Visual Kei alternative rock artist Riku (戮), active within Japan’s dark and theatrical scene, unveils the MV for “xx芝居,”/ xx Play, a title that literally evokes a staged “play” or dramatic act. The track leans into expressive vocal phrasing and moody instrumentation, echoing the genre’s obsession with identity, masks, and performance layers. The visual presentation reinforces that dramaturgical core, blurring fiction and self in classic VK fashion.
Welcome to our little corner of the internet where Japanese rock, hard rock, metal, punk, Visual Kei, and alternative idol chaos collide! This site is a passionate hobby project—currently rising from the ashes of a digital disaster of Megadeth proportions (yep, we lost data on 700 bands to a rogue black hole… RIP).
The site is now fully up and running again. New Music and New Videos are live. An updated radio show calendar is in progress, along with the news section. A webshop featuring a wide range of exclusive T-shirts is on the way. Band information will be added continuously as time allows.
Stick with us—follow on Facebook, X (formerly known as Twitter), and YouTube—and ride the sonic wave with us! 🤘
