Mo'Some Tonebender is Japanese hard rock and glam band that has been a pivotal figure in Japan's alternative rock scene. The group clearly owes much to the work of band's like The Pixies and even the industrial music of Nine Inch Nails. The band writes abrasive, flamboyant rock music using screeching guitar riffs and distorted drum machines, underscoring the influence of industrial music on the band's sound. Mo'Some Tonebender has been the headlining band in Japan's now-famous US tour brigade entitled "Japan Nite," and has performed at lauded festivals like SXSW and venues all around the country.
