SATANIC PARTYSun, Oct 26, Tokyo Met.
This is a spin-off event of SATANIC CARNIVAL, hosted by PIZZA OF DEATH led by Ken Yokoyama, the guitarist of the legendary three-piece punk band Hi-STANDARD. With talented young bands and up-and-coming artists set to perform, the energy at the venue is expected to rival that of SATANIC CARNIVAL. It’s highly recommended for anyone who wants to get lost in music while cheering on the future of bands poised to break out from here!

Mounted Samurai Rock FestivalSat, Oct 25 – Fukushima Prefecture
The Horseback Warrior Rock Festival is held every year in Minamisoma City, Fukushima Prefecture. It began with the hope of creating a new festival so that people who left the city due to the earthquake disaster and the nuclear accident—those who evacuated—could return home at least once a year. I’ve heard there’s also a fireworks display on the day, making it feel just like a summer festival.
