EX-Girl
Ex-Girl (stylized as eX-Girl) is a Japanese female noise rock trio. The band's lineup currently consists of Kirilola (bass, vocals), Hiromi (drums, vocals) and Yuka (guitar, vocals).
Ex-Girl claims to hail from the planet Kero Kero. They are described as psychedelic, space rock, jazz fusion, jagged alternating vocal harmonies, sugary synthesiser pop, punk, prog, epic/atmospheric, noise-rock, wavering three-part a cappella, borderline operatic vocals, often in the space of a single song. Live performances include home-made costumes, synchronised robot dancing and frog-related items. Enthusiastic supporters include Mike Patton and Jello Biafra:
Ex-Girl are a beautiful example of information overload. Jagged 3 part vocal harmonies, adventurous arrangements, and songs that hook you like the sucker that you are. Take all of these treats, wrap it in an ultra-bright technicolor live show with surreal homemade costumes, and you've got the sensation of being strapped in on an out-of-control carnival ride that will leave you standing in line waiting for another turn.
— Mike Patton
Ex-Girl was founded in 1997. Its original members were Chihiro, Kirilo and Fuzuki. Regardless of the members' nonexistent musical experience, their career took off quickly as they began touring and released their debut album within a year of creating the band, all safely under the wing of the famous producer/keyboardist Hoppy Kamiyama.
In 1999, the band performed at the Japan Nite event at SXSW in Austin, Texas. Around this time Virgin Megastore and Tower Records noticed Ex-Girl and did their part in marketing the new album Kero! Kero! Kero!.
The a cappella album Big When Far, Small When Close was released in 2000 via Kirilo's own label Kikipoo Records. At the same time, Ex-Girl released their previous album in Europe, which brought the band to tour the continent for the first time. In July, they toured together with Fantômas, with the help of Mike Patton (Faith No More). The band performed in Finland from October to November.
The group returned to Europe again in 2001, playing at big events such as Denmark's Roskilde Festival. At the end of the year, they had their first ever change of line-up as Chihiro quit and Keiko (of Super Junky Monkey) picked up the spot of being Ex-Girl's guitarist. Before the change, though, the original members had a project named PUNK LADY, where they covered Pink Lady's biggest hits. Ex-Girl, with the new line-up, toured again in Finland in 2002, before having the chance to support Siouxsie and the Banshees on its tours both in the US and the UK. This increased their popularity.
