TsuShiMaMiRe - Topic

TsuShiMaMiRe are a legendary Japanese rock trio formed in 1999 featuring Mari (vocals,

guitar), Yayoi (bass, bv), and Asami (drums, bv).

These girls never cease to win over the hearts of their audiences with each passing show,

spreading intense emotions and raw energy via thousands of live performances, 16 US and 7

European tours, and 20 full-length album releases. Their music has been featured on TV,

film, animation, and video games.

TsuShiMaMiReʼs musical style ranges from hardcore noise to introspective indie rock, with

traces of heavy funk disco and pop sentimentality. Mariʼs quirky lyrics question social

conventions and the anxieties of everyday life, rebellion, and love. Her vocals excel in melodic

expressivity, ranging from child-like wonder to tragic despair. Yayoiʼs groove is like that of a

vengeful banshee in the throes of passion, suddenly pivoting from the stoic determination of

a samurai in battle to the elegance and light-heartedness of a Japanese house cat. Meanwhile

drummer Asami locks down a constant punk backdrop, rallying the front pair but keeping

them from toppling over the edge into insanity.

The ferocity of these three warrior princesses

culminates in a live show that is simultaneously upliftingly theatrical and brutally honest.

TsuShiMaMiRe will be loved by heavy rock fans and all lovers of Japanese indie subculture!

Donʼt miss the chance to see them, it may change your life.
