“To peel away the layers and explain what’s so much fun about the group’s particular and peculiar brand of rock ‘n’ roll is like trying to explain why an ice cream cone or air-conditioned room are refreshing on a hot summer’s day. ” – PopMatters on “You Have Nice Tee Shirts” by Peelander-Z

Peelander-Z – the Japanese Action Comic Punk Band – will launch a month-long tour on April 11th in support of its ninth album Go PZ Go, out now on Chicken Ranch Records. See above for full itinerary. To celebrate, the band has released a new music video for the song “You Have Nice Tee Shirts,” directed by Toto Miranda, drummer for fellow Austin-based band (and longtime friends of Peelander-Z), The Octopus Project. The video can be seen now at PopMatters. “You Have Nice Tee Shirts” is taken from the new Peelander-Z album Go PZ Go which follows-up its 2014 full-length hair metal tribute album Metalander-Z.

In addition to the video for “You Have Nice Tee Shirts,” Peelander-Z has also issued videos for “Bike Bike Bike” (also directed by Miranda), and the animated clip for “Go PZ Go / Yeah Yeah Yeah,” directed by comedy writer, director, and animator, Jimbo Matison. The video “done solely with paper and pencils” was recently premiered via Yahoo! Entertainment which also called the clip “fun and stunning.”

Go PZ Go is not only the follow-up to Peelander-Z’s 2014 album; it comes on the heels of a much heralded documentary about the band “Mad Tiger.” The film, directed by Jonathan Yi and Michael Haertlein, was acquired by Film Movement after a successful festival circuit run following its premiere at New York’s IFC Center during DOC NYC. “Mad Tiger” ultimately went on to a nationwide theatrical release and can now be seen via Netflix.

Now, with Go PZ Go, the band also delivers its most listenable album, one that doesn’t merely act as a fun souvenir and reminder of the memorable experiences that Peelander-Z brings in its live performances. In fact, Go PZ Go is an addictive record all on its own that will appeal to any true punk rocker – young (the fans that Peelander-Z regularly calls up on stage to take over their instruments) and old (those who may only have the stamina to put headphones on in the comfort of their living rooms.)

Go PZ Go, the ninth full-length album by Peelander-Z, is out now via Chicken Ranch Records. Members of Peelander-Z are available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom at Fanatic for more information.
