Africaemo - Squatter
Country: JapanLabel: Zankyo Records
Released: March 2010
Genre: Post-Rock / Electronica
Details:
Africaemo was formed in 2007 between 5 college alumni. Since their inception they have performed numerous amounts of shows, including FUJI ROCK’s “ROOKIE A GO-GO” which they have managed to perform within a year of their first public performance, gaining the band a lot of attention from critics across Japan. Their sound consists of organic dance grooves featuring elements of post-rock, hardcore, and synchronizing influences from the forefront of Japanese underground hip-hop through Kishi’s short attention spanned bombastic, breakneck lyrics. Members Abe and Imanaka are also known by their DJ outfit “Body Fantasies” and started an all night rave in 2009 called “TOUCH PARTY”, inviting popular DJ’s and bands. This simply highlights the fact that these guys aren’t just another party band, and without a doubt, Africaemo is bound to set the new frontier to a genuinely new sound, connecting the missing links between the subcategorized contemporary music scenes.
HIGHLY recommended for fans of the telephones, Sakanaction, 80kiz, and Kitsune Music!
