is a Japanese rock band formed in 1997. Named after a character from the Japanese children's TV show Ponkickies, the band is also known by the name 69
since "sixnine" can be pronounced "muku" in Japanese. The band has, as of 2009, released nine studio albums, along with several live albums, EPs, singles and DVDs, some of which were also released in Europe.
The band debuted in Europe in August 2005, including performance at Wacken Open Air. Next year, they would perform in the United States for Otakon anime convention in Baltimore, Maryland. They have consistently performed every year in Europe, and returned to the United States for Jrock Revolution in 2007.
Mucc performed on the Taste of Chaos 2008 tour [1], making twenty-six stops across the United States from February to May. After returning to Japan in May, the band performed at the Hide Memorial Summit alongside other famous Japanese rock groups, such as X Japan, Luna Sea and Dir en grey.
In October the Taste of Chaos 2008 came to Europe. MUCC performed in the Netherlands,
Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and the UK.
Mucc performed at The Fillmore New York at Irving Plaza on December 7th, 2008 [2] and the House of Blues in Los Angeles on December 10th [3].
