PSYCHIC FEVER Lights Up the Stage at SUMMER SONIC 2025

On August 16-17, 2025, PSYCHIC FEVER, the seven-member boy band from LDH JAPAN, made their much-anticipated debut at one of the world's most legendary music festivals, SUMMER SONIC. The event, held across two locations—Makuhari Messe in Chiba and Expo '70 Commemorative Park in Osaka—provided the perfect backdrop for a performance that left the audience electrified and craving more.

Since their formation in 2022, PSYCHIC FEVER has dedicated themselves mostly to international endeavors, expertly blending their sound with global influences. Earlier this year, they completed a successful tour of the U.S., exploring six cities and earning accolades that recognize their distinctiveness in the J-pop scene. Forbes U.S. remarked that they do not resemble an ordinary boy band, emphasizing the group's individuality and their unique aesthetic harking back to the hip-hop and R&B crews from the 1990s and 2000s.

During their debut at SUMMER SONIC, many concertgoers were experiencing the band live for the very first time, and PSYCHIC FEVER swiftly captured their attention with a dynamic 11-song set that mesmerized the crowd. Their performance kicked off with the latest single, “Reflection,” merging classic 90s-2000s R&B vibes with atmospheric British DrillnB elements. Instead of starting with a bombastic opener, the group opted for a groove-centric track that established confidence and sophistication while drawing the audience into their captivating world.

A standout moment of the performance was the energetic hit “Just Like Dat feat. JP THE WAVY,” which has garnered over 290 million views on TikTok. The infectious groove, inspired by Miami and Atlanta Bass, resonated profoundly with the audience from its introduction. As the pre-chorus built, spontaneous singing erupted from the crowd, culminating in an exhilarating moment where the entire arena erupted in collective chants of “Just Like Dat!” This electrifying interaction marked an unforgettable connection between the performers and the audience.

The setlist also included the vibrant track “Paradise,” produced specifically for their North American tour earlier this year. Merging 1980s disco influences with the resurgence of city pop in Japan, the track transformed the concert venue into a pulsating dance floor, with fans swaying freely as the group showcased their fluid choreography on stage.

The grand finale was “What's Happenin',” another high-energy track that reflects the Miami/Atlanta Bass genre. This intense anthem highlighted PSYCHIC FEVER's sharp hip-hop sensibilities, providing a powerful close to a spectacular debut at SUMMER SONIC.

PSYCHIC FEVER encapsulates the synergy of its seven distinct personalities, creating a unique chemistry that captivates audiences everywhere. Their unforgettable entrance at SUMMER SONIC 2025 firmly established their influence, both domestically and internationally, and has fans eagerly anticipating their appearances at major global festivals in the future. One thing is for certain—PSYCHIC FEVER is a force that the world has undoubtedly embraced.
