Dehumanizing Itatrain Worship (JP), Human Instrumentality Project, VANTA
Core music with an anime bent - this trio of metal acts tonight at Yuyintang Park for ambitious listeners looking to get off the beaten path. Dehumanizing Itatrain Worship - known as the anime slam kings - are slamming brutal death metal band from China. With a name that comes from the fascination of Itatrains (a Japanese term for trains with comic paintings on them) and music is heavily inspired by death metal and the anime "Love Live" - you’ve never heard lightening-fast drumming and pig squeal-infested vocals quite like this. Meanwhile, anime-inspired deathcore act Human Instrumentality Project, out of Guangzhou, base their brutal sound on the classic Japanese animation "Neon Genesis Evangelion,” digging into the psychology and mindset of the children chosen to pilot the giant EVAs in a ‘world that is distorted, morbid and full of mental pollution’. Rounding out the night are Jiaxing core outfit VANTA.
