History

1970s – 1980s

Both natives of Hirosaki, Wajima and Suzuki first became acquainted with one another while
attending a concert in a local music salon. They eventually became close friends when in 1981, they
both entered Hirosaki High School. Their friendship would further develop through frequent
exchanges of music-records. It was around this time that Suzuki first exposed Wajima to the music
of Kiss. Wajima himself was listening to the music of The Beatles, King Crimson, Deep Purple, and
Led Zeppelin at the time, while Suzuki favored Kiss, Saxon and Judas Priest. Suzuki was impressed
by Wajima's talent for songwriting and wrote a song called "Demon", while Wajima wrote a song
called "Tetsugōshi Mokushi-roku" (Apocalypse of Iron Grill), which was not received well by the

music salon but which Suzuki liked nonetheless. Two years later, Wajima and Suzuki joined Shine
Shine Dan ('dead dead group'), a band formed by members of the salon, with whom they played
hard rock songs at music festivals.

In 1985, after entering different universities (Wajima would study Buddhism at Komazawa
University while Suzuki studied Russian literature at Sophia University), they formed a hard rock
band, whose name was changed to Ningen'isu in 1987, the year when drummer Noriyoshi
Kamidate joined the band. They first gained public attention in 1989 through a performance of
their song Injū (Beast In The Shadows) on the Japanese Television program "Ikasu Band
Tengoku" (which roughly translates to "cool band heaven"), a newly initiated TV-band-contest that
first aired on Tokyo Broadcasting System Television during the same year.[5] Their uniquely heavy
sound, technical skill, and lyrics full of literary references took the judges by surprise.

1990 – 2004

In 1990, they released their first album "Ningen Shikkaku", followed two years later by "Ōgon no
Yoake", after which Kamidate left the band. They kept heavy sound and lyrics full of literature.

Drummer Masuhiro Goto would support the recording of their fourth album "Rashōmon" in 1993.
In 1995 and 1996, Iwao Tsuchiya served as the band's drummer but was replaced by Goto as a
permanent member until his leaving in 2003.

In 2004, the current drummer Nobu Nakajima joined. Wajima, Suzuki, and Nakajima once lived
in a neighborhood in the district Koenji, Tokyo, which is famous for its subculture, music and free
atmosphere.

2004 – 2020

Ningen Isu has seen a significant increase in popularity in recent years. They spent years being
little known outside Japan; the sales of their CDs didn't go well, but they gradually gained
popularity.

The band played at the Ozzfest 2013, hosted by Ozzy Osbourne, which they as Black Sabbath fans
felt honored by. Subsequently after that, they have gained many more fans.

In 2019, their record "Shin Seinen" reached rank 14 in the Oricon music charts, their highest chart
position of so far.[6] Published on May 14, 2019, their song "Heartless Scat" on YouTube reached
1.5 million views on July 3, 2019.[1] "Heartless Scat" has since achieved 9.5 million views, as of
August 9, 2021.

The band performed as their first world tour in Berlin, Bochum, and London in February 2020. [7]

Musical style
The band often writes about Japanese classical literature, for example: Edogawa Rampo, Dazai
Osamu, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Tanizaki Jun-ichiro, Mishima Yukio and also Edgar Allan Poe, H.
P. Lovecraft, Friedrich Nietzsche, Georges Bataille and so on. They often take up topics such as
hell, Buddhism, the universe, samurai and gambling. Wajima and Suzuki have a local accent called
the "Tsugaru dialect",[8] which adds a unique and heavy atmosphere and rhythm to their songs.
They, especially Wajima, often use difficult and old Japanese (words used in Edo period to Showa
period, often hard to understand even for Japanese people). They often wear Kimono and
traditional underwear Fundoshi on stage.[9]

Influences
Ningen Isu was strongly influenced by Black Sabbath.[10] Other influences include UFO, Led
Zeppelin, Kiss, Budgie, King Crimson, and similar artists. The play style of Wajima's guitar is
influenced by guitarists such as Robert Fripp, Tony Iommi, Jimmy Page, Ace Frehley, Michael
Schenker, and also the sound of Tsugaru-jamisen. Suzuki loves Kiss and paints his face white and
moves like Gene Simmons. Suzuki has a high opinion of Nakajima's eight beat.
