ABOUT CROSSFAITH:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

“Playing heavy music is how I feel alive,”\u00a0says singer Kenta Koie. “We want Crossfaith to be the band making music that no one has ever heard before.\u00a0Crossfaith formed in 2006 and released their debut album\u00a0<\/span><\/b>The Artificial Theory for The Dramatic Beauty<\/span><\/i>\u00a0in 2009, followed by\u00a0<\/span>The Dream, The Space\u00a0<\/span><\/i>(2011),\u00a0<\/span>Apocalyze<\/span><\/i>\u00a0(2013),\u00a0<\/span>Xeno<\/span><\/i>\u00a0(2015), and\u00a0<\/span>Ex Machina<\/span><\/i>\u00a0(2018). Each one saw the band blend its\u00a0love of punk rock, metal, and electronic music in daring new ways. “Good art is how I express myself to other people. It’s hard to talk from the bottom of my heart, that’s why I write these songs,” Koie says.\u00a0In keeping with their progressive musical journey,\u00a02020’s\u00a0<\/span>SPECIES<\/span><\/i><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/b>EP<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/b>saw the band continue to push their own sonic soundscape\u00a0to new grounds.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When Koie\u00a0was younger, he was drawn to heavy music because it was unlike anything he’d ever heard before. “I heard Slipknot’s ‘People=Shit’\u00a0and it changed my life. I didn’t know I had this anger inside me and it was the most inspirational moment for me. I wanted to be the one blowing minds.”\u00a0At 12\u00a0years old, he had one big question that he wanted to answer. He grew up listening to Western music and could find it easily in all Japanese record stores, but he knew not many people listened to Japanese music in the west. He wanted to change that. “I\u00a0had a dream to play my music outside of Japan,” Koie shares.\u00a0“I wanted to be the Japanese band that was listened to by people all across the world. That dream came true but we’re not done yet.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“You need bands who are leaders,” the singer\u00a0says.\u00a0“Especially in rock music. We focus on making new things and making new movement. That’s our role. We don’t want to be getting old. It’s so sad when you see your heroes starting to sound old, so we brush ourselves off everyday and always try to find a new way to make music. Exploring is very important.”<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
