Eureka Entertainment have announced the June UK Blu-ray and DVD release of Sion Sono’s Tokyo Tribe, the world’s first “battle-rap musical".

Just when you thought Sion Sono’s (Love Exposure, Cold Fish, Why Don't You Play in Hell?) unique brand of subversive cinema couldn’t get any more out there, he’s back to explode expectations once again as he ventures even further into uncharted cinematic territory with an ingenious hybrid of Yakuza gang-action and hip-hop musical.

In a futuristic, alternate-world Tokyo, the city is made up of ghetto slums and nightclub playgrounds where gangs of wayward youths rule the streets. The city is carved up into 'hoods, and the crossing of territorial lines quickly leads to riots and rumbles. On the turf ruled by the savage yakuza Big Buppa, the simmering tension is about to boil over into all-out war. Who will emerge victorious? Territory, friendship, pride, love... Everything is put on the line in a desperate struggle for supremacy!

Based on a popular Manga series (Tokyo Tribe 2 by Santa Inoue) and told almost entirely in rap verse (by some of Japan's leading hip-hop talent), Tokyo Tribe has to be seen to be believed. The aggressive assault of the beats and rhymes wreaks havoc as a massive ensemble cast shocks, excites, and incites an unparalleled sonic war!

Tokyo Tribe will be released on UK Blu-ray and DVD on 15th June 2015 at the RRP of £14.99 for the Blu-ray and £12.99 for the DVD.

Special features will include:

• Feature-length behind-the-scenes documentary

• Deleted scenes

• Trailer

• Limited edition collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the film by critic Aaron Hillis along with behind-the-scenes photography
