VIDEO KISSxxxx (1991)
An experimental short film based on Maki Kusumoto’s KISS XXXX. Released in February 1991, this visually driven work features musical contributions from the underground Japanese bands Katsurei, Sakana, and dip the flag. Fusing Kusumoto’s signature gothic-romantic aesthetic with atmospheric soundscapes, the film stands as a rare artifact of Japan’s early ’90s avant-garde scene.
