Much of Kodo's performance is visual; beauty of style and sound meld in "Yae-No-Furyu" and "Yamauta." In the latter, one performer approaches a drum measuring eight feet across, elevated on a platform strung with lanterns. Accompanied only by a mournful flute and finger cymbals, the drummer slams his mallets into this colossal drum, invoking not only the sounds, but the surging rage...

Neither of them loses because the musical and visual display titillated the senses, pleasing the immediate need for entertainment and the escape from the daily monotony. Their only chance of being indelible, and ultimately their only chance at Deathmatch victory, lies in the realm of CD and radio where they must be relegated. There, they can seize the banners of creative intuition and expression to supersede the notion that their live efforts lack evocative...
