Guruguru Brain is the record label started by Kikagaku Moyo’s members in Amsterdam, and apart from releasing the band’s own records they’ve done a great job of promoting psychedelic bands from Asia. After great records by Tengger (South Korea) and Sundays & Cybele (Japan) they’ve found an amazing group from Thailand. They’re called Strange Brew in Thai, which may be spelt Khana Bierbood in Western writing. The seven-track mini-LP Strangers From the Far East came out in January and is unfortunately sold out, but we can always hope for a repress. The sound is a heavily compressed mix of 12-string jangle, psychedelic fuzz and blown-out vocals in Thai.
