about
Formed in Tokyo at the turn of the millennium, "tokyo pinsalocks" are an all-girl three-piece electronic rock band with their ears cocked towards the future. Shunning guitars and instead embracing colourful keyboard, distorted heavy bass grooves and tight drumming, theirs is a new, danceable, exciting sound. They fuse fresh rhythms with the psychedelic vocal stylings of singer/keyboardist Naoko, mashed through vocal filters to create a retro-futuristic new-wave meltdown that's guaranteed to get you moving. Since 2000, tokyo pinsalocks have played innumerable shows around Japan, including Sapporo's revered Rising Sun Rock Festival, and put out two mini-albums and a single before the release of their first full-length, "rhythm channel", in 2005. The album is a joyful collection of popped-up pysch-outs, creating a sound that is all their own, and was released through Tokyo label Hipshake Records. It does grand justice to the band's heroes Kraftwerk, Bjork and Super Junky Monkey. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
