These guys are amazing. I lived in Japan and the pressure there to conform is intense in a way that is kind of hard to understand if you haven't had much experience with the culture. These guys are really sticking out their necks and letting the freak flag fly. Incredibly creative music. It's no wonder they had to leave Japan to get noticed.
@@magnusgilberg775 I keep seeing that name - what is it, krung....what? Guess I should listen to them next - along with vanishing twin and broadcast and soundcarriers and so many more!
Barely hearing this for the first time, the band feels like exploding galaxies and the drummer is the strands of time that hold them from falling into chaos
as a 63 yr old longhaired hippy partial to altered states, bands like this wrap me in frequencies infused with outward facing positive energy flows in an otherwise drab n dismal nonvibrational wave trough. After becoming totally dialed in across the spectrum, I am then jettisoned upward and outward into the wave of unending probabilty so I might seize this linear instant right *now* , at which point I surrender utterly to its megadimensional embrace and join all of you in the eternal unfolding of the all encompassing creative flow of the bliss of infinite becoming.
Hats off to KEXP! I am simply amazed at their ability to again and again unearth these gems, both local and international. Thanks a lot to the whole team. The work you do is exceptional.
I just got recommended this video, which led me to checking their website.... where I found that they are currently on a final tour and going on "indefinite hiatus" at the end of 2022. They will be back in Seattle in 5 days, and I will be there for sure. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found this now, and not a week from today...
Just listened to house on the tall grass. An amazing album from an amazing band. Glad to hear psychedelic music is getting a resurgence with some modern twists.
Just saw these guys in a tiny, cramped little theater in Arcata, CA. Utterly mind blowing performance! And there must have been 40 or so pedals on that stage!
This band was randomly recommended to me on Facebook telling me they had a show in my city but the show was starting in 15 mins lol kinda wish it was advertised earlier so I could prepare
Saw them open for Khruangbin last Saturday. The lights are all dim and I'm like "There's five guys on stage with effing black wigs like Khruangbin wears, what is this shit?" Lights turn on and it was actually Asians with long black hair. Wild, wild performance. Really good.
Started listening to them a month ago and drove 3 hours from New Hampshire to Burlington to see them last night. Flawless performance. Here they were a little shakier but it's hard to keep so many pedals under control every night.
when listening to that solo around 6:15 on the studio recording... i NEVER realized that was a wah'd sitar. really cool sound. they're music is so uncluttered and full of sound at the same time, love it.
Their new album is amazing! Dripping Sun is probably my favourite song that they've released. Saw them three times last year and definitely recommend everyone checking them out live
I just discovered this band two nights ago, coming from King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard....and holy shit, I LOVE Kikagaku Moyo! I cannot get high enough! I have been listening to nothing else for 48 hours. My soul is flying.
Good, good band. A different sound from what is popular, even on independent scene, and very much appreciated. In some parts, it reminded me something like "East Asia Tinariwen".
Wow thanks, just listened to their track Camo. I'm sure you know of Harsh Toke and maybe Fuzz as well. I haven't seen too many psych bands but on the heavier side seeing Fuzz in a forest was so good. I'll keep my eyes peeled for anyone coming over here in England.
Love Harsh Toke! I'm not familiar w/ Fuzz but going to check them out now. Thanks for the recommendation. That show sounds amazing! Seeing any psych/stoner/metal band in the a forest sounds like the best way to see them!
They're a Ty Segall project, you may like his other stuff too. Yeah man, it was so nice, surrounded by peacocks just strolling around :) Peace and well wishes to you!
Wish they weren't forced to pay to play shows there. The music is so beautiful I hope they continue to go all over the world and spread it including Tokyo:).
@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 There have been since the 1970s - Far East Family Band, High Rise, LSD March, Flower Travellin' Band, Acid Mothers Temple - just to name a few of many.
right on, Mono was a real serious experience my friend! Band says its their fave tour ever. Very emotional. i posted video montreal show /sloburnjo on YT nb. 4 Japanese bands this year! Mono, Acid Mothers Temple, Kikagaku Moyo and Boris! plus so much great psychedelia abounds. cheers.
Love these guys! Japan definitely has some awesome bands, but I can't say I've felt such legit psychedelic vibes from any until now. Never change, Kikagaku Moyo!

Lol... Sadly I know this feeling too..
so true
Same pressure that produces bands like The Boredoms and G.I.S.M. in reaction...
LOL Boredoms would like to have a word. These guys are not the first or the freakiest. Still great stuff though.
What are they saying in lyrics? Which language?
Im a simple man, I clicked when i saw a sitar and a unique band name. Best decision of the year!
Just saw the name and knew it was gonna be good.
I didnt see any sitar on the thumbnail
its always good click new bands man, with this youtube algorithm u cant found anything new and unique
I'm a simple man, I click when I see "live on KEXP"
@@magnusgilberg775 I keep seeing that name - what is it, krung....what? Guess I should listen to them next - along with vanishing twin and broadcast and soundcarriers and so many more!
Their bassist is so awesome.
I second that
I third that
Now on my list of bands to see. At 63 years old, I've seen plenty.
go see them! it's an incredible experience!!
I don't know, what I've been told
You never slow done, never grow old!
They are wonderful to see live. Definitely the best live show I saw in 2019.
Bless that heart of yours old timer
@@tonyrigatoni766 Same here. Great gig.
The spirit of the 60s is strong in them. They have one foot in another dimension.
今年KEXPを知った。センスやばいバンドばっかりでめっちゃハマる。そしたら、日本人なのに知らないバンドがでてきて、逆輸入状態。これまた最高。
Great band, saw them at Gizzfest and was a fan ever since.
Same man was blown away, been following them since then
Gotta love the Gizz!
jizz fest?
I heard about KM from a post by an equipment guy who left KG touring to tour with KM. Gizzard fan here.
Kikagaku Gizzard Of The Moyo Wizzard
@Alex Kingstone probably the best crossover in the history of music
@@syrfrys You obviously haven't seen the Earthless Kikagaku jam then.
@@mistamuthafuka yes sir I have not. I'm going to check that out this very second. Thank you very much.
They're not very similar at all.
Hahaha nice

You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Kikagaku Moyo
nice basslines. I like the bassman

Uhhh, ok?

that was the most pretentious bullshit I have ever read
Well put my guy

One cannot simply hate Kikagaku Moyo
One simply cannot. It's a simple universal constant
Saw them 2 days ago in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
ONE OF THE BEST CONCERTS EVER!
THIS BAND IS GONNA BE HUGE.
Remember my words, they are incredible :)

This band is freaking amazing! And Ryu Kurosawa's sitar looks out of this world...
They’re on the label Beyond Beyond is Beyond and the whole label line up is phenomenal. Its an acid trip waiting to happen
Omfg dude thx
Just listened to house on the tall grass. An amazing album from an amazing band. Glad to hear psychedelic music is getting a resurgence with some modern twists.
This shit is off the charts. Gad damn! That rhythm section is a force and that sitar... One of those live bands though, which is so rare these days.

You really need to watch these guys live to appreciate fully. Unreal.

I'm not jealous at all
i've been avoiding listening to these guys because I purposefully missed their show in town a year ago and here I am i can't resist them
the jam at the end of fluffy kosmisch is amazing and they 100% know it themselves, the looks on their faces say it all
12:55 tree smoke. Oh my god it gets better everytime. I really hope they play this at desert daze
Tree smoke is amazing! I'm addicted to it now.
I haven't heard anything like this in a while. My new favorite band.

Awesome! I just flash backed into my childhood during the 60's and pictured black light neon posters and smelled incense smoke wafting past.✌😎

These cats are smooth like butter, thx for the rockin tunes bros.
Love this from an old hippie
Good, good band. A different sound from what is popular, even on independent scene, and very much appreciated. In some parts, it reminded me something like "East Asia Tinariwen".
Saw them a year ago in june, under the full moon. Wonderful musicians, wonderful people.
Sounds good
Much different but sametime great
Grettings from Mexico
That snare sounds like rainfall
This group jams. 💯
Well, this is probably the greatest kexp live performance in history.
Tinariwen also
ua-cam.com/video/JufdXXG-7oU/v-deo.html i also recommend the boogarians from Brazil if you haven’t seen it!
Check out King Gizzard's flying microtonal banana performance on kexp
I have. I liked their performance of i'm in your mind a bit better though. However, king gizzard always brings a good performance though.
Alton Gün's KEXP session for me. This is still sick though
I would've thought these guys were from California, not Japan. lol. So glad I came across this!
Great tunes, great trousers.
Saw them at The Casbah in San Diego a while ago and get to see them again at Desert Daze, so so cool!
Their clothes are so good
Also like their music!! I feel so lucky to discover this band 😊
kickass as always, these guys can do no wrong. True artists.
After this performance I've created a new playlist for myself called Fav KEXP
Didn't expect to see them here
Saw them open for Earthless in Chicago and they were amazing. Can't stop listening to their new album.
What a line up!
It was a killer show! Jjuujjuu was also on the bill. Definitely worth checking out if you're into Kikagaku and Earthless

No los había escuchado lo suficiente, pero los vi en el Hipnosis 2022 y tomé video, sentí que algo grande estaba pasando en mi vida 🍊
same
En efecto, generan muchas emociones
KEXP is world heritage 🌍❤️✌️
28 minutes of pure happiness... I've just discovered you guys, but for sure, I will look after your productions! Thanks for this moment!
The singer reminds me of Damo Suzuki.
I'm happy you guys are touring and getting lots of new fans but please come back and play some gigs in Tokyo. We miss you here.
Audham EnTha I can’t agree more.
Wish they weren't forced to pay to play shows there. The music is so beautiful I hope they continue to go all over the world and spread it including Tokyo:).

So glad I'm seeing y'all twice in one year. Kikagaku Moyo fucking rules
One of the better performances I've ever seen on KEXP
De mis bandas favoritas y nació tocando en la calle, son lo mejor
Amazing bass work!
Abso-fucking-lutely Brilliant!!!!
Thank God for Remastered Prog/Fusion/Jazz Prodigies!
3 yrs later - damn, that's good!
They are great. Just found them yesterday. I love sound scape music.
Great group. Their own sound. Makin' art, fellas. Good job!!

Total combined bodyweight of this band is 78lbs
yet they hit you with the force of a 2 ton psychedelic train, splat ghost the brain!~
without hair; 32lbs
pretty uncommon for US
@@whoareyoudude2697 - where 78lb is a small snack..? :)
@James Lee I spat out my kombucha
The best japanese psychedelic band evaaaaa!!

Hope I will see them live some time ..

ME ENCANTARON, RIFARON EN EL HIPNOSIS
Espectacular!! como llegue aca.. desde Argentina
Can will be proud!
The drummer is no Jaki Liebezeit!
Apples to oranges aside, they definitely have serious Kraut Rock influence and that last one definitely sounds a lot like Can.
Other people noticed, I'm not crazy
@@Flashahol Yeah, I mean, the last song is called Fluffy Komisch. The Neu! and Can influences are undeniable.
@@rohitchaoji With a German song name like that, there is no doubt at all... thanks for the info!
OMG i love this dudes
I'm seeing MONO on June 2nd in Phoenix! It'll be the 2nd time I've been to their concerts. I'm 66 years young and enjoying life to the full! :-D
right on, Mono was a real serious experience my friend! Band says its their fave tour ever. Very emotional. i posted video montreal show /sloburnjo on YT nb. 4 Japanese bands this year! Mono, Acid Mothers Temple, Kikagaku Moyo and Boris! plus so much great psychedelia abounds. cheers.
Saw them in Philly a few weeks ago. They are true artists. Great show
No way! Never expected to see this.
センスの塊だ
Maaan I LOVE THEM, they took me places, beautiful places in my mind.
flawless performance
Great. make me remember Can tago mago
Son la onda, ya tuve la oportunidad de verlos y los amé.
What a fantastic music trip!
今週末幾何学模様を見た。好きでした！
I just found out about these guys 2 hours ago and want to hear everything I can get my hands on now!!!

Holy fuck, Ive never heard of them before and I see they're coming to my city on December! Thanks KEXP!

Superb Japanese craftmanship here ladies and gentlemen
