Without a doubt, GISM is by far the most infamous Japanese hardcore punk group to ever exist. Their
unique take on the style along with the stories of crazed violent live performances, intense visual
imagery, and the shroud of mystery has given them tremendous cult status amongst fans and
collectors of hardcore punk. GISM was light years ahead of their contemporaries when it came to
chaotic, raw, distorted, and incredibly unique sounds, ranking them right beside fellow heavyweights
