About Me

-BIOGRAPHY-
Despair was formed in October 2001 -Tokyo / Japan-

 2001.12.22 Starting Name was "Der Gestaltkreis"

 2002.04.27 Renamed to "Despair"
"Despair" なる名称は "S.P.K.-Sozialistische Patienten Kollektive-" からの引用の意を有すると共に、
その起点 である1960年代後期から70年代初頭にかけて旧 西ドイツ・ハイデルベルグ大学医学部
付属 病院の精神神経科を中心に活動していた 政治組織"社会主義患者集団(S.P.K.)" の活動への
オマージュを併有する。
高度成長期の渦中、先進資本主義各国での大 学闘争の一環として旧来の抑圧的な医療体制 を批判し、
大学病院の自己改革を推進する ために生まれた反精神医学を目的としたその 活動は、
Despairã‚’å½¢æˆã™ã‚‹ã‚ã‚‰ã‚†ã‚‹ç†å¿µã¨ç· Šå¯†ãªçµæŸæ€§ã‚’有するものである。

Sounds Like: -REBEL ACTION and CONCEPTS-

Quickly Rising to Prominence in the Japanese Underground Scene thanks to an Uncompromisingly Aggressive Sound and Dynamic Stage Presence.
Guitar, Bass and Drums -The Traditional Tools of a Rock Band- Have Been Abandoned in Favour of a Totally Technological Approach.
All Original and Found Sounds are Mangled and Reprocessed into a Brutal Technology Industrial Sound Clash.

Despair Made Their European Debut in 2005 with Dates in the U.K.
and at "WAVE GOTIK TREFFEN 2005" with "PSYCLON NINE" and "HAUJOBB".

TERROISTIC TECHNOLOGY RIOT / SATANIC CYBER PUNK / DESTRUCTION OF THE UNCONSCIOUS PROGRAMMING...
