Is it just me or are a ton of Japanese acts heading state-side these days? X Japan rocked Madison Square Garden. Shonen Knife played their 1,000th show in Minnesota. Hatsune Miku was on David Letterman!

We’ll hear from a couple of those bands in this episode along with new music from Avengers In Sci-Fi, and Emi Meyer. Want some additional reading? Check out what The Japan Times has to say about Avengers In Sci-Fi’s latest album, Unknown Tokyo Blues and Emi Meyer’s team-up with guitarist Seiichi Nagai.
