Overview

THE BACK HORN returns with the 17th installment of their legendary “Maniac Heaven” tour, a special series designed specifically for the band’s most dedicated followers. Known for their explosive “Kyo-Shin-Zen-Rei” (full soul and body) performance style, THE BACK HORN has been a pillar of the Japanese alternative rock scene since 1998. Unlike their standard promotional tours, Maniac Heaven features curated setlists that often dive deep into their extensive discography, highlighting rare tracks and fan favorites that are seldom performed live.

The 2026 tour takes the band through a series of iconic live houses across Japan, from the intimate atmosphere of Fukuyama MUSIC FACTORY to the renowned acoustics of Sapporo Penny Lane 24. These venues are chosen to foster a close-knit, high-energy environment where the raw emotion of their lyrics and the intensity of their heavy, melodic sound can be felt at full force. For international fans, this tour offers a profound look into the cult-favorite side of one of Japan’s most influential rock institutions.

Why Attend

• Witness a specialized “Maniac Heaven” setlist featuring deep cuts and rare performances that you won’t hear on a typical THE BACK HORN promotional tour.
• Experience the band in their natural element—intimate live houses—where the boundary between the stage and the audience practically disappears.
• Join an elite community of dedicated Japanese rock fans who have supported the band’s unique “Kyo-Shin-Zen-Rei” philosophy for over two decades.
• Catch the band during a peak period of their career as they bring their dark, poetic, and powerful sound to legendary stages across the Japanese archipelago.

Faqs

What makes a “Maniac Heaven” tour different from a standard concert tour?

The Maniac Heaven series is specifically designed for long-time fans, focusing on rare tracks, b-sides, and experimental setlists that are not typically included in their mainstream tours. The atmosphere is often more intense and focused on the band’s deeper discography.

Are there assigned seats for the shows at Sendai Rensa or DRUM Be-1?

No, these performances are “All Standing” events. Your ticket will include a serial number that determines your entry order; once inside the venue, you are free to find a standing position on the floor to watch the performance.

How do I handle the “1 drink order” requirement at the venue entrance?

Upon entering live houses like DRUM Be-1, you will be required to pay a drink fee (usually 600 yen) in cash. In exchange, you will receive a token or ticket that can be redeemed for one beverage at the bar inside the hall.

What should I do if the performance I want to attend is sold out?

If the official tickets are no longer available, our concierge team can search for legitimate tickets through verified Japanese resale marketplaces. We ensure that any tickets sourced this way are authentic and provide a reliable entry to the venue.

Will THE BACK HORN perform their most famous hits during this specific tour?

While the focus of Maniac Heaven is on rare tracks, the band usually includes a few staple anthems. However, the primary appeal of this tour is the unique opportunity to hear songs that have not been played live in years, making it a “maniac” experience for true fans.
