Gipnoza (Russian: гипноза) is the second album by KAKU P-MODEL. It retains the dystopian tone from Vistoron, but has an even colder and harsher sound. The title comes from its story, a continuation of Vistoron's and of the 1996 album CONVEX AND CONCAVE by the P-Model/Devo tribute band PEVO, in which Gipnoza are a strain of reality-distorting nanobots.[1]

Parallel Kozak is the series of concerts that accompany Gipnoza. Susumu Hirasawa and PEVO 1go (alongside an unidentified guest) performed four shows, one a day, from 11 to 14 January 2014 as KAKU P-MODEL, the last of these released on DVD the following year. The Gipnoza album was performed in its entirety, as well as six tracks from Vistoron and the title track of Electronic Tragedy/〜ENOLA, the same songs were performed on all four shows, all with different song orders.[4][5][6][7] Each show got a low quality, single camera angle live broadcast through dedicated Ustream channels. The Parallel Kozak concert does away with many aspects of what became the general Hirasawa concert: A banner with art from the Gipnoza liner notes on the back of the stage instead of a projector screen, white coats and monochromatic striped scarves instead of all black outfits, electric guitars connected to synth effects units instead of laser harps, dynamic microphones on aluminium stands (made by 005Harry/PEVO 5go[8]) instead of headset microphones. The Ashu-on cultivation incubator, last seen in the 2004 Tokyo Vistoron concerts, was placed between the two performers, unusable due to its broken-down state. It marks the third time Akiro "Kamio" Arishima worked with Hirasawa as director, after the "Another Day" PV and the Kamui Mintara documentary.
