The most dangerous band in Japan finally exposed — if you survive the hour.
On September 11, 2018, the movie "Retsunami Kakuon Gunrushi 911” - a collection of unreleased footage of G.I.S.M. - screened for just one day at Tachikawa Cinema City, Tokyo, selling out over 700 seats in hours. Released physically on September 11, 2024 worldwide, the film is a one-hour piece of shocking footage carefully selected from the band’s legendary visual archive, shot and directed by Junji Yasuda.

G.I.S.M. stands for 'Guerilla Incendiary Sabotage Mutineer' — Sakevi invented multiple backronyms because he found the original boring.
Randy Uchida's guitar tone was achieved through physically damaged equipment he refused to repair, considering the chaos part of the sound.
