THANKS FOR THIS!! What a Great performance! I'm always blown away that these guys are STILL innovating their mutant guitars - freaking HEROES. An aside: Anyone have an idea as to who is distributing Alchemy stateside? Solmania are putting out their first new album in 18 YEARS and, being a huge fan, I NEED IT!
+MarsHottentot I just discovered this band and I would LOVE to know more, if I could have any information on this album or tour dates I would love to see it lol
+Trogdor Man (supertrogdorman5252) Masahinko Ohno - the guy on the left. They've been doing this since the late 80's and have continually made new guitars with numerous pick-ups, sympathetic strings, outputs, effects, microphones etc. They used to be really crude looking, but they've got it down to an art now. Those things are beautiful!
That’s definitely one way of looking at it, the limitations/boundaries they are pushing with how they use those pedals is what makes it noise and music, the very alien soundscape is the art that’s being put on display
these guys are masters at rock and roll music

+MarsHottentot back in the day, before they closed/reopened, Jojo would just ship stuff to the states directly. send Alchemy an e-mail.
+SenzuriChampion I did and he did - it's on the way! Thanks!
Wow this is amazing.! PLAY LOUD!
Does anyone have the tabs?
Thank you for sharing!
These are some rad axes.
Oh shit!! Did you see the image @4:52?! I swear it was Kurt Cobain.
It is quite difficult to notice any correlation between the sound and what they are doing.
That’s kinda the point bozo
These guitars are pretty cool looking. Does anyone know who built them?

so basically these guys just show off their cool effects pedals without playing actual notes or melody

I mean, they're also showing off their sick-ass modified guitars, which alone produce sounds unimaginable from normal axes.
