Biography

Their band name was inspired by the self given death of japanese author Yukio Mishima who, after a failed coup d’état, committed suicide according to ancient japanese tradition (seppuku or hara kiri ) as a gesture of public protest.
Composed of brothers Cortes namely Alex (guitar/programming) and Willie(vocals/drums/bass/
programming), Seppuku Paradigm was formed in 2005. The pair had already worked together before but not to such an extent.

While Willie released his debut album in 2004 on a major label(WillieCortez’FARSUCT’/Delabel/EMI ),Alex was composing and producing with french collective ’Downliners Sekt’ ( The Pledge EP /Bloom Records) along with appearing live and in studio for Willie’s solo project (live performances included festivals “PRINTEMPS DE BOURGES”, “TRANSMUSICALES” and opening act for BUCK 65 at “Elysée Montmartre” in Paris). Early 2005, they sat down and wrote a couple of songs , which led to more and quite naturally they decided to form the two piece band. Locked in their makeshift studio they started composing and producing songs that, to sum up ,blend post rock inspired tunes and sharp guitars
with aggressive sub bass and computer generated weirdness. Add Willie’s hooks and you get Seppuku Paradigm.
In 2007 SP wrote/produced 3 exclusive songs for Julien Séri ’s latest film ’SCORPION’ (out Feb 21 2007 In France/Out now on DVD).
