"Jinsei Kaitai -Life Dismantled- " is an attempt to release the inner conflicts and complex emotions we face in our daily lives through music.

As KATOKINO marks the 10th anniversary of this journey, I found myself pausing to reflect.
"I want to dismantle myself once, and start over."
That feeling became the starting point for this album.

During my time abroad, I came to truly appreciate the charm of J-POP.
At the same time, I felt a quiet urge to rebel against it just a little. That contradiction became another key inspiration.

Each of the ten tracks is built around a unique perspective and theme-exploring personal pain, questioning society, and more.
It's a multifaceted collection drawn from many angles.

This album is a journey of deconstructing oneself through the power of music, and discovering something new in the process.
It crosses genres, and brings individuality to the forefront.
I hope you'll take this work and dismantle it with your own heart.

Artist Profile

  • Kino Kato

    Kino Kato began performing in 2014. In 2015, they won the Nagoya Grand Prix at the 9th Music Revolution. Their music features a percussive guitar style combined with lyrics that humorously and ironically reflect the absurdities of everyday life and discomfort with society. They traveled alone to London, the Czech Republic, and Paris, independently promoting their music. Their solo show in Paris was a full house, and they spent three months busking, developing a truly one-of-a-kind style of expression. In 2021, they launched their own independent label, ONIKO LABEL. The name "Kino Kato" comes from a childhood nickname. Due to their bowl-cut hairstyle, they were often called "kinoko" (mushroom) in school. "Kino" is a remnant of that nickname, paired with their surname at the time, "Kato."
