Formed under EXILE TRIBE as part of a new wave of Japanese acts looking far beyond the domestic market, PSYCHIC FEVER have spent the past year steadily cementing their presence in Europe.
From intimate shows in London and Berlin to interactive dance workshops, the seven-member group has shown that high-energy performance culture sits right at the heart of their identity, and they are ready to take the whole world! That international outlook has also translated online, building a dedicated audience drawn to their dynamic blend of pop, hip-hop, and striking visuals.
Four years in the making, their new album DIFFERENT arrives as their most ambitious project to date. Moving seamlessly across Y2K R&B, U.K. garage, Afrobeats, and trap, the record showcases a borderless sonic range that defies conventional expectations. Built around the concept that all seven members—Kokoro, Weesa, Tsurugi, Ryoga, Ren, Jimmy, and Ryushin—bring completely distinct artistic voices and personalities to the table, the album also marks the first time every member contributed directly to the songwriting, helping the group step fully into a mature era.
In our second exclusive interview with the group, we sat down face-to-face to discuss the core inspirations behind DIFFERENT, the creative songwriting process, and what a possible world tour looks like next.
