Time Out says

Located inside a former movie theatre in Udagawacho, WWW has become a cornerstone of Shibuya’s genre-fluid nightlife since its launch in 2010. Founded by the creative team behind the Tokyo-based label and event collective WWW, the venue was envisioned as a cultural hub that bridges live music, club culture and multimedia art.

The original ground-floor venue offers an intimate setting with a capacity of approximately 250 people. In 2016, WWW expanded by opening WWW X on the second floor of the same building, accommodating around 500. This expansion allowed for a broader range of performances, from indie rock and hip hop to experimental electronic music. 

This venue is noted for its high-quality sound systems, including Funktion One speakers in the basement lounge, WWW B, which caters to techno and alternative electronic music enthusiasts. The programming reflects a commitment to diversity and innovation, with events ranging from local and international gigs to DJ sets and multimedia art installations. This eclectic approach has solidified WWW’s reputation as a vital fixture in Tokyo’s dynamic music scene.

Evil Spa 9

Part gig, part flea market, Spa of Evil is a yearly drop-in for anyone orbiting Tokyo’s punk, noise and chaos-adjacent scenes. A mix of bands, DJs, underground brands and general unhinged energy, the event skips polish in favour of raw attitude. Whether you're there to buy some alternative threads, see someone scream into a mic or just stare at the crowd, Spa of Evil continues to be one of the only places where all that happens at once.
