As the poster declares – Legendary Japanese Emo Art Punk Rock Trio Since 1999!! – TsuShiMaMiRe reprises face-melting South by Southwest stops dating back to 2015, which no doubt primed this town to welcome theatrical shredders like Otoboke Beaver so warmly. Still jamming on new sweet-then-scratchy singles like “Psychedelic Soliloquy,” the band sources 100% Austinite tourmates, as their U.S. tour kicked off with A Giant Dog accompaniment out west. Local surplus-riffers We Are the Asteroid back the Texas dates. If you miss the 7:15pm Hotel Vegas early gig, TsuShiMaMiRe unexpectedly takes on Buda, Tex. to wrap up their run, with special guest Suckling.
