FACT have confirmed the full lineup for ROCK-O-RAMA-THE END, their final show, set for October 5th at Makuhari Messe’s Halls 9–11 in Chiba. The self-organised event will feature 17 acts, including a mix of Japanese and international names.
Joining FACT for the farewell are long-time collaborators Crossfaith, Crystal Lake, and HEY-SMITH, along with The BONEZ, dustbox, ENTH, 04 Limited Sazabys, and more. Overseas guests include UK hardcore unit Your Demise and Australian prog outfit Closure In Moscow.
HER NAME IN BLOOD will return to the stage for the first time since their 2021 disbandment, with original drummer Shigeki Nakazato (Umebo) back in the lineup. Umebo, who departed in 2016, replaces Maki, who had played with the band until their split. This will be the band’s first live performance in over four years.
Since disbanding, several members have remained active in other projects. Daiki Koide joined Crossfaith in 2024, while Taji Hisatsugu now plays with Crystal Lake. Bassist Makoto performs with THE LOCAL PINTS and works with music-focused brewery CRAFTROCK. Nakazato has played with WORLD END MAN since 2017. However, frontman Ikepy has kept a low profile, with no public activity in recent years.
