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.

The Japanese Popstars’ live gigs have seen them tear up stages at Glastonbury, Fabric, Wireless, Oxegen, Matter, Warehouse Project, and countless others. Their tours have taken them across the UK, Australia, Japan, and beyond, supporting the likes of Justice and Basement Jaxx, and cementing a reputation for a blistering live set.

‘We Just Are: Live” features live versions of tracks from their debut album, plus new tracks including ‘Rushed Jabb’, ‘Catapult’, and ‘Kid Roppongi’.
