Expect the unexpected from the extraordinary quartet Kansai-based, JOCKO! Formed in the summer of 2021, influenced by Post-Punk, Alt-Rock, and Hardcore, JOCKO created their 1st album with a unique character, naive, sketchy, but yet still rockin'! Bringing Minami Yokoto as the lead Vocal (also known as OOPS Voc), Fuji Chida (ex-Free City Noise) on Guitar, Hudson on Bass (ex-Freedom), and Rika on Drum! gives a sharp shape to the JOCKO sound. Every track has a bizarre and eccentric feel that can make you feel like you are dancing in a multicolor hollow!
Coming from different sound styles and bands, each member of JOCKO generates a piece of elegant and aggressive music. It's like combining the neat power of Savages, the cloudy sound of Flowers, and the disordered energy of Warsaw. Federation of Infinite gloomy!
