Tokyo's Coolest Sound

4-piece lo-fi garage pop band Kidder Friendly Club (Instagram, Twitter, YouTube) has just released their first album, a concept album titled "Kidder Friendly Airways" full of fun songs that revolve around an imaginary trip to the UK. The song "Missing Milk" is an homage to the milk carton character that shows up in blur's "Coffee & TV" music video, while "A hard day's sightseeing" recalls memories of a visit to Liverpool. A cover of The Libertines' "Up The Bracket" is also included. Check out the music video of "Analog Love" below (an early version from 2018).

Prior to the album, a 7" single of "Analog Love" and non-album B-side "PVC Hell" was also released. It's available at least at the band's online shop.

You can also watch a rehearsal studio performance of a few songs on their YouTube channel.
