| I don't know about this one..... Energetic alright but they scream (kakegoe) too much like savage beasts. You don't see that in Japan. |

| You know, I would have have made a point that these performing are really getting into their work and expressing it, but when you gave the Japanese translation, I just couldn't bring myself to it. |
| Too much kakagoe!? ... ( 10 months ago by joefortruth) |
| Too much kakagoe!? Yeah that's how we do here in the Frisco City. The Old World gave us this wonderful gift and we are returning the art how we see it right. Savage beasts will eat you alive like tigers escaped from a zoo. Investigate 911. |

| hahaha. Japanese fire dragons burning through the terror, destroying all that was left of the ashes of tyranny. Justice and liberty throbbing in the veins of humans, defiant to the end, victorious for our ancestors. |
| well i practise ... ( 6 months ago by dagomankle) |
| well i practise kendo and we do a lot of kakegoe, it boosts ure resistance a lot, so its ok to do it in taiko i guess cause they use a lot of energy ....... |
| They seem to work ... ( 6 months ago by azure1974) |
| They seem to work themselves into a trance then into a savage frenzy. Beautiful |
| i noticed that they ... ( 6 months ago by orihx3) |
| i noticed that they also used a considerable amount of kakagoe in this performance as well. but you have to remember something... they performed nonstop pounding drums for seven minutes. have you tried to do that? it's not easy. esp for the two drummers on the big central drum - b/c the head is so large, it requires very, very strong strokes. the kakagoe helps to build strength and keeps the intensity of the piece. its also why martial artists use it. its the spirit. |
| THIS MAKES MY BLOOD ... ( 5 months ago by PigeonPDT) |
| THIS MAKES MY BLOOD RUSH. WONDERFULL THEY REALLY PUT ALOT OF ENERGY INTO THIS, AND ANYONE WHO CRITISISE THIS, BETTER BE FAMILIAR WITH THE CULTURE OF TAIKO AND ACTUALLY PRACTICE, I ALSO PRACTICE KENDO AND LIVE IN JAPAN FOR A LONG TIME, BUT NOW THAT IM FAR AWAY FROM THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN IT MAKES ME REGRET THE FACT THAT I DIDNT APRECIATE AS MUCH ITS CULTURE AS I SHOULD HAVE, GUEES I GOT CAUGHT up WITH THE NIGHT LIFE IN ROPPONGi, DEFINETLY GOING BACK TO JAPAN, KAMPAI |

| It is the same song ... ( 4 weeks ago by Warhawk71) |
| It is the same song as in Rising Sun - Tsunami - and this is the same group that performed it in the movie. I have had the pleasure of seeing the San Francisco Taiko Dojo perform this live several times, and it is much better in person. The Sacramento Taiko Dan is also very good. |
