Hippy Stage, Fuji Rocks

Fuji Rock Festival, arguably one of the best in the world, has an especially impressive and diverse lineup this year.

If Radiohead are on your bucket list, along with the Stone Roses, you can see them both at Fuji. It would be worth the ticket just to see those two, but thrown into the mix are also major drawcards like Elvis Costello, Buddy Guy and At The Drive In.

Over at the electronic stage there is turntable wizard Dj Kentaro, Canada’s Caribou, electronic duo Justice, Agoria and London’s James Blake. Psychedelic quartet Django Django will be a guaranteed favourite, and of course there is a huge smattering of Japanese acts to check out too.

Fuji Rocks

As well as all this incredible music, there is the beautiful scenery, amazing art installations, roving performers, sunshine and a once in a lifetime experience!

DOOM METAL: The protagonist arrives, sees the size of the dragon and thinks he could never beat him, then he gets depressed and commits suicide. The dragon eats his body and the princess as dessert. That's the end of the sad story.

GLAM METAL: The protagonist arrives, the dragon laughs at the guy's appearance and lets him enter. He steals the princess' make up and tries to paint the castle in a beautiful pink colour.
NU METAL: The protagonist arrives in a run down Honda Civic and attempts to fight the dragon but he burns to death when his moronic baggy clothes catch fire.

Ultra Living's debut album is an bizarre blend of beats that's forever left off centre but ultimately accessible.

ULTRA LIVING - Monochromatic Adventure

Ranging in style from the down tempo funk of the title track and "(Fire is the ) Ultra Living", to the blissed out jungle on "Freeze, Die and Revive" and the questioning vocal of "God Song", there's always something to keep your interest. Perhaps not everybody's cup of tea in its entirety but give it a try and you might surprise yourself.
