Terebi Tairiku Ondo unleash a jagged burst of post-punk, new wave tension and art-rock unpredictability with the music video for “超常現象を信んじてみる。” (Chōjō Genshō o Shinjite Miru. / “Trying to Believe in Paranormal Phenomena”). Formed in Sapporo, Hokkaido in 2023, the four-piece continues to bend reality and song structure into wonderfully unstable shapes, fusing nervous rhythms, sharp-edged guitar work and surreal lyrical imagery. The track arrives alongside the band’s newly released debut album VS Tairiku Ondo, where its restless energy acts like a transmission from an alternate dimension of Japanese underground rock. Equal parts brain-melting and strangely uplifting, the song finds beauty hidden inside existential static, culminating in a finale that feels like discovering a secret level in a forgotten post-punk arcade machine. The band has also unveiled a new live performance clip for the track, further showcasing the chaotic charisma that has made them one of the most talked-about young acts on the live-house circuit.
