Kimonos

Look what I found from chillin' on Twitter. I saw Raspberry Field's vocalist Alice Soy tweeted about this indie Japanese band named Kimonos.

"Kimonos was formed in 2010 by Leo Imai and Shutoku Mukai from Zazen Boys.

Their music is a blend of vintage synths, post-punk riffs, heavy beats, and folk lyricism.
Both cold and passionate, both stoical and decadent, both futuristic and nostalgic, their debut album is a fitting soundtrack to the manic intensity of Tokyo City.
Drummer Greg Saunier from Deerhoof and bassist Ichiro Yoshida from Zazen Boys also make ripping guest appearances on the record."

Here is one of Kimonos music videos, Soundtrack To Murder.
