Founded in 2013, Scattered Purgatory is one of Taiwan's leading experimental bands, known
for blending traditional Taiwanese music with psychedelic and avant-garde sounds. Their
debut album, The Lost Ethnography of the Miscanthus Ocean (2014, on Guruguru Brain), is
recognized as a landmark in Asian psychedelic music, marking the band's distinct style early
on.
From 2015 to 2019, the band performed extensively across Europe and North America,
including notable appearances at Canada's New Forms Festival and the Netherlands' Le
Guess Who, where they received critical acclaim alongside internationally renowned artists.
In response to the global pandemic, Scattered Purgatory adapted by participating in virtual
music festivals such as the UK's NTS Radio and Poland's Unsound, maintaining global fan
engagement through digital performances.
In 2024, the band began work on a new album and performed at two of Taiwan’s biggest
music events —StreetVoice The Next Big Thing and the Megaport Festival —and at SXSW
Sydney in October. In 2025, Scattered Purgatory released a collaboration single, “Diaspora”
with Dis Fig as the trailer to their new album.
In January of 2026, the band will release their comeback album “Post Purgatory”. Shifting
from Earth-inspired, mountain-scale walls of sound to a chiseled digital lucidity—a record
that coolly mirrors a dystopian social climate where downtempo beats collide with doom
metal riffs, contemporary sound design and granular sampling summon a surreal, dark
tropical atmosphere.
