Event information

Rammel Club proudly presents...

► MESA OF THE LOST WOMEN (FR) featuring JUNKO (JP - HIJOKAIDAN)

*Finally!* Japanese noise screamo queen JUNKO has always been high on the Rammel wishlist and after numerous failed attempts we managed to bring her to Nottingham with MESA OF THE LOST WOMEN from France. This is the first UK tour of this trio and the only gig in the UK outside London, wahey! :-)

JUNKO's legendary status dates back to the ear shredding performances with improv-noise group HIJOKAIDAN and over the years she recorded with Kylie Minoise, Sachiko, Sutcliffe Jugend, Masayoshi Urabe, Michel Henritzi and somehow she hasn't lost her voice ...

MESA OF THE LOST WOMEN is the free-core duet of Yves Botz (DUSTBREEDERS) on noise guitar and Christophe Sorro on free drumming.
From 2004, in successive spiritual unities with Masayoshi Urabe, Jac Berrocal, Cathy Heyden or our favorite scream-queen JUNKO (from legendary Japanese noise-unit Hijokaidan), we never stop to "remember how free we were" ...
