Welcome to The Avocado’s weekly discussion of Japanese pop culture! I’m really excited to share this video today, and not just because it’s &TEAM. I mean, yes, that’s the reason, but this specific video is exciting to me because it features two songs from their Rock in Japan Fes. appearance this year. I’ve been hoping they’d release some of this because (in the photos) they looked like they were having so much fun. And it’s always a treat when they perform with a live band. As a bonus, the first song is one of my absolute favorites!

Oh, and get excited, because they’re releasing a Japanese version of “Back to Life” this weekend!!!

And, as always…

What have you been watching/reading/playing/eating/listening to lately?

Happy Wednesday! 🍙
