This website was created by The Homicidol Maniac as a celebration of the tremendously innovative, ass-kicking idols of Japan’s independent and underground music scene who we call “homicidols.” Since October of 2015, it has served as a showcase for the revolutionary music at the center of it all: idol-led punk and hardcore and metal (and, later, electronica and shoegaze and progressive rock and dream pop and hip hop) and all-around, genre crushing awesomeness. In recent years, the influence of the genre has reached overseas and alternative idol units can now be found across the globe.
As the site developed and grew, Maniac attracted and engaged a collection of like-minded collaborators who evolved over the years into Team Homicidols. This small company of writers possess a diversity of eclectic tastes that span almost the entirety of the various subgenres of the alternative idol pantheon.
Since its launch, Homicidols dot com has published close to 5,000 articles covering more that 350 idol units and artists. And we aren’t finished yet, not by a long shot.
Team Homicidols consists of:
