A New Beast from the East Awakens: ALGESIA

ALGESIA Japanese bands IRA imagery

Fronted by viral scream queen Yu Umehara, whose blistering vocal covers have earned her over half-a-million followers online, ALGESIA combines her feral, guttural power with a crushing sonic onslaught crafted by two veteran musicians with proven international pedigrees. Together, they form a new world-class metalcore unit poised to erupt onto the global stage.

Named after the term for ‘pain and sensation’, ALGESIA exists to make you feel everything. No fear. No compromise. Just pure, unfiltered catharsis.

Their debut single, IRA’, is a primal scream from the abyss. A savage blend of metalcore, djent, and Japanese melodic undertones, engineered to perfection by Katsuya (SLOTHREAT). From the very first scream, ALGESIA delivers a clear message: they are not here to stay underground – they’re here to dominate.

IRA’ is out now on all major platforms via London’s JPU Records. Brace yourself. This is just the beginning.
