Zankyo Matsuri 7th Anniversary

Proggy post-hardcore band 9mm Parabellum Bullet are one of the star attractions at this two-venue festival of inventive guitar antics. Also look out for Te', whose oh-so-Mogwai post rock feels a lot more essential now that Mogwai have lost their mojo, and Cogendshe (or COgeNdshE, as they insist on writing it), a new band that layer female vocals over fiddly math-rock, to tasty effect. Norwegian prog-alt-post-rock group 22 fill the obligatory obscure foreign guest band slot. See below for full lineup.
