World’s Appreciated Kitsch proudly presents:

BAD BREEDING (anarcho-punk, UK)

3 years after their insane gig in May 2023, Bad Breeding return to Occii!

Hailing from Stevenage, England, the first new town to be declared under the 1946 New Town Act, Bad Breeding are an anarcho-punk four-piece delivering punishing blasts of ferocious noise that draws influence from the original British pioneers of the scene; Crass, Rudimentary Peni, and Flux of Pink Indians. More than perhaps any other contemporary punk band, Bad Breeding seem preternaturally able to make music that sounds the way it feels to live in today’s world. After almost a decade’s worth of work, they offer no easy diatribes about the failures of neoliberalism, the war on the working class, and the unfolding horror of climate change. Instead, in complex layers of sound and structure, Bad Breeding projects a viable path forward: envisioning a future unfettered by the state and finding power in community, solidarity and worker-led organisation.

KLONNS (new wave of Japanese hardcore, JP)

Klonns is a Japanese hardcore punk band from Tokyo. Formed in 2016, the band advocates 'NEW WAVE OF JAPANESE HARDCORE'. Klonns are one of the most promising and active bands coming out of Japan now, combining the explosive hardcore sound of the undisputed classics with the kind of raw emotions that make things as shocking and exciting as pissing on an electric fence.

ZENOCIDE (anarcho doom punk, JP)

Formed in 2004, Tokyo’s Zenocide started as an authentic UK crust style band, while incorporating elements of anarcho punk, post-punk, black metal, industrial noise, and doom/sludge, to create their own unique dark soundscape. In 2009, they released their first album through HG Fact, and in 2024, they released their second album, ‘Ashes Asylum’, and toured Japan with Poison Ruïn (US) and Bad Breeding (UK).

With a lineup change and the addition of drummer Kyawa, they have now developed a more solid, aggressive, and dark unique style.
