ACME is a visual kei band that formed in 2017 consisting of former DIV vocalist CHISA and guitarist SHOGO, former ARTEMA drummer HAL, and bassist RIKITO. Well known for their post-hardcore sound and colorful “oshare” style visuals, ACME is quickly rising in popularity in both the Japanese and American metal scene.
ACMEは2017年に、元DIVのボーカリスト・CHISAとギタリスト・SHOGO、元ARTEMAのドラム・HAL、そしてベーシスト・RIKITOによって結成されたビジュアル系バンドです。彼らのヘビーなサウンドと融合した、カラフルでおしゃれなスタイルで、瞬く間に日本、アメリカで人気を獲得して来ました。
Following their US debut at Anime Milwaukee in February 2019, ACME returned to the US to perform in Dallas at A-KON in June 2019 with over 1000 guests in attendance, then immediately followed with a solo show in Long Beach. Now, ACME explodes into 2020 with their first US West Coast tour.
ACME is asking their fans all over the world, both who can and cannot attend the tour to support the expenses required to tour in America. All funds raised will go towards flights between Japan and America, travel between tour stops, hotels, and expenses for food and equipment.
2019年の2月にアニメミルウォーキーにて、1000人を越えるファンの前でアメリカデビューライブを決行。同年6月のダラスのA-Konでのライブ、そして数日後にロサンゼルスのロングビーチでのワンマンライブを大成功に終わらせ、現在2020のアメリカ・ウエストコーストツアーに挑む。
ACMEは今回、ファンの皆さん(ツアーに参加される方、されない方問わず)に寄付金をお願いしています。集まった寄付金は全て、今回のツアーにかかる経費(飛行機代、滞在費、機材費、食費など)に当てられます。
Touring always requires a high budget to cover all expenses both foreseen and unforeseen. This is especially true with a band traveling from Japan to America where transportation costs add up the quickest. We have several levels of crowdfunding and special VIP events planned to cover these costs.
