NECRONOMIDOL - ITHAQUA

[@greenghost2008]

Felt cute, might start a metal band later.

[@nicoleputnam7778]

Idol unit*

[@protikclapton]

Count me in

[@jamesbright3439]

What's the name?

[@Cjspectre7782]

I really do hope this group gets another incarnation soon. I regret finding them after they announced a hiatus, but i have enjoyed going thru the rabbit hole of all things Necroma

[@mgrzx3367]

The lead singer is doing a solo project under the name Isiliel, I don't think this band exists anymore. "Ritual" is an amazing song. TC we all dream.

[@ronnimetalpicodeathchamato6266]

Check out MANACLE (three girls here plus an unknown member at the time; though Risaki left the group last year and it was just revealed recently that she gave birth) with Hina, Risaki, and Rei (Ray)! Tall super long hair girl is Himari and is the only member left, but is currently focused on a solo career as ISILIEL (same management/producer of NECROMA), and girl in make-up is Sari who has been solo for several years now...

[@gozuam1617]

Yeah its a shame, really liked their music and am hoping for the same. Thought they were only an album or two away from getting more popular.

[@christinawilkephillips7684]

Freezing your ass off in the woods for a metal video ! 🤟😝🤟 METAL AF

[@carljohansvamp]

The Lead and tha Tall one are metal. The others are probably questioning their career choices.

[@inversion66]

Himari probably didn't imagine when this was filmed that she'd eventually be the senior member of the group.

[@lordvile1209]

at the end there, seeing how the snow doesn't immediately give way to their steps, you know that shits real, ice fucking cold. epic.

[@txmetalhead82xk]

Absolutely! You feel the cold on your head, neck, hands, and then feet. In fact, they probably couldn’t feel their feet. Dedication!

[@ThisVideoAnnoyedMe]

I don't think there's any other Japanese band that cares so much about it's foreign fans! Thanks so much for the lyric translations and performance videos for those who can not be there personally! As for this son, such a perfect mix of synth and metal rock sound, need more songs/bands like this! Anyone who wants to hear something similar should also check out these older Necronomidol songs too: Azathoth, Ichor, Skulls in the Stars, Vulture

[@hall0weentwn]

even though they aren't bands, idol groups from hello!project have english trans even though they aren't always right.

[@GideonHaitis]

That's only because their producer is an American. Or Australian. Either one of those two.

[@tcmax7837]

american

[@orhunseyran8506]

its business dude.

[@sjnix7044]

There manager is a metalhead from the US. He totally gets it.

[@Saicofake]

Something about the vocals singing over the synthesisers during the chorus makes it mesmerising.

[@Kenryu20]

I love your band, the concept of lovercraft together with the idols theme is super creative, the voices have a unique harmony, they deserve much more recognition.

[@gival2854]

Will I match the spyder, I love here greatfull !) 😘Please!

[@kalebdaark100]

I believe the lyrics on the chorus for this translate to something like "I'm so cold I may not survive this video, I'm so cold my joints have frozen stuff, I'm so cold I hope the filming's good, I'm so cold this will be the end of me".

[@fortyeightrush]

First psychopomp had such beautiful scenery and now ITHAQUA, NECRONOMIDOL is really giving us scenery fanservice.

[@WibottaZu]

The western hordes love Necronomidol! Between the English subtitles and the new Bandcamp store, I think 2017 will be your year!

[@pepperwillow6]

Wibotta Zu I just started liking these creepy and beautiful girls Necronomidol, can you please tell me what is Bandcamp store ?

[@WibottaZu]

The link is in the video description, you can buy music and merch with international shipping :)

[@kwasimodo7816]

A "Making of" of this video would be very interesting.

[@PrincessPetra14]

Did I mention? New favorite band! New favorite song! Go, Necronomidol!

[@Gustave154]

And the most chillest (literally) idol group goes to NECRONOMIDOL!!! DEATHLESS is a superb album definitely would recommend it if you like this song.

[@Gaoshiki]

>Music Video in a snowy forest Yep, that's metal alright.

[@jaye23_]

The only way to make it more metal is to watch it in 144p.

[@konstantin3374]

still not kvlt enough, buuuut maybe if I put my speakers in metal bucket...

[@mohameddebdoubi2130]

Gaoshiki jahahahhahahhahajajabaja

[@TheXnyu]

it’s even Death Metal

[@Satsujinki1973]

@@jaye23_ So true, yes I checked.

[@MarceloZinato]

This is pretty fucking amazing

[@bigmasterjay]

Talking about suffering for your art. I am impressed! Fighting!

[@HiDesert004]

The Great Old Ones demand suffering!

[@sleepysartorialist]

Fighting is a Korean thing don’t confuse Japan and Korea dude, that’s racist.

[@Staplegun]

@@sleepysartorialist You're right, the they FAITO instead.

[@ThanatosSD]

Sari is unique and we will always miss her. But I will always be supporting NECRONOMIDOL.

[@edgardvazquezhernandez1182]

MY god I felt myself freezing just watching them!!

[@21Kyzix12]

最近メタルのアイドルがちょっと流行ってきたけど、やっぱりNECRONOMIDOLはもちろん可愛くて綺麗で、その上に音楽と映像と雰囲気も一番メタルって感じですね。これからも応援しています！

[@txmetalhead82xk]

Lyrics are incredible - respect! Worshipping the Ice Walker, Ithaqua! Awesome

[@homicidols5430]

If you love ITHAQUA and you love Necroma, join us for this fun social support campaign on Friday! www.homicidols.com/next-friday-we-go-deathless4necroma/

[@DavidKAnderson]

Just saw them last night here in Portland. This song is their closer, and it was legit epic.

[@wintermute5486]

I came to see the idols but this guitar tone is red hot. Great song.

[@marionetamtz]

OMG! This is awesome! Great song and video! I respect the girls more than ever, that place must have been very cold.

[@mgrzx3367]

Amazing to watch this. Thank you so much. The love I feel is too much. Arigato . Thank you so much

[@derekwooding5354]

Just discovered this awesome Japanese metal band. I always appreciate it when they accommodate all their fans over seas. And Michelle has now joined them

[@metalmachine4433]

how should I describe this. It is both beautiful, mystical, cute, awsome

[@OSiE_3150]

Necroma: the costumes were too hot to wear onstage, making the girls sweat too much and feel uncomfortable, so we needed to make some adjustments Also Necroma: shoots music video in the freezing cold

[@pabloyagani]

Best song and video they have done

[@mgrzx3367]

Again KZbin fails me. They put this way down in a mix with a large variety of Japanese all Female metal bands, and this is first time hearing them. This is awesome sauce. I'll sub and ring the bell. Amazing! Arigato.

[@xXxXSchreiXxXx]

my favorite necronomidol song!

[@Raggedyman72]

Damn. You can see them shivering. Hina and Sari, mostly.

[@Raggedyman72]

Poor frozen Hina 2:23

[@luffywarrior]

Raggedyman72 I was thinking the same, that most have been hard for them.

[@luke666808g]

Grim and frostbitten af.

[@Frahamen]

And some thermal blankets

[@motterb.motterb.9033]

Raggedyman72 These Idols are tough

[@mitchellhodgemeyer7306]

A great track and a beautiful video (the girls are dedicated - they must have spent hours freezing in the snow.) Anyway, well done all - I dig this song and the clip too. Can't wait for the new CD; just a few more days of waiting.

[@randomman4938]

I'm freezing just watching this video.

[@JOHL08]

I am so possessed by this song 😂😈🤘🤟👍. Love and support from France ❤️🇨🇵.

[@theorenspencer]

Great song and video! Looks like it was really cold!

[@UMAlogist]

Song sounds incredible! Really great job on the video too.

[@werewolf2a]

Just discovered you!!! 😍

[@Toughguysdontdance12]

They die of Hypothermia at the end of the video, LOL, you can't get more black metal than that.

[@TheBadboybrian]

and their Souls... Froze Over... I lil bit over the edge... of some frozen planet somewhere....far... far ..far.. .Away. =D

[@rafaelrash]

loosing your toes in the name of metal!

[@txmetalhead82xk]

Becoming one with the Great Old One, Ithaqu.

[@syrtycon7299]

God bless the one with the pigtails. You can tell she was freezing her butt off.

[@vmmmusik1519]

its all so creepy its cool. so cheesy but feels so real. takes me back to Interview with a Vampire days. & still hot, i mean cold, no hot, for sure hot

[@ashj340]

Watching them perform this live was such good. Takes it to another level. Girls are very talented

[@tanapolboon-umpol8522]

another great song and pv !!

[@markbigelow2608]

I love the lyrics. So Lovecraft.

[@Princess_kitty14]

dying of hypothermia just for the aestethics, can't get any more metal than that

[@ThaKoalaKing]

The girl with the pigtails didn't look very happy to be there, she was very noticeably freezing her ass off.

[@Jarajuan1997.]

これは素晴らしい

[@technewsfortechnoobs]

You can tell how much of a trooper they all are, especially when you can literally see Hina (in the pigtails in the back) it literally standing there shaking because she is so cold. They all harmonize wonderfully in this group, but I honestly like the current version of Necronomidol more....and god help them if Himari ever leaves. Her voice is PERFECT for this style of music.

[@nordwitcher7124]

this is so fucking amazing

[@cockroachafro]

Sounds like some old Lucio Fulci soundtrack music mixed with symphonic death metal. Its great stuff.

[@Desert_Rose_]

This song is hauntingly beautiful

[@EnricoAldi]

this song n video reminds me of Burzum and Immortal... lol... but... you girls are the best over all !

[@gival2854]

juste amoureux! Tx from france and xp for "green air :)

[@MrInfernoblade10]

Wow this is truly awesome as if I needed another reason to love Japan, thanks "This Exists"

[@annawanna5995]

The girl with the teal-coloured hair reminds me heavily of that one Suehiro Maruo's artpiece... If her look is a direct reference to him, then it's kinda amazing to see it in an idol group of all places :D The song's cool by the way

[@yosephhermawan3085]

Amazing chorus..I love it

[@SuperInformatik]

One of my favourite songs. But Shooting of the video must been hell... or maybe more the cold counterpart. You clearly see several times, the young women are shivering... except Risaki Kakizaki. She is wearing way shorter clothes and doesn't even move an eyebrow. You have guts as hard as steel, Kakizaki-chan. 😁 But the hard shooting day provided a music video with remarkable imagery. It was definetely worth the struggle, congrats girls. 👍

[@seaotter4766]

Love the style

[@meimimiyasaki]

SO AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL! Guys! I have no words! The song is amazing tho! Congrats!

[@noahspencer7050]

"We gotta film a music video! What's the cheapest thing we can do?" "Well, it's really snowy outside." "I have a brilliant idea."

wow they deserve more recognition

This band is amazing. Lately listening a lot to Japanase Metal and it doesn't dissappoint me.

[@Niklas_Th]

The song itself is pretty great already but the video is superb, love it!

[@asxsoonxas]

売れる売れないを意識しずぎないで、この曲のリズムなりイメージをキープしていけばいい意味で維持していけると思います。 変に露出とか甘い路線ん移行すれば一時は売れると思いますが、短命に終わるのがわかる気がします。（素人目線）

damn all i can think while im watching this is damn they must be freezing there bllz off get them some heat! .... oh no man down man down

[@Giviero]

Yeah, you can see the gal in pigtails visibly shivering during several scenes, and subtly hiding her hands to keep warm. What lengths some bands go for these amazing music videos, but hopefully they had a hot drink shortly after.

Ithaqua? As in the wendigo-like creature from H. P. Lovecraft's stories?

[@HiDesert004]

Yes, IA ITHAQUA!

[@sjnix7044]

Pretty late on this but yes. The vast majority of their music is written around HP Lovecraft lore. In fact, as I write this, they are preparing to fly back to Japan after playing the Lovecraft Fest and Cthulu Con in Portland OR.
