Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas, often abbreviated as FALILV, is a Japanese electronicore band that has garnered a robust following for their high-energy music that merges elements of electronic dance music with metalcore. The band formed in the summer of 2008 in Kobe, and quickly made a name for themselves with their unique blend of genres, aggressive use of synthesizers, and autotuned vocals. The band's lineup, which has evolved over the years, has consisted of members who handle an array of roles spanning from synthesizers, programming, and vocals, to guitar, bass, and drums. They are known for their animated live performances and distinct visual aesthetic, often characterized by bright, neon colors and cyberpunk influences.

Since their debut, Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas have released a series of albums and singles that showcase their relentless drive to push musical boundaries. Notable tracks like "Cocoon for the Golden Future," "HYPERTOUGHNESS," and "The Gong of Knockout" demonstrate their ability to combine relentless guitar riffs with pulsating electronic beats, creating a sound that is both abrasive and danceable. The band's music often features themes of pushing against adversity and striving for personal evolution, reflected in songs like "Evolve Forward in Hazard" and "Get Back the Hope." Despite the departure of some members and the tragic loss of their keyboardist, Kei, in late 2018, Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas continues to forge ahead, resonating with fans across the globe and cementing their place in the modern metal and electronic music scene.
