Dead End in the good old days

After 20 years these Visual Kei pioneers will get together for a show on August 15th.

From their news release:

“20 years later, the calm after the storm shakes us with Dead End’s return in 2009.

Dead End’s performance influenced many musicians and fascinated listeners alike. The band set a standard of technical excellence and left behind a new attitude and aesthetics for Japanese rock music. A leader in the Visual kei movement, Dead End returns and with its combustion, shakes and leads us somewhere unknown.”

August 15, 2009: Live at Makuhari Messe for Jack in the Box Summer 2009.
