Japanese Music Video by “My Dragon” is Incredibly Bizarre

/ On : 9/01/2011/ .

Mixing electronica, metal-esque growls, and a lot of fetishistic, anime-like crossdressing, this music video from Japan is clearly the sort of thing thought up while on an acid binge.




Featuring men dressed up as popular cartoon characters, with what is apparently the lead singer doing his best impression of that chubby dancing girl in a bee costume from the Blind Melon song “No Rain,” this music video from what I can only assume is a popular Japanese band will find you staring wide-eyed at the screen and jaw agape at the utter weirdness unfolding.

According to the comments, the band is called My Dragon, and the song is called Nijigen Complex. Translated into English, “nijigen” apparently means “two dimensions,” which does absolutely nothing in helping to determine what the song might actually be about or what it has to do with the video. Another site revealed that the band is the alter ego of “visual-kei band Kiryu.”

According to Wikipedia, visual-kei is “a movement among Japanese musicians that is characterized by the use of make-up, elaborate hair styles and flamboyant costumes, often, but not always, coupled with androgynous aesthetics.”

Now it makes sense.
