Blurring the boundaries between idol culture, pop and metal with its sick-sweet ("yami-kawaii") aesthetic. Since their beginnings, Zenbu have Kimi no Sei there. with powerful live performances and a clear vision: feelings such as despair and fear are channeled and carried to the outside, in contrast to the typical sweet idol aesthetic. Formed in Tokyo, the group carve out a sound that blends black metal, hardcore, shoegaze, and noise with emotionally raw vocals and stark, confrontational visuals. Their live shows are intense, cathartic experiences-equal parts ritual and riot-earning them a devoted following among both alternative idol fans and metalheads. Unapologetically dark and fiercely expressive, ぜんぶきみのせいだ reject polished pop in favour of chaos, atmosphere, and feeling. For fans of extreme music, outsider art, and idols that push every boundary, this is a band that hits hard and leaves a mark: https://kiminosei.com/ https://x.com/zenbukiminosei?t=4aYHllyBKcE4ubtldc7zFA&s=09 https://youtu.be/jKxS2xnKjcw?si=eMgXKjQc8JCZ68CT https://youtu.be/547KaphpW24?si=_U9B8Ahy3DyEE55s https://youtu.be/5_R0I9A7CvQ?si=0RU-n8DGb6jQdnN5 **Re:O** Re:O delved into the underworld by infusing Dark techno and J-pop tones with high-energy, blood-pumping Alternative Metal and rock. Helmed in 2020 by singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Rio Suyama who grew up in Saitama, Japan, Re:O began with “Sorrow’s Silhouette (嘆きのシルエット)” and “GUILD” that was featured on BBC Radio 1 Alternative Future Show as her solo project after she experimented atmospheric Dream Pop, blending with DIY spirit Indie Pop under the name RIØ. Three years later, the project evolved with James Wright (bass), James 'J' Stevens (drums) joining Re:O in 2023 and Alex Carli (guitar) joining in 2025. After she relocated to Maidenhead, UK to pursue a heavier futuristic sound with hypnotic and exquisite vocals spoken in Japanese and English by drawing on their backgrounds, different music tastes and cultural roots. In 2024, they released their first single “Ronin” as a band that reached over 13,000 plays on Spotify alone and became a staple in Re:O's new direction. Ronin was critically acclaimed by webzines, blogs and fans. Along with Ronin, Re:O returned to live shows in August 2024 with a sold out show at The Spice of Life, Soho. “The Haunted” released in November 2024 and “Violets” in April 2025 were both featured on BBC Introducing Oxfordshire & Berkshire followed by “Ronin”. In August 2025, “Crimson Desire” became a standout track, featuring on over 30 music magazines and radio stations internationally including BBC Introducing Oxfordshire & Berkshire. While building a strong emotional bonds with fans by Re:O’s iconic heart touching songs, the band’s enthralling energetic live performance is their lifeblood. Re:O breaks down cultural and musical barriers between Japan and the West as they continue to forge their musical path in the global music scene.
