Last May, the band Green Milk From The Planet Orange completed an extensive tour across Europe, but at the beginning of the new year, the experimental progressive rock band from Tokyo will return for another month-long European tour. The band will play 27 shows in 11 countries, celebrating their 25th anniversary. The Netherlands and Belgium will not be skipped during Green Milk From The Planet Orange’s upcoming European tour, as several shows are planned, including Nijmegen, Tilburg, Maastricht, Leffinge, Brussels and the tour finale in The Hague.
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 is described as a mixture of progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and punk genres.
They released their third album, titled appropriately Third, in 2019. In 2023, the band announced that they had remastered their second album CITY CALLS REVOLUTION, released in 2005 and it is now available as a digital release on Bandcamp, after the album had been out of print for years. In 2024, 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 that same year, which was organised by the band members of Green Milk From The Planet Orange. This release appeared on vinyl this year and remarkably contains only one track from Green Milk From The Planet Orange, while FUCKWOLF is represented with six tracks. However, the track from Green Milk From The Planet Orange is a live recording of over 19 minutes. During their most recent European tour, they sold a single entitled Tragedy Overground, which was reviewed last summer.
