Because what Japan of all countries needs is more xenophobia.

Wish I could do that. I don’t have local venues, unfortunately, and I rarely work up the motivation and gas money to haul myself 90 mins down the interstate to the nearest spot of civilization for some music. Occasionally, but not enough to integrate with the scene in any substantial way. I mainly discover music on lemmy, tbh, through music-focused communities. I feel that it works pretty well.
