Junko is a Japanese musician, who has been involved in the international noise scene since the mid 1980s both as a solo artist (since 2002), as part of a series of collaborations as well as a member of the seminal group Hijokaidan, which combined extreme performance art with free improvisation noise oriented sound. Junko is especially known for her high-pitched shriek.
