Japanese metal powerhouse KNOSIS, the visionary project led by renowned multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Ryo Kinoshita, is proud to announce their debut full-length album “GENKNOSIS” due out August 1, 2025 via SharpTone Records.
To celebrate this landmark moment, KNOSIS has unleashed a brand-new single, “SHINMON”, delivering an explosive preview of what’s to come. Packed with emotional weight, blistering riffs, and Ryo’s signature vocal intensity, “SHINMON” stands as a testament to the band’s unrelenting creative force.
This announcement follows KNOSIS’ recent signing to SharpTone Records, marking a new chapter for Ryo Kinoshita—formerly the frontman of genre-defining Japanese metalcore act Crystal Lake.
KNOSIS blends searing metal, visceral hardcore, and introspective soundscapes, capturing the raw emotion and spiritual tension of life’s heaviest moments. Following the powerful debut single “FUHAI” (featuring Yukina of Hanabie), the release of “SHINMON” sets the tone for what promises to be one of the year’s most compelling heavy records.
