Weaving In Purgatory
Espuma
Japanese Television - Japanese Television doesn’t just play music—they summon it, beaming their sounds straight from a black-lit UFO parked somewhere between 1968 and the heat-death of the universe. Founded by cosmic misfit Tim (guitar) the band got its low-end swagger when Elea (Bass) joined for their debut album. A year ago they expanded their alien frequencies with Riko, who plays organ and taishogoto like he’s channeling ghost transmissions, and Kev, a drumming wizard who hits the skins like they owe him money.
Their instrumentals feel like stumbling into a Dario Argento fever dream, where surf guitars crash into Martian sunsets and everything is just a little too weird to be accidental. Cool because they don’t give a damn about cool, Japanese Television thrives on being the band that doesn’t follow trends—they vaporize them with laser beams.
Fresh off releasing their second album, they’re already cooking up its remix sibling to kick off the year 2025, because why not? The remix album will feature some good old friends from Sweden they went on tour with in 2022…the mighty GOAT.
In 2025, they’ll blitz across West Europe in March and East Europe in June, turning every venue into a retro-futuristic soundscape that smells faintly of ozone and vinyl. Step into their orbit, or get left in the dust, Earthling.
Weaving In Purgatory - We Are All a Puppet of a Happening, Weaving Life’s Moments Into Ritual, Sounds for Divination
Espuma - Espuma blends 90s shoegaze, latin rhythms, and 60s psychedelia into a high-octane performance that leaves fans chanting for more. Their debut EP ‘Carrera Cósmica’ captures the same electric energy that has captivated audiences on stage. Even though they’re a newer band their year has already been exciting – supporting Acid Tongue on their EU tour and playing Seattle’s Freakout festival.
