Psycho le Cemu

Psycho le Cemu


You only need one picture to get the gist of Psycho le Cemu. They put the "vis" in "vis-kei." While their music is surprisingly upbeat and positive compared to the usual gloom and glam of most other vis-kei bands, it's their visual style that far outweighs their musical talent. In a way, they are the anti-Gwar, sporting huge, brightly colored costumes that would no-doubt make it impossible to play an instrument. Good thing they almost always play to a backing track. But that's OK, because it gives several of the members the chance to get up front and do their various para-para dances. They made a brief splash in the US at anime cons, until singer Daishi went to jail for a bit, effectively breaking up the band.
