Festival de la Bâtie – Fushitsusha 不失者

Booking Required

Led since the late 1970s by the unclassifiable Keiji Haino, Fushitsusha is a trio that obliterates the boundary between rock, psychedelia, improvisation and noise. Their concerts are seismic ritual: guitars rumble, bass carves the ground and drums hurl the music into unpredictable motion, shifting between electric trance and controlled chaos. Over decades they have forged a radical, physical sound where tension builds until it swallows the space, offering an intense, immersive encounter with underground Japanese experimental music.
