Masakari

Hailing from Cleveland, OH, Masakari draws inspiration from Japanese warrior monks and crustcore/D-beat influences like Discharge and His Hero Is Gone. Since 2006, they've honed their sound, blending elements of hardcore punk with a nod to Japanese hardcore. Their debut album, "The Prophet Feeds," released in 2010 by Southern Lord, garnered critical acclaim, marking their ascent from the underground. With a fierce and relentless approach, Masakari continues to make waves in the punk scene, staying true to their roots while pushing boundaries in their genre.
