diSSUE Vol.3 「ブラックメタルの現在地」(ZINE) 入荷しました...。3LAも寄稿してます。

またやばいものが世の中に出てしまったなぁ…

去年2025年の文フリでただ近くの席に偶然なってしまったから…というわけではなく、あのイベントでは音楽のジャンルで書き物をしている集団が少なくて、そしてさらにエクストリームな人たちは更に少なかった。ということで、当然チェックせざるを得ない、diSSUE。しかし納品されたVol.3を見て驚愕してしまった。

「めちゃくちゃデカくなってねえか」

圧倒的にボリュームが増したVol.3を少し読んでみたけど、面白いです。
対談についても、心理的にオープンになっている内容になっていて、商業誌ではなかなか出来ないものになっている=つまり、こうした個人集団で発行する意味のあるZINEである。そして、数々の雑誌がその紙面の多くをインタビューに割く中で、しっかりとディスクレビューを掲載している。やっぱりディスクレビューを書かなければ、僕は信頼しない。内容はさておき、まずはディスクレビューを書くこと。そこが始まりとすら思っています。

個人的にはブラックメタルをたくさん聞いたのは2010年頃、2020年に入るころには聴いているのはほんとに一握りのバンドだけになりました。その主な理由は、ブラックメタルをDIGする理由が自分にとって無くなりかけていたから。随分前から世の中で上がってくるブラックメタルの多くが、オカルトや北欧神話のモチーフを使い回しすぎて飽き飽きしてしまったから。そして、対極から上がってくる新しいブラックメタルも、血の匂いのしない「ブラックメタル」という名の、別にブラックメタルを感じないヘヴィミュージックがほとんどのように感じてしまったから。

でもこれを読んで、いまのブラックメタルももう一度聴き直してみようという気持ちになりました。名だたる参加者達の文字の間に、私も混じってしまっていますが、いいんですかねーー。いいですよね。

Here are five Japanese bands you should be listening to now, released by the end of 2025 (2/2)

Crows Caw Loudly - “Crows Caw Loudly” (2x7inch)
六根 + FPCD - “SPLIT - holy fade” (CD)
六根 ROCCON - “結んでひらく - Tying and Opening” (CD+ZINE)
老人の仕事 - “三”(three) (CD)
老人の仕事 - “二(2nd)”(CD)

Crows Caw Loudly released a self-titled 7-inch double A-side under their band name, which had sold out but is now back in stock. The 12 tracks capture the raw, unsettling chaos of 90s hardcore. Whether it’s an anti-thesis to the increasingly polished modern “hardcore-style” bands or not, many listeners will find something resonant here. It possesses a visceral speed that transcends everything. This isn’t about BPM. It’s like feeling the overwhelming speed of a 120km/h ride on a 400cc bike, your flesh exposed to the elements, rather than the comfortable 250km/h of a bullet train. It’s the same thing.

And then there’s Rokkon ROCCON. Many international listeners might not know them, but they’ve toured the US and Mexico. The “Tying and Opening” release includes a zine diary from that tour. Their latest split with FPCD, released in 2025, is “SPLIT - holy fade”. A two-piece band with bass/vocals and drums, they lean grindcore but possess an overflowing emotional intensity that should resonate deeply with emo-violence listeners. They’re a band I absolutely want to share the stage with when Habak tours Japan.

We’ve also restocked Roujin-no-shigoto’s latest release “三” (three) and their previous work “二” (2nd). While they boast overwhelming sales figures among 3LA’s distro titles, their music isn’t available on streaming services, making it inaccessible to many. Upholding an anti-technology stance, they appear covered in shaggy hair, but they’re actually visitors from the future. Their purpose for coming from the future remains unclear, but surely it’s to change the present and thereby alter a hopeless future. That’s what I imagine. Their psychedelic and dub elements have intensified further, using the heaviness, slowness, and intoxicating sensation of doom metal and stoner rock to carry listeners far away. It’s drug-like, but they remain completely sober. More like smoke.

Here are five Japanese bands you should be listening to now, released by the end of 2025 (1/2)

sans visage - "drowned / resistance" (CD)
sans visage - "moments" (LP: Maroon)
Kiima Kariis - "魂の告白" (CD)
These titles have been restocked.

First, we're pleased to announce that sans visage has released new material. After several years of silence, they've returned following nuvolascura's Japan Tour, resumed activities, and released their latest EP. Kamiyama (Vo/Gt) was a die-hard Skramz fan who had been using 3LA since his high school days. After forming sans visage in 2015, they quickly gained prominence within the young scene of the time. They released an album via the band apart's Asian Gothic label, establishing themselves as a band possessing a certain pop sensibility or universality within this often underground scene. I worried their post-revival EP might have lost some of that original intensity, but it seems that was unnecessary concern. Their emotional core remains as genuine as ever.

I think many people still don't know the band Kiima Kariis, but you absolutely should listen to them. The sound engineer is Mr. Asakura from nostos studio, who produced quiqui's album. The band features razor-sharp, cutting guitar sounds, relentless drumming, and screaming vocals. What matters most isn't a vocal style that fits neatly into the chords or rhythm, but the collision of individual energies—the friction that makes you feel, “This sound absolutely needs to be a band!” If one person writes the songs and the others just play them, that's not a real band. It's the clash of personalities that makes it interesting.

While many visitors come from Oji Station on the JR Keihin-Tohoku Line, I'd like to share a coffee shop I recommend for those coming from Jujo Station on the JR Saikyo Line.
New Again Espresso's latte is highly recommended. Having recently been drinking lattes with stronger milk, this one felt refreshingly different.
The atmosphere was nice too. It has that Kita Ward vibe.

As 2025 ends, we prepare for 2026.
Otonashi Records is an independent shop in Tokyo, born in 2022. Today, I want to share a piece of our history.

In 2010, I started an online store from scratch to sell Emo and Screamo (before we called it "Skramz"). I named it "3LA"—short for LongLegsLongArms. Back then, I was deeply insecure about my long, thin limbs. I chose that name to turn a personal complex into something positive—a catalyst for my growth.
I had nothing then. I was in my late 20s, broke, and had little hope. I didn't even fully believe in the business, but I kept going while working part-time jobs. Slowly, through social media, a community began to form.

By 2013, 3LA became a label. We toured Japan with bands like Hexis and Downfall of Gaia, and worked with legends like City of Caterpillar and envy. I was also fortunate to support bands like moreru and Asunojokei in their early days. I’ve made many mistakes, but I’ve learned that the most precious things are earned through time and experience. Like fine wine, value grows with the years you invest.

In 2020, during the pandemic, I finally built the physical Otonashi Records. The name "Otonashi" (Silent) comes from the Otonashi River nearby. Since opening, we’ve welcomed visitors from the USA, Spain, Malaysia, China, and beyond. Real conversations in the shop are far more rewarding than any online interaction.

What I’ve learned is: It is never too late to start. Your background doesn't define your future. I never expected a vinyl boom or for Skramz to become so popular among the youth. I simply learned how powerful consistency can be.
If you love Emo and Skramz, please visit us in Tokyo. We are perhaps the only record store in the world specializing in Skramz.

Thank you for an incredible 2025. See you in 2026

Building Otonashi Records: A Handmade Haven in Tokyo 🔨✨
When I decided to open a record store, I chose a building with character. It’s incredibly narrow—perhaps the narrowest in Tokyo. But for a place dedicated to niche, underground music like SKRAMZ, this unconventional space felt like the perfect fit.
Our core philosophy is rooted in the PUNK/DIY spirit.
It’s about more than just music; it’s about creating, distributing, and building an organic community with our own hands. It’s a mindset of taking control of our own destiny. This independence is how we’ve remained true to ourselves all these years.
This is why I chose to build the store myself.
To be honest, saving costs was one reason. But more importantly, in an age where almost anything can be bought instantly, I wanted to cherish the "authenticity" that only comes through manual labor and sweat. I believe that things built by hand possess a life and soul that convenience simply cannot replicate.
The building’s structure is unique—narrow at the entrance and widening toward the back. Since the real estate maps were completely inaccurate, I had to measure every inch myself to create precise blueprints. There are people in every industry who settle for "good enough," right?
From those blueprints, I cut the timber, laid the flooring, and built the walls to display our vinyl. I even designed and assembled the record shelves myself, making them slimmer than usual to fit our narrow space.
I actually had terrible grades in arts and crafts back in elementary school. But after building countless shelves, I’ve found a rhythm and skill I never knew I had. (Maybe there's a second career in this? haha)
I even crafted the checkout counter from leftover wood. It’s my personal masterpiece—it looks professional, yet it carries the warmth of the struggle. DIYing this store gave me the confidence that I can always improve things with my own hands. It’s this unique atmosphere that gives Otonashi Records its heartbeat.
This is my store. A handmade sanctuary for music, built from the ground up.

SPOILMAN - “Live at Asukayama Park 2024” (2xCD: 2nd Press Purple)

A 2-CD set containing all 26 songs from SPOILMAN's free solo live concert held at Asukayama Park in Kita Ward, Tokyo in 2024. DIY specification

December 2024, one year after the free solo live show at the ward community center the previous year, this is a live CD featuring the complete recording of their first outdoor concert.

The jacket is hand-silkscreened, and the back and inside gatefold are also DIY, so please consider any slight printing smudges as part of its charm. Due to being hand-printed, production is limited to 100 copies. The photos inserted in the gatefold are different for each copy. The first pressing sold out quickly, so a second pressing was decided upon, using purple ink.

Kiima Kariis - “魂の告白” (CD)

We've received Kiima Kariis' 2025 album ‘Confession of the Soul’. Formed in Kyoto, they've now shifted their base of operations to Tokyo.

This album is incredible—it felt like discovering a truly great new band for the first time in ages! The main reasons I feel this way are that their creative vision isn't focused on revival, and you can sense a distinct band culture emerging within them. While their musical style is completely different, it makes perfect sense they shared the stage with moreru during their Kyoto tour—there's a fundamental connection there.

The band's performance has explosive power, and studio nostos captures and constructs this as a sonic image. Impulsive emotions are transformed into audible signals that convey their essence. There might be a synergy between the band and the studio, similar to what I felt with quiqui's album release.

Trust 3LA and give it a try. It comes in a paper sleeve with a solid lyric sheet. It's cool.



京都で結成、現在活動の軸を東京に移したKiima Kariisの2025年アルバム『魂の告白』を入荷しました。この作品は凄いです、久しぶりに新しい良いバンドに出会えたと思いました!僕がそう思う一番の理由は、クリエイティブの想いはリバイバルに向いていないこと、バンド内で独自カルチャーがありそうな匂いを感じられること。音楽性が全然違うけどmoreruのツアー京都編で共演しているのも納得、根底には通じるところがあります。バンドの演奏には爆発力があり、それを音像として録音と構築をしているのはstudio nostosで、衝動的なエモーションも音として聴ける・伝わる信号へ変換されており、quiquiのアルバムリリースにも感じたバンドとスタジオの相乗効果みたいなものがあるのかもしれない。3LAを信じて買ってみてください。紙ジャケで歌詞カードもしっかりついてる。かっこいいです。

tracklist:
1.Farewell Dawn
2.Reach for Control
3.冷たい追放
4.Desperado
5.Suoi Tien
6.Fate
7. We're both alone in downfall, the death chant echoes through the calm of the forest.(remixed by Rench Kee)
8.Here
