The wait for some new material from The Japanese Popstars has been torturous because of there constant touring. But now we have the new live album out today that has some new bombs and classics from the first album. Here's the official press release:
THE SUNDAY TIMES: “DANCE MUSIC DARLINGS”
NME:“CROWD-PLEASING ORB-MEETS-KRAFTWERK ANTHEMS...PULSATING PRODIGY AGGRESSION... IT’S TIME TO GET THE PILLS IN”.
MIXMAG: “THE MOST EXCITING NEW ELECTRONIC ACT ON THE PLANET”
POPJUSTICE: “F*CKING AMAZING”
THE GUARDIAN: “PICK OF THE WEEK: TOTALLY STUPENDOUS MECHANICAL POP MUSIC”
From the Nerve Centre Derry to Fuji Rock Japan….
52 weeks, 220 Shows, over 500,000 people, 135,000 air miles, 4 continents, 30 festivals, too much airport food, 1 smashed keyboard, 13 broken leads, (only) 2 blown monitors, 1 missed flight, and more laughs than you can imagine.
‘We Just Are: Live’ was recorded from The Japanese Popstars 2008/2009 WE JUST ARE tour that saw the Northern Irish trio deliver their sound (quite literally) to the planet.
Well on their way to becoming Britain’s hottest live dance outfit, Decky, Gary, and Gareth have hammered soundsystems this summer at Glastonbury, Glade, Rockness, Oxegen, Fuji Rock, Planet Love (supporting The Prodigy), and numerous other summer festivals.
They exploded onto the scene in 2008, with a debut album that received heavy praise from The Guardian, Word, Artrocker, NME, Clash, Popjustice, Mixmag, DJ, Radio 1, XFM, and many more, with critics hailing them as the rightful heirs to Underworld, the Chemical Brothers, and Orbital. Remixes for Depeche Mode, Beyonce, Grand National, Ting Tings, Shinichi Osawa, The Music, Groove Armada, and others - came thick and fast.
