Y-xiz // A devil and a god on each end of the vertical axis

Y-xiz is a Stylish Hard Rock Band, existing out of vocalist yesk and guitarist You.. They are inspired by mythology, retro movies and theater, creating a sound that is rooted in hardrock - much like their description already suggests.

Their first single came out in February of 2023 and captivated us as soon as we saw it, but at that moment in time we chose to wait a little longer before asking them for an interview. And it's a good thing we did, because they had a lot of interesting answers to our questions! We can't wait to share their work with you today!

KAMIJO // Behind the Mask (3/3): OSCAR

Bonjour!
As you probably know by now, KAMIJO is preparing to tour Europe this June with his "The Anthem" tour, and for that reason we're doing a little promotion of our own. With our three-part "Behind the Mask" series we aim to give you a different view of KAMIJO's solo works by diving into his story of Louis XVII.
Since this story spans various releases, we've divided it into three parts. In this third and final part we'll cover the "OSCAR" album, which was released in 2022.

FORBIDDEN // “To us “FORBIDDEN” is the name of the future we’re aiming for.”

FORBIDDEN is the newest musical project of guitarist 凛 (Lin) and vocalist 鋲 (Byou), who you might recognize from projects like brodiaea, Lilith, Affective Synergy, SCREW, KHRYST+ and their solo careers.
FORBIDDEN officially launched in December of 2023, which means they're still a relatively new band, but their concept is very solid already. More than enough reason for us to ask the guys for some more information about FORBIDDEN!
