Tag: 🎵 ラウド系 (Loud Kei)

Nu Metal has been increasing in popularity worldwide, including in Japan. While お洒落系 (Osare Kei) and コテオサ系 (Koteosa Kei) still hold the title of having the most artists active in their respective genres, there has been a significant increase in artists and bands who desire a more Metal-type of sound in their works.
If you can categorize an artist or band under the Heavy Metal category, but with the androgynous and flamboyant visual aspect of ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei), you have the main ingredients required for a ラウド系 (Loud Kei) band!

RAZOR // Broken Society: SAMURAIソードMAN

雪 (Yuki) 6 October 2024 No Comments
“SAMURAIソードMAN” (Samurai Sword Man) is the 12th single in RAZOR’s ever-growing discography. Despite being released in June of 2023 the single touches on an interesting concept that might have been overshadowed entirely by how upbeat and flashy the title track and its music video are.

This review was intended to be written and published much closer to the release date of the single last year, but due to circumstances it kept getting pushed back. The single never left 雪 (Yuki)’s mind (or her playlist) however, so she’s finally talking about it in this review!

JILUKA // “K4RMA WORLD TOUR 2024” at Club Volta

雪 (Yuki) 5 July 2024 No Comments
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.
You can find the link to their page there in this post!
