LEO今井と人間椅子という絵面の強さ

You cannot help but love them, as the genuine and passionate musicians and people they are. As far as I could hear, they don't use studio trickery like robotic time alignment and autotune, and on some songs it even feels like they're not even recording to a metronome but letting the drummer feel out the beat. It's refreshingly pure. I'm glad I found this band :) It took a few recommendation hops from youtube as I looked for something similar to another japanese band I quite enjoy. I'm really glad to have found Ningen Isu. Congratulations to their anniversary and the concerts they booked overseas - I hope people fill the venues to the brim!

this is exactly why i get chills and the chickenskins in the neck only just hearing them speak - its awe inspiring and deeply humbling to see their personalities shine aswell as their unbelievably mastery of writing and composing aswell as working together in seemingly an unbreakable harmony shared to all who have eyes and ears :)

I love how Ningen Isu doesn't mix English words in the lyrics, unlike most Japanese bands. To me it sounds much better that way.

I have disliked Japanese hard rock band whose lyrics is not English. But, after re-realizing Ningen Isu, I am aware that I have wrong understanding about format. Ningen Isu is great because they play songs in Japanese. It was also over 30 years ago when I knew them first but unfortunately, I could not like their appearance and attitude at that moment.

海外ツアー、ファンとして、めちゃくちゃ嬉しいです。嬉しいのにこの動画見たら、涙が出てきました。感動です。長年ファンで良かった。世界に羽ばたいて下さい。

親愛なる人間椅子の皆さま、欧州でのご成功をお祈り致します。　Buddha bless you!

LEO今井さん　素晴らしいインタビューです🤘🤘🤘　ありがとう😊

Congratulations from the USA. Ningen Isu are rock legends.

Sadly here in North America we rarely even get a glimpse of World Class Overseas acts. Japan is overflowing with World Class Entertainment. Here is a prime example of Progressive Rock/Metal Excellence. Bad Ass in Any Language. Hope this is the tip of an iceberg of many World Wide shows.

Come to Finland! Our roundabouts are quite simple and we love rock & metal music! I'd pay one month salary to see you guys play live!

言葉が通じなくても、音楽で分かり合えるかもね。素敵なライブになりますように。

"Hard Rock Otaku" is going to be the 2020's equivalent to the "Grunge" 1990's! Go Ningen Isu!

LEOさんオックスフォード院卒でマルチリンガルって心づよすぎる 皆さんを宜しくお願い致します

Man it sucks that they play near me when I am away. I would totally go to their show.

LEO今井さんありがとう😊

Thanks to Ningen Isu and Leo Imai for doing this translated interview. I appreciate that Ningen Isu isn't going to change anything. The music is great enough to overcome any language barrier. And because of the music I want to learn the lyrics and what they're about. I love this band. Their songs and sound is true rock and roll as good as any American or British band. The whole world is now becoming aware of them, and the world needs them. It's exceedingly rare to discover such a great band these days. I wish them much success in the coming years. Thank you, Ningen Isu.

Leo...THANK YOU!!!

I wouldn't care if this video wasnt in English as long as it had English subtitles. It's nice to hear people in their native tongue, you get a good feel of the language and how people express it that way.

Wajima has the best guitar tone!! Pure rock tone!!

2 music videos and 1 minute into this interview and I already deeply care about this band.

え！？ドイツ来てくれんの？ ライブ行けるじゃん！やったー

❤Kenichi Suzuki. Love you guys🎵

They are just too cute!

When i first listen to Ningen Isu, my Reaction was like "wooaah" When i heard that they will play in Berlin, my Reaction was like "hell yeeeeahhh". Guys i cant wait see you soon! Have good Journey!

See you in Bochum.

COME TO SPAAAAAAIN!!!

Thank you so much for this interview. It's nice to know they sense our happiness when we discover their awesome music. And don't change a thing. We love you just the way you are.

So i find this band 4 days after their last tour date... Guess that's just my luck!

It is nice to get to know them a little. Thanks for helping the interview Leo. I hope they come to USA soon, so they can see their American fans too!!!

Thanks Leo! Very nice. Hope to see more soon. Try to talk to them about coming to the US (especially Hawaii....we have a Blue Note here in Waikiki that might be nice for them).

I'm so excited to see you play in Austin, TX for SXSW!!

A USA tour would be awesome!

Of all the rock bands working today , this is the best I've heard.

Can't wait to see them in Bochum!

Deep thanks and appreciation for an English interview! Can't wait to see them in the States! 🤘👹💀🎸

Sweden needs you!

Please please I hope this is just the beginning! We want you all in the US! I love you guys, your music and styles are so upbringing, refreshingly inspires me.

I have a feeling there is going to be many more overseas shows in their future, if they want to do them of course.

I love these dudes so much!! Thanks for this. 🇦🇺 -- an Aussie

That Dodarebachi cover is how I found Ningen Isu.

God damn, these guys are bad ass yet incredibly endearing. And coming to the UK? Hell yes!

I hope they find their way to NA, Canada needs to hear these guys.

Excellent interview, can't wait for the London gig!

Gonna see them in Bochum \m/

Looking forward to see you in the UK in February. you guys ROCK

this whole interview was wonderful. Thank you Leo for translating and interviewing them. I really wish I could see them over here in America.

We love NINGEN ISU! Please put on Spotify the name of your songs in English characters beside the Japanese you have now, in order to be easier for us in the rest of the word to know the name of the songs! Arigato!

Please come to Toronto Canada!!!

you guys are true legends , all the best for the next 30 years

I'd love you guys to come to Australia

Thanks so much for this. ❤️

LEO今井さんって、つぶらなキレイな目してるのね♪ 機材がロストしない限りステージ上での心配はないけど食生活が質素すぎる。 私がイギリス旅した時、飛行機内やホテルの部屋が乾燥してのどがガラガラで、のどぬーるぬれマスクして蒸気でホットアイマスクして目薬片手に耐えた感あったなぁ。 ビジネスクラス以上で飛べる事を祈ります。 ヨーロッパエリアは硬水多いから日本の軟水と違う時点で持参のインスタントみそ汁も味が違った気がするしサトウのご飯はレンジがない部屋だと ホテルのポットに無理やり突っ込んで温めたなぁぁ。　春雨スープやフリーズドライの食品が軽くておススメですよ。 　ヨーロッパツアー楽しんできてください。空港の免税でタバコカートン買いお忘れなくw　そして、色々お土産話楽しみにしております。

Never heard of these guys til just recently, but they're awesome. Really happy they are accessible here, although it would be nice to have their music physically more available. I like how you can pick out the drummer just by his speaking volume lol

Great interview, I really enjoyed this very much! These guys have a great sound and I've truly enjoyed being subscribed to both Ningen Isu and Sorrowful Shinji Wajima. Rokkuon!

SUPER AWESOME DUDES , SUPER AWESOME BAND , NINGEN ISU RULEZ

You should come to Italy, I hope soon.

Wow awesome, excited to learn more about you guys.

I recently listened to some of the live stuff and it's just amazing.

Have fun in Europe, congratulations!
