SHONEN KNIFE
Shonen Knife UK tour 2025
“When I finally got to see them live, I was transformed into a hysterical
nine-year-old girl at a Beatles concert.” - Kurt Cobain
Shonen Knife - from Osaka, Japan - formed in 1981 by sisters Naoko & Atsuko long
before terms like ‘riot girrrl’ and ‘girl rock’ entered the lexicon, the all-female trio were
happily snapping guitar strings to the sound of imported Ramones covers.
Like fellow cult Japanese girl group The 5,6,7,8s, Shonen Knife have weathered decades
of musical change by adhering to what they know best: belting out their own infectious
brand of feelgood pop-punk.
Over the last 40 years they might not have packed out out stadiums but have been
credited as a huge influence on alt rock acts from Sonic Youth to Nirvana
Despite years on the road, their enthusiasm for live performances remains a joy to see as
they delve into an extensive back catalogue ranging from solid thrash rock through to hit
parade melodies.
But key to their success has been a disarming, often slightly surreal, take on their punk
and rock influences - and with songs titled Tortoise Brand Pot Cleaner could they ever be
accused of taking themselves too seriously? **
