Kikagaku Moyo - House in the Tall Grass

With their third album, House in the Tall Grass, Kikagaku Moyo reached a turning point, refining their psychedelic sound into something both expansive and deeply intimate. Recorded after years of busking and touring, it captures the band at their most balanced: meditative yet propulsive, free-flowing yet deliberate.

The opening tracks glide like slow-motion travelogues, where gentle sitar melodies and hushed harmonies guide you forward. “Trad” and “Silver Owl” stretch into dreamlike territory, showing the band’s gift for contrast, where quiet moments bloom into thunderous crescendos, and the line between structure and improvisation blurs completely.

Drawing from Indian classical traditions, krautrock rhythms, and the warm haze of 1970s psych-folk, House in the Tall Grass feels like both a homecoming and a departure. It’s a record that drifts between worlds, the known and the unknown, the seen and the sensed, inviting you to stay awhile inside its glowing field of sound.
