Shimekoroshi is a pioneering avant-garde noise band that draws its inspiration from the powerful imagery of nature overtaking civilization, much like the banyan trees enveloping the ancient ruins of Angkor Wat. The band's unique soundscape is crafted by a female vocalist, a male percussionist, and a male guitarist who also plays various other instruments. Rooted in the experimental realms of 1970s progressive rock and free jazz, Shimekoroshi delivers a raw and immersive auditory experience that challenges traditional musical boundaries. Their name, which translates to "tightening to death," encapsulates the relentless and consuming force of nature, reflected in their intense and transformative performances.
