the Japanese four-piece’s follow-up to 2018’s ‘pink’ is a riotous salvo of frenetic garage pop that fans of deerhoof and pom poko should check out.

CHAI may worship at the altar of kawaii - their homeland’s culture of cute– but they’re not about to be pushed around by anyone. “’PUNK’ for us, of course, is not the genre of music,” say the band. “‘PUNK’ to us is to overturn the worn-out values associated with ‘kawaii’ or ‘cute’ created up until this point. ‘PUNK’ is a word that expresses a strong sense of self. To be yourself more, to become the person you truly want to be, to believe in yourself in every instance!” First single ‘Fashionista’ is a rebellious demand for self-acceptance in the face of society’s pressures.  At the core of their music is the concept of “Neo-Kawaii”.
