After wrapping up a successful European tour last summer, experimental progressive rock band Green Milk From The Planet Orange will be returning to Europe in September for an even bigger tour just as autumn kicks off.
The European tour consists of more than 20 shows in 10 countries, including three at festivals, such as Metapalooza Festival in Italy, Festival Les Lunatiques in France, and Desertfest Antwerp in Belgium which is also the end point of the European tour.
Green Milk from the Planet Orange are a band from Tokyo that got formed after the disbanding of psychedelic stoner grind band No Rest for the Dead. Two musicians from that band, A and Dead K decided that they were ready to start something new leading to the creation of Green Milk from the Planet Orange in 2001. There have been several changes in the band line-up in regards to bass players, even Margarette Hiroi (now active in 88Kasyo Junrei) was a bass player for a short while. After a hiatus from 2008 to 2016, Green Milk from the Planet Orange returned with the current line-up of A on drums, Dead K on guitar and Damo on bass. The music they create with this band gets described as an mixture of the music genres progressive rock, psychedelic rock and punk. In 2019, they released their third album, titled appropriately titled Third.
Last year, the band announced that they have remastered their second album CITY CALLS REVOLUTION released in 2005 and is now available as a digital release on Bandcamp, after the album had been out of print for years. In March, the band released a split EP with American psychedelic punk band FUCKWOLF, titled LET’S SPLIT (裂けても), to celebrate the fact that the San Francisco-based band would be touring Japan in March and April which was organised by the band members of Green Milk From The Planet Orange.
