Fronted as the solo project of independent artist Kyuho, Madmans Esprit seamlessly fuses elements from black metal’s subgenres, folk, and classical music, all delivered with a striking Visual Kei aesthetic. This multifaceted approach has earned them a diverse and loyal international audience, captivated by their genre-defying soundscapes and emotive performances.

Madmans Esprit’s commitment to live music is set to continue with headline shows in the United Kingdom, appearing at The Garage in London and Manchester’s Rebellion as part of their 2027 Europe Tour SEVERANCE.
