The Raw Energy of Early Visual Kei: Justy-Nasty’s “Too Bad”
The Japanese visual kei scene has a rich and varied history, and exploring its early, independent roots often unearths raw and exciting gems. A perfect example is the mini-album “Too Bad” from the band Justy-Nasty, released on the Rose label with the catalog number ROSE-004.
Justy-Nasty emerged in the late 1980s, part of the wave of bands that blended punk rock energy, hard rock attitude, and a distinctive visual style. “Too Bad” captures the band in their early, formative stages, showcasing a sound that is raw, energetic, and full of youthful aggression.
This mini-album is a fantastic slice of late 80s Japanese rock. The music is likely a powerful mix of driving punk rhythms, catchy, hard-rocking guitar riffs, and charismatic vocals. It’s the sound of a band honing its identity, playing with a passion and intensity that often characterizes early independent releases. This is the raw material from which the later, more polished visual kei sound would evolve.
For any fan of early visual kei, Japanese punk, or the history of the country’s independent rock scene, “Too Bad” is a valuable and exciting find. It’s a snapshot of a band on the rise, full of potential and raw power. You can find this album on our website.
