{"title":"Kikagaku Moyo Vinyl Records","description":"\u003cp\u003eKikagaku Moyo is a psychedelic rock band from Tokyo, Japan, formed in 2012 by members Go Kurosawa (guitar\/vocals), Kotsu Guy (bass), Tomo Katsurada (guitar\/vocals) and Daoud Popal (drums). Drawing from a range of influences including traditional Japanese music, drone, folk and classical, the band has developed a sound of their own.\r\n\r\nKikagaku Moyo’s debut album, “Mammatus Clouds”, was released in 2013 and was well-received by critics and fans alike. Their second album, “House in the Tall Grass”, was released in 2016 and was an even bigger success, garnering praise from outlets such as Pitchfork and The Guardian. Other standout albums include “Masana Temples” (2018) and “Kikagaku Moyo” (2019).\r\n\r\nKikagaku Moyo has released a number of standout songs over the years, including “Kogarashi”, “Dripping Sun” and “Green Sugar”.\r\n\r\nAn interesting fact about Kikagaku Moyo is that the band’s name translates to “geometric patterns” in Japanese, which is a reference to the band’s psychedelic sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"kikagaku-moyo-house-in-the-tall-grass-58428","title":"Kikagaku Moyo – House in the Tall Grass","description":"\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003e Brand New\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShips from: \u003c\/strong\u003e Melbourne\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n\n\n\n\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRelease details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTracklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs-content\"\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Description tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike a long journey this record unfolds itself through many layers.
