New single from the Taiwanese drone-rockers Scattered Purgatory. This one's different from anything else they've done so far - blending elements of metal, trip hop and classical instrumentation. The album is scheduled to be released on January 30, 2026 via Guruguru Brain, and can be pre-ordered here.
Fifth studio album from japanese psych-rockers Kikagaku Moyo. Released on May 6th via brilliant Guruguru Brain, the LP takes us on a trip to imaginary Kumoyo Island, with its landscape represented via various moods and music styles that shape-shift throughout the listening journey. The record feels like a continuation of the vibe showcased on their album "House in the Tall Grass", meaning it's less psychedelic-experimental (well, tracks like "Cardboard Pile" or "Field of Tiger Lillies" may prove me otherwise), and more psychedelic-rock-pop oriented. Made me think of Tonstartssbandht's "Petunia" a bit actually. Great stuff for lazy Sundays, or as the label puts it "best-suited for counting stars, looking at the ocean, and dancing in one’s daydream."
