synopsis //
Video Metal
combines Yoshi Sokeoka's (aka C505) frenetic and bastardized analog
video compositions in conjunction with his insidiously maniacal guitar
work into a hybridized form that will obliterate your senses. Proceed
with caution as reported cases confirm that Sodeoka's distrorted Video Metal deities have been reaching through the screen and melting viewers on site.
