KOREKYOJINN: How about these guys?

[Spoombung]

Ooof! Bonkers, polyrhythmic rock...

They're playing in Cafe Oto 3rd Oct. I'm going to try and get down there and see 'em

[merlin]

sorry way to off the wall for me,but best leave this style to the guys who understand it,

[4 Strings]

Of the four words used in the OP I think Bonkers was the most apt!

Love it, great to see 'traditional' instruments, sounds like an Entwistle P played by Squire on speed! Where do you start to make that sort of stuff up? (With so much difficult harmony going on the ringy snare got a bit irritating.)

I'm off to find some more, thanks.

oo, just to add, I don't understand it!

Cool.

[steve-bbb]

plenty of yin and not much yang

one section of polyrhythmic cacophony going into another and then another just doesnt really take me anywhere - the first section up to 1:40 ish was listenable and getting there but then it sort of disintegrated completely before coming back into some sort of disordered order

[risingson]

Are they available for weddings?

I think my brain just exploded...

But that's the art isn't it?

OP clip = outstanding!

If I wasn't able to see the musicians, though, it would have been hard work.

Cool stuff, if lacking in certain areas. They do can plays tho'.

Had only heard of their name before, but they're close family to Ruins and Koenjihyakkei (incorrectly a.k.a. Koenji Hyakkei).

For their soft side, here's some seventies easy listening (I had no idea they do that as well), relatively speaking:

Sounds like latter-era King Crimson with an Open University degree in musical obtuseness. Highly commendable.
