Masana Temples
From the melodic end of the contemporary psychedelia spectrum, Kikagaku Moyo return with their 4th full length album 'Masana Temples'. As I mentioned at the time (here), the Japanese five piece were initially brought to my attention via a passing comment over at TheRobster's place in 2016 and their brilliant 'House in the Tall Grass' LP quickly ended up among my favourites of that year. From the Stereolab-like vibes of 'Majupose' to the melancholic freak-out that is 'Dripping Sun', I've a strong hunch that 'Masana Temples' will occupy a similarly lofty position in my affections come December.

Great to see them featured by you, Swede. I listened to this record many times to during the last days and it still a pleasure. Saw them live last yeara and they are live as good as on their albums .
Oh man Walter, I'm jealous! I'd love to see these guys live.
They tour Europe this November, so you might buy yourself a ticket! I've already got mine.
They're not coming anywhere near me sadly Ramone666. Enjoy the show, I look forward to hearing all about it.
Now that's a shame. I´ll keep you posted.
