WEG; maybe rather famous in the world
World's End Girlfriend is an artist that may be rather famous in the world, rather than in Japan. This is because his presence was known to the world through an music event called "Sonar" which took place in Balcerona (Some people in Japan did know about him before this, but they were those who are usually being called a delittante).

His music is said to be a chaos, having elements of classic, electronica, progressive rock, and contemporary experimental music mixed up. For this, his music is often compared to those of AFX.
On his latest work, "Hurtbreak Wonderland" he has been more committed in using the orchestra, and weaves out a story through out the album. For this, pros and cons are brought out on active devates. On one side, this has broaden out his tender side of music, on the other hand, his aggressive attackness, which is said to be his most admiring point, has blurred.
It is always difficult for artists move on to a different stage, but what he has proved on his new album is worth a try listenning to. But for people who have not listened to his music yet, the fore album, "The Lie Lay Land" maybe an album, more easy-to-understand of what kind of artist he is.
