Album Description or Backstory
“Wont” explores themes of rebellion, personal freedom, and social critique, challenging societal norms and advocating for self-expression.
The band is known for their energetic live shows, engaging audiences with call-and-response chants, mosh pits, and dramatic stage presence, incorporating traditional Japanese theater makeup and costumes with a punk aesthetic.
The album and band exist in an alternate timeline where their unique blend of music becomes a cultural phenomenon, influencing both the punk scene and traditional music circles, acting as pioneers of a new cultural movement.
Their visual branding combines punk iconography (spikes, leather, anarchic symbols) with traditional Japanese imagery (cherry blossoms, waves, samurai motifs), creating a distinctive style that encapsulates their musical and cultural identity.
