Half Japanese is an American art punk band formed by brothers Jad and David Fair around 1975, sometime after the family's relocation to Uniontown, Maryland. Their original instrumentation included a small drum set, which they took turns playing; vocals; and an out-of-tune, distorted guitar. Both Fair brothers sang, although over time Jad moved into the frontman role. As of the last several releases since the 1990s, according to the album and CD credits, the band composes and plays the entirety of the music while Fair, eschewing his role as guitarist from earlier albums, plays almost no guitar but is responsible for the vocals and lyrics, which typically divide into either "love songs or monster songs." The band, still a vital "art punk" unit, has released six albums since 2014 with the sam

  • Half Japanese és un grup musical de Baltimore, Maryland, EUA. Es van caracteritzar als inicis principalment pel seu ús dels instruments de forma no convencional. El seu estil neix de l'escena punk, no wave, noise rock, lo-fi i del , desmarcant-se de qualsevol classificació i realitzant temes on la presència d'estructures musicals estàndards en la música rock era gairebé inexistent. Els seus primers discos varen capgirar l'escena pop i rock dels EUA arribant a punts on altres ni tan sols havien gosat pensar que s'hi podia arribar. Les seves lletres estan plenes de metàfores i descriuen realitats descarnades i en brut. (ca)
