I’ve been listening to this band a lot lately, but I can find hardly any info on the web and their CDs are impossible to track down, despite my best efforts.
GISM are some cult Japanese hardcore band with a strong metal influence. I have read a few stories about the band’s concerts on the web, apparently the lead singer is completely nuts and attacks the audience at his shows with tear gas, chainsaws, pellet guns and blowtorches, and has spent a great deal of his life in an insane asylum. Usually crazy antics like his are just an excuse to make up for bad music (see GG Allin and Anal Cunt), but I decided to check them out.
Anyway, I downloaded a few tracks, not expecting much. However, I was really impressed with the songs I was able to find. The vocals and guitar work are great, etc etc.
So, are there any fans?
