Guernica (band)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guernica was a Japanese band formed in 1981. The trio consisted of vocalist Jun Togawa, composer and violinist Koji Ueno, and lyricist and art director . They are presumably named after the famous painting Guernica by Pablo Picasso. The band performed avant-garde pastiche of inter-war European music, sometimes substituting synthesizers for an orchestra. They borrowed futurist, communist and fascist aesthetics to recall the European and Asian inter-war and wartime period.
