Earlier this year, Electric Eel Shock celebrated their 25th anniversary with a big European tour through the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, France, Germany, Sweden, and Norway. The three-piece garage rock band formed in Tokyo in 1994 and consists of guitarist and vocalist Aki Morimoto, bassist Kazuto Maekawa and drummer Tomoharu Ito. The band comes to Europe quite often and is known for their support from fans, by crowdfunding (through Sellaband) the band could release the album Sugoi Indeed. The band was one of the first bands to embrace crowdfunding, the band is actually called crowdfunding pioneers.

A cropped version of a photo of Shuya Onuki as KAMIKAMIKAMI, but edited in a way that it shows an eerie and mysterious moment. The photo consists of a bright light source, most probably the sun, and the musician who seemed to have taken the photo in a window. The editing is done by Floor Toppets @/fl00r99 on Instagram, and shows blurring and filters, making it an abstract photo.

The photo shows six musicians standing next to each other on a deck near a lake. These musicians are part of the music collective Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O. Most of the members are uniquely dressed in colourful clothing, most probably inspired by psychedelic and retro fashion.
