A new Japanese psych trio featuring ’90s vets led by the (relatively) new Toshimitsu Akiko. The music moves with a stumbling grace, as if unfolding a folktale through flower pedals and knives. Toshimitsu sings softly with an unkempt twee-pop wonder in songs that undulate from regal singer-songwriter fare to little explosions of fuzz guitar, crashing cymbals and droning accordion. https://www.vikingschoice.org/archive/peruvian-punk-swedish-heavy-metal-japanese-psych/ Lars Gotrich
