Add Japancakes to the list of instrumental bands trying their hand, and successfully at that, at incorporating vocals into their music during the month of July. Yes, Japancakes join The Octopus Project as such, featuring Orenda Fink on vocals in their epic track “Behind The Mountains”. The video features seven women fronted by Orenda Fink herself, all decorated in sparkles and colors. The effect, backed by Japancakes signature southern-sounding shoegaze, is actually a bit eerie. But boy is it good!

“Behind The Mountains” was directed by Ryan Berg and can be found on Behind The Mountains EP, out now on iTunes.
