", organized by Astan Magazin.
The festival only consists of two shows, one in Bonn (Germany) and the other in Utrecht (The Netherlands).

We took the opportunity to have a chat with both vocalists, and even though the intention was to have two separate interviews, due to time constraints we were forced to have a chat with the three of us at the same table.
yuhma and Gunji didn't mind, so why should we?

Z CLEAR // サイン (Sain): I’d rather love than be loved

雪 (Yuki) 2 November 2025 No Comments

After the release of their single “広島” (Hiroshima) in late December of 2024, Z CLEAR have released not one, but two new singles: “ぶちROCK” (Buchi ROCK) in April and “サイン” (Sain) in July. That last one is a one-track digital single, but does come with a music video.

“広島” (Hiroshima) already had a strong power of attraction, but this new single is definitely a sign that the group is on to something! It’s power attracted 雪 (Yuki) once more, so she took a closer look at the single and accompanying MV, and is ready to tell you all about it in this review.

OPHELIA // Proof that I am alive here and now

雪 (Yuki) 24 October 2025 No Comments

OPHELIA is a brand new visual metal band based in Tokyo, Japan. And even though the band only has one official member, there are quite a few interesting aspects with this project.

More than enough reason for 雪 (Yuki) to ask vocalist 煉華 (Renka) for an interview to learn more about his band, inspirations and of course the very first single “薄明” (Hakumei)!

NETH PRIERE CAIN // 神の啓示、月光の聖女 (Kami no Keiji, Gekkou no Seijo): Why am I crying, without any light?

雪 (Yuki) 28 September 2025 No Comments

NETH PRIERE CAIN’s single “神の啓示、月光の聖女” (Kami no Keiji, Gekkou no Seijo) may have been released in February of this year already, but the single tells an interesting story of contrast that we do want to share with you.

For that reason 雪 (Yuki) took a closer look at the single and the music video for “オルレアンの少女～la Pucelle d'Orleans～”, and she’s now ready to tell you all about them in this review!

Following the online success of their first single and music video for "Breed", SLEIPNIR played their very first live show in TIGHT ROPE 名古屋 (Nagoya). But, if you didn't see their online presence until now, you're probably wondering: "Who are they?"

We asked the group for a chat to talk about their band, music and of course how they see their future. Are you ready to meet SLEIPNIR?
