Is there a Psychedelic Rock Band playing in Tokyo on 1/28/25 or 1/29/25

Hey psychonauts, I will be in Tokyo with my father on 1/28 and 1/29, before we head to Hokkaido on the 30th to snowboard. We both love psychedelic rock and would love to catch a show while we are in Tokyo. Does anyone have any recommendations? I am so overwhelmed with info and having a hard time finding anything. Thank you!!!

Are underage people allowed to go to bar venues?

I (20) am going on a family trip to Tokyo and would like to go to a few punk / hardcore shows while I am there with my little brother (17), are the shows at bars age restricted? I am not really knowledgeable about the scene in Japan.

Hi, I’m looking for Japanese jungle/breakcore producers for a compilation dedicated to the "Amen Break

Hi, my name is Filippo, I’m from Bologna, Italy.
I run (together with some friends) a label called Girovelle Psicotroniche: https://girovellepsicotronicherecords.bandcamp.com/.

I’m currently looking for Japanese jungle/breakcore producers for a compilation dedicated to the "Amen Break," which I hope to release (on vinyl, if possible) next year around April.

The most beautiful Japanese albums?

I'm not looking for any specific genre, although something post-rock would be nice. But you can recommend anything as long as you consider it a beautiful album.

Looking forward to your suggestions!
