Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Cosmic fantasy psychelia from this Tokyo trio of trancing organs, heavy basslines, clanging percussion and commanding vocals. Sounding like Gang Gang Dance do Japanese folk or like Far East Family Band reborn in the 21st century."

KUUNATIC was formed in Tokyo in 2016, by 3 female members who have completely different musical and cultural backgrounds.
They explore primitive drumming, pulsing bass lines, atmospheric keyboard sounds with Japanese local instruments. Topping with 3-female vocals, its music makes listeners trip into their ritual translunary land.
Their first EP KUURANDIA was self-released in December 2017, and a single “Roho Ulio Toweka'' was released as a split 7′′ record with CROCODELIA from Taiwanese label MUTNTKND in August 2018. In the following year, the band contributed a song “Dewbow” for French label Akuphone’s Japanese female artists compilation album “Seito” released in March, and toured Europe for the first time, including performances at Raw Power Festival in London, and SuperVliegSuperMouche Fest invBruxelles. Their first EP was also reissued on vinyl by South Korean label Extra Noir in November 2019.
