What this is
NO MEMORIES is a landmark anniversary concert celebrating Harbor Studio's 10th year as a live music venue in Kobe. The show brings together three significant acts from Japan's post-hardcore and experimental heavy music scene: headliner envy, alongside regional powerhouses PALM and bacho. Notably, this marks envy's first Kobe performance in nine years, their last having been a self-organized event in 2017. The event is as much a celebration of the Kansai hardcore community and Harbor Studio's decade-long role within it as it is a straightforward concert.
Who should go
This show is essential for fans of Japanese post-hardcore, screamo, and experimental heavy music — particularly those who follow envy, one of Japan's most internationally respected acts in the genre. It will also appeal to anyone interested in the underground Kansai live music scene and independent venue culture. The intimate setting of Harbor Studio means this will feel like a genuine community gathering rather than a large commercial event. Arrive early to soak up the atmosphere and connect with the local scene.
Good to know
Tickets are most likely available through eplus.jp or pia.jp — both accept foreign credit cards, and Lawson convenience store pickup is the easiest option for visitors without a Japanese address. Harbor Studio is a small independent live house, so capacity will be limited and the atmosphere will be close and intense — standing floor is expected. Merchandise from all three bands may be available on the night, so bring extra cash. Doors typically open 30–60 minutes before showtime at venues of this type; arriving at door open is strongly recommended given the likely demand for this anniversary event.
