Combines idol performance with metalcore and deathcore rather than treating the two as separate markets: dual growl and clean vocals with choreographed staging. US debut Anime Los Angeles, January 2024; Resurrection Fest and Japan Expo in 2025 on a nine date European tour; signed to Metal Blade 5 February 2026. Screaming Rebellion Europe Tour, summer 2026: booked for Wacken Open Air on 29 July per the Metal Blade announcement (the appearance is not separately recorded in the sources checked); played Downstairs at The Dome, London (2 August), Summer Breeze (13 August) and Reload (14 August), each recorded on setlist.fm. An idol metal export case: its Metal Blade signing and European bookings place it among the clearest current examples of Japanese idol metal entering established international metal infrastructure, a test of whether a hybrid format can move from scene novelty to durable label supported export.
