BACK-ON Unite with RIZE Frontman JESSE for New Digital Single!

“Kill The Beat” Digital Jacket Cover

Currently celebrating their 15th anniversary year, rock band BACK-ON release their latest single “Kill the Beat feat. JESSE” on July 30, along with a music video. The song is a collaboration with JESSE, frontman of revered rock bands RIZE and The BONEZ. It was JESSE who originally gave BACK-ON their name back when they began – BACK-ON being Japanese wordplay that means “explosive sound”. 

“Kill the Beat” is BACK-ON’s first ever collaboration song, produced with the intention of returning to the roots of rap-rock. JESSE and BACK-ON members KENJI03 and TEEDA sing and rap intertwining lines over a heavy beat that will transport you back to the music scene of the early 2000s.

A teaser “spot” video released ahead of the single features a clip of the song over vintage footage of BACK-ON and JESSE from earlier in their careers. It’s a rare and valuable glimpse into Japanese rap-rock history!
