Last Friday, popular chiptune band Anamanaguchi released the video for their latest single, “Endless Fantasy.” As someone who was marginally aware of them, I found myself replaying the video over and over throughout the day, then found myself attaining a ticket to their show at Lincoln Hall the next day. I took some photos of Anamanaguchi while their fans dancing and crowd surfed to the band’s noted video game sound-effect laden instrumentation. I actually had a lot of fun amidst the stage setup complete with flashing neon-colored lights and animated 8-bit sprite GIFs It definitely was a different change of pace to the hip hop shows I’ve spent the past year attending.
