From Japan with beads, bells and incense comes Love Psychedelico with (what else?) “This Is Love Psychedelico” (Hacktone, A-). A frisky, frothy co-ed duo, they’ve been twisting my brain inside out with their nimbly shape-shifting, bilingual Japlish lyrics (listen long enough and it makes sense) and super-catchy guitar- and keyboard-buzzing rock, which samples classic flavors from the B-52s to Mott the Hoople to “Money” man Barrett Strong.
The duo has sold four million albums on home turf since 2001; this U.S. introduction represents a “best of” those domestic releases.

Does this mean that there’s going to be an East Coast show soon? ^_^
