Info
NIPPON REBELGRIND STORM!!! We all love Japan and its extreme music scene, and this band has been on OEF’s radar for a really long time. And finally, it’s happened. A grindcore bullet, 324, is heading to Obscene Extreme!!! We don’t need to explain anything to die-hard grindcore fans, but for everyone else: 324 was formed in 1997 and is now one of the most important Japanese grindcore acts - though we don’t get many chances to see them in Europe!!! Nevertheless, this quartet is very active on the live playing and has played countless shows alongside heavyweights of the extreme scene like Napalm Death, Nasum, or Corrupted.
324 isn’t just about blast beats, it’s also about incredibly catchy riffs and occasional slowdowns into sludge territory, all delivered with 100% intensity, as is typical of bands from the Land of the Rising Sun. “Rebelgrind” - that’s how they describe themselves!!! There’s no better label!!!
