 We've had the pleasure to sit down and talk with ACME a couple times in the past (with interviews that can be found HERE and HERE) and we're sure that we'd have had an opportunity to do so again in 2020 if not for the current, ongoing worldwide pandemic. A trying year for everyone around the world, ACME, like countless bands around the world, pulled through it as best they could and would round out the year with a rather interesting song in the form of "RISING SUN". Let's take a closer look at both this song, its MV, and even close out with a discussion about the song with the band themselves!
 With an upcoming appearance at Katsucon in Maryland, and a lot of word of mouth, we were lucky enough to recently catch up to Visual Kei band LANTANA and ask them a few questions regarding their formation, their inspirations, their upcoming overseas appearance, and more! If you're a fan of Visual Kei that comes with a tinge of melodic rock that isn't afraid to get loud, and even dark, then this is a band you're going to want to check out!
LANTANA first began their activities in July of 2015 and in December of the same year released their first mini album and held a Tohoku region tour. In February of 2016, they held their first sponsored event. With their next sponsored events held consecutively in June, July, and August. LANTANA released their 1st single in 2017 and it was followed by their second in May with their first oneman event that July. In February of 2019, LANTANA will perform at Katsucon for the event’s 25th anniversary in National Harbor, MD.  We've been hearing a lot about ACME lately and we were lucky enough to see CHISA this past July at Anime Expo in Los Angeles during his appearance at the Fashion Show. When given the opportunity to interview the entire band we jumped at it and now we bring it to you! Hot off the release of their first full-length album, "Zesshou Ouka", ACME's unique sound, look, and concept are sure to draw you in. Don't take our word for it though, check out the interview and then follow some links to their MVs and more to see just what makes them stand apart in a somewhat crowded scene!
