SPIRAL CHORD suspend activities by intention of member.
We will also all cancel show that has been decided along with this. We are very sorry.
Thank you so much for everyone's sincere and big support,and please get understanding our decision.
Formed in 2003 by Gendo(VOCAL & GUITAR/ex-COWPERS) and Hera(DRUMS/200 MPH,
ex-BEYONDS, ex-NAILS OF HAWAIIAN). The original Bass player left the band at
the early stage, so Kentaro(ex-NUMBER GIRL) was recruited in 2004. And this
trio stays together to this day.
The ultimate driving rhythm section pushes Gendo's ferocious guitar sound
woven from dissonance chords and his well arranged pedal works. And with
Gendo's shredding voice and as well distorted lyrics, which isn't afraid to
reflect human nature's fate or fanatical ego, you get this fierce Japanese
Punk slab called SPIRAL CHORD.
These 3 guys, started from Punk and devoted themselves deeply into the
immense 90's Indies/Grunge/Emo/Post Core evolution through their former
bands, have returned to their Punk roots with all sounds, melodies and
pulses.
If you like THE DAMNED, DRIVE LIKE JEHU/HOT SNAKES, or great Japanese acts
like STALIN, FRICTION, INU, you can't go wrong!
