WOW! POLYSICS are playing this year! No surprise, since they'll be in the area during their Western US Tour.

Is it just me, or does Dir En Grey seem out of place on that list?

Well SXSW is known to have a lot of different genre's of music. I think it's good to see kind of a mix of Japanese bands.

sxsw is more of a showcase for interesting, lower-profile bands than just a collection of big-name acts (not to say they don't have big names). but dir en grey seems to be fairly well-known in japan as well as abroad... they've actually made the oricon (japanese equivalent of billboard charts) top 10 singles chart.
and some of us just think they dress funny.
