Meet Tokyo Taboo’s Laura and Mike, throwing hyperactive pop rock at you with tongue in cheek lyrics and blazing melodic hooks. After months of conception on June 9th their newborn baby “Porno Star” will pop out.
“Porno Star” is an upbeat, synth rock driven EP with high energy and anthemic hooks. Produced and arranged by Stereophonics’ producer/co-writer Jim Lowe, “Porno Star” showcases Tokyo Taboo at their very best, exploring themes of sex, freedom and… more sex.
London based Tokyo Taboo blasted to earth in 2013 with the release of their pure pop debut EP “Naked” produced in Los Angeles by Adam Moseley (The Cure, Transvision Vamp and Roxette) This visit to the US of A started off their American dream love affair, in particular with L.A., they found themselves playing live at The Viper Room, Whisky a Go Go and then flying onto N.Y.C to perform at CMJ Music Marathon.
Tokyo Taboo’s “L.A Love” video shows off their high energy performance and colourful visuals. The buzzing euphoria of La La Land as a backdrop acts to heighten Tokyo Taboo’s rainbow energy as the band dance on rooftops Downtown, spin in circles on top of the Hollywood sign and race down the board walk of Venice Beach.
Speaking of “L.A Love”, Tokyo Taboo said: “In L.A. anything is possible and that’s the energy we wanted to capture. We hope you fall in love with L.A in our four minute mania.”
Tokyo Taboo will be hosting a “Porn Star” EP launch night at Cargo in London with Veronika Vesper, Furykane and Oh Dear Vegas with free goody bags for the first one hundred through the door. All the deets are on their website.
