This documentary about Japanese punk rock band Teengenerate will be playing for one week only at Shibuya Humax Cinema with English subtitles. In classic punk style, the band was only active for three years between 1993 and 1996, yet they produced more than 70 songs and performed 80 shows per year both domestically and internationally. Their often incomprehensible English lyrics combined with quirky humor and raw heavy-playing style to charm audiences worldwide, and they gained a large following that still exists today. Find out more about what happened behind the scenes and how they changed the Japanese music scene forever. Being released in celebration of the band’s 20th anniversary, the film is a must-see for any J-rock enthusiast.
