<b>International customers:</b><br />
On January 26, 2016, the U.S. postal service not only increased postage rates again, the way they price it has also changed. Simple but odd and expensive. Here are some examples;<br />
<br />
'First-Class International Service' (to most European countries);<br />
<br />
(Weight / Ounces) (Postage)<br />
1 ~ 8 oz. - $13.50<br />
9 ~ 32 oz. - $22.50<br />
33 ~ 48 oz. - $34.50<br />
49 ~ 64 oz. - $49.50<br />
<br />
'First-Class International Service' (to Canada);<br />
<br />
(Weight / Ounces) (Postage)<br />
1 ~ 8 oz. - $9.50<br />
9 ~ 32 oz. - $15.50<br />
33 ~ 48 oz. - $24.50<br />
49 ~ 64 oz. - $36.50<br />
<br />
This basically means that it costs you $13.50 (to Europe) no matter how light the package is if it's under 8 ounces. You get a better deal on the heavier package, like, a 8-ounce package with the postage cost of $13.50 compared to $22.50 for a 32-ounce package or $34.50 for a 48-ounce package.<br />
<br />
<u>Approximate</u> weight of a single item just to give you rough ideas;<br />
<br />
1 x 7" EP = 2 ~ 3 oz.<br />
1 x 7" Flexi = 1 oz.<br />
1 x LP = 9 ~ 10 oz.<br />
1 x CD (w/ jewel case) = 4 oz.<br />
1 x CD (w/o jewel case) = 1 oz.<br />
1 x Cassette = 3 oz.<br />
1 x VHS (w/ clamshell case) = 10 oz.<br />
<br />
Obviously, the weight varies depending on the item(s). Plus, the packing materials such as cardboard mailer, bubble envelope etc add extra weight.<br />
This whole current USPS postage shit sucks major ass, I know....HC BEAVERhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15415116443068406215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334894047583216204.post-60846554240596738342016-04-25T00:22:00.000-05:002016-06-16T17:50:42.351-05:00LIST (APRIL 25, 2016)<i><b><br /></b></i>

Portugal. This and their Yugoslavian released split LP with
Brainstorm, which also was pressed in a small quantity, are
probably the hardest to find B.O.D. records but it seems this LP
is seen for sale less often than the other.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The comes changed the name to Virgin Rocks several
months after the "Power Never Die" 12" was released in March '86, on
Captain/Dear Records.
All the Virgin Rocks members except the drummer were the same as the
"Power Never Die" recording lineup. The drummer was replaced to Tetsu
M.(ex-Ghoul, and F.O.A.D. as well?) from Matsumura. Matsumura was an
early drummer of The Comes until he left the band to join Gastunk in
'84, which he left a year after joined back to play in The Comes again
from '85 until '87. Around '90, he once again got together with Chitose
to form The Wretched. Now..., by looking at the fact he was frantically(?)
chasing Chitose's ass over the years, I suppose one can easily assume that he was actually far more
interested in banging her than playing in the bands! Anyways, the music
style played by Virgin Rocks is pretty much in the vein of The Comes
from their "Power Never Die" era, powerful metal-punk with the obvious
Plasmatics influences. Chitose was very much into Wendy O. Williams and
Motörhead. But the late Comes and Virgin Rocks were way better than The
Plasmatics! If you dig that metal-punk style they did on "Power Never Die" like I
do, you probably will like Virgin Rocks as well. If that wasn't your cup of tea, well, then you won't like this EP.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Ultra-rare official CD from 1989. It was
released on a major label(!) and for some unknown reason went out

Party), with an outtake track "Merciless Game" from the same
recording session that was omitted from the actual flexi release.
Also included on this CD are the "Contempt For The Authority And
Take Off The Lie" 7" EP('85, Confuse Rec.) and tracks off the
"Jisatsu Omnibus" 8"('84, Jisatsu Label), as well as the mega-rare
"Neo?" LP('88, Portrait Rec.) The "Neo?" LP is an obscure Kyushu
punk/wave compilation on Portrait Records(a label ran by Shinya Oé
of The Roosters!) that contains a Confuse track recorded in May
1988, a year before the "Stupid Life" tracks were recorded! Even just this "Neo?" comp material alone makes this CD something special. And, the sound quality and everything is excellent, too.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">A bit less known but another great band from
Kyushu(Nagasaki, where The S.C.U.M. is also from) that shouldn't be missed out. Not exactly in the "typical" noisecore style that the Kyushu punk bands from this era are most famous for, but still AWESOME noisy, loud, and
chaotic hc/punk!!!! Self-released by the band in '86. Contains three tracks. The first two tracks on this flexi sound kinda noisecore-ish
and the last song is in The Swankys vein. Would recommend this for those into The Swankys(early and late), Gai, Gess, The S.C.U.M., No Cut, Last Child, Chaos CH,
Dust Noise, Expose, and the King's World and Violent Party related bands from the mid~late '80s. Listen to the songs here: </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy3i_2uoxbc">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy3i_2uoxbc</a><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The singer Ryuji used to be in the legendary
bands Disarray and Bitousha in Sendai back in the '80s. He was
also the singer for Mino-5, with Chelsea(Deathside/Paintbox) and
Katsuta(Tetsu-Arrey/Extinct Government), and put out the CD on
Selfish Records and appeared on the "Enjoy Your Youth..." comp LP.
The guitarist and bassist were/are in Sekinin-Tenka,
Bradbury(G-Zet), Idiot Idolaters, Laughin' Nose, The Pogo, Kenzi
etc. As you can imagine from their background, these guys know
what they're doing and you can expect some quality HC from
Dessert. Very traditional sounding Japcore that's similar to the
Burning Spirits styled bands ala Death Side, Judgement, Crude,
Nightmare, Warhead or Forward. Awesome throaty vocals by Ryuji and
that solid metallic guitar riffs. They did a great Disarray cover
song on the CD version of this release. This 4-track EP is a
totally raging, heavy-hitting HC smasher. The vinyl and the
packaging look amazingly nice, too. Must have been quite costly to
make these. It's on a clear vinyl with some clear pink mixed.
Comes in a glossy perforated package/sleeve. It's an unopened, old
stock promo copy.</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">A "sample" sticker

Japan, Insert, (Violent Party No.?) - $75</strike><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Here's the original Gai tape on Violent Party,
the real deal. "Violent Party" isn't actually indicated anywhere, but
it is in fact the V.P. release, as stated in the zine review and the ad
when the tape came out in the late '85 or early '86. The sleeve
spine says "History Of GAI!". Compiles the 18 previously
unreleased, various studio demo tracks dated from Nov. '81 to Sep. '85.
This came out around the time "The Very Best Of Hero..." LP was
released, shortly after Gai switched the name back to The Swankys.(The
band originally started as The Swankys in '81,
then had to change the name to Gai in May '83 due to being banned
by
the local venues.) This particular copy is complete with the
original "Swankys History!" double-sided insert. I've had and sold
another one of the same tape in the past, but with an insert appeared to
be a photocopy. This one here is 100% original. Looks quite old and has
some aging spots and discoloration. The cassette itself is the crappy
"CVS/Echo" brand(manuf. by Echo Sonic, Japan), black cassette with a
blue/white label on both sides. There are several different types of the
blank tape used by Gai and the V.P. related bands for their tape
releases, and this seems to be is one of the common ones. There's one
song called "Yes!! Future" that's unlisted(the last track of Side B) in a
track listing on the sleeve, but on the insert it is listed. Only 10
out of these 18 tracks from this tape were later officially rereleased
as the "Total Control" CD by Anarchy Centre Records in '97, but oddly
nearly half the tracks unincluded for some unknown reason. Weird.</span><br />

PVC sleeve, (New/Unplayed), (NKO-1) - $35</strike><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Here's a powerful 6-track smasher by Gewalt.
An absolute, cock-exploding Japanese HC fistfuck in your face! No
wimpy bullshit here. Like the band name says it all(G</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">ewalt = violence, power, or force or something like that? in German), this
is extremely heavy, juicy and fast, metallic Japcore style that's
comparable to the Burning Spirits type of bands, but Gewalt played
their songs much faster and heavier. The fucking evil-sounding,
gruff vocals are sick. This self-released, nice little
piece o' picture disc EP </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">contains six blistering tunes of brutal
hardcore ass-fucking. Think of a cross between the traditional
Burning Spirits style HC mixed with good ol' metallic Japcore ala
Ghoul, Rapes, Zouo, Demolition or Dilenma. This criminal
motherfucker, Shura Fujimoto, the singer for Gewalt is a
pretty well-known douchebag in the Kansai area HC scene. He's been associated with a bunch of other
like-minded shady thugs from the area, like the dudes from Rapes,
N*ghtmare, Warhe*d, Danse Ma*abre, SAAG(ex-Crusty Hi Ch*rge),
R.O.M., Dil*nma and all that musically creative folks, despite
their obvious, nasty criminal background.(</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Pitty to the innocent Osaka
crusties getting viciously bullied(no shit!) by some of them(i.e.
Shintani) back in the Final Noise Attack days. Amen! </span>I
think Shura even did the vocals for Danse Macabre a couple times when
Cherry was still behind the bars for 9 years. Now since Cherry's out and free
that he and Shura got together in their current band called
S.H.I.(However, Shura just fucks around with some kinda weird
noise sampling machine or some shit, and Cherry seems to be too
busy coming up with ideas to cash in on more useless crap like the
official Zouo cell phone cover a.k.a. piece o' plastic shit! And, sell 'em for like 30 bucks a piece?? WTF?! This
guy needs a massive bukkake cumshot on his pretty hardcore face,
boooooooo!) This is a brand new mint copy that's been forgotten
and sitting in my record box for years. Everything looks spanking
clean. God Save Sasha Grey.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Nagoya-based crust band consisted of the guitarist of Result, and the early Order member on vocals. This band is completely underrated and sadly overlooked. The music is some solid, crusty metallic HC with male/female dual vocals, in the vein of Nausea, Detestation, Reality Crisis, Antischism, Hiatus or Amebix. I bet these guys were hugely inspired by a lot of the '80s~'90s U.K. and U.S. anarcho hardcore/crust bands. The U.K. edition of this EP was also released, on Destroy Records. This one here is the harder to find, original Japanese pressing. It's really, really good, actually.</span><br />

They're on the great "Target Dictator" comp CD(w/ So What, Innocents, Disclaim etc.), put out by the Disclaim singer's label, Fight Men Records, in '91. The band also released a 7-track 3" CD that I haven't had a chance to hear. The CD was released by Crazy SKB(Kyoaku-Kyojindan)'s Satsugai-Enka Vinyl label.

Don't know which guy, but I know one of the other members was in early RoseRose.

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Great 2nd EP by one of the most well known
all-female punk bands in Japan. Their later releases sound poppier
and aren't that exciting but the first two EP's are awesome! What
you get on this EP is speedy and high-energy punk that's similar
to the Nurse flexi, Typhus '80 demo(w/ female vox), or Chu-Doku
flexi. Guest chorus by the members from Lip Cream, Bradbury(G-Zet), and
Laughin' Nose. Kyaah used to play gigs often with Nurse, Gas and
The Comes. The interesting thing is that when they changed the
singer prior to this EP release, Chitose(The Comes) was gonna join
the band however it never happened(too bad!). Complete copy with
an insert and a red sticker which is actually part of the sleeve

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Rare, self-released 1st EP with the original

Kanon, ex-G.I.S.M./Front Guerrilla) on guitar, Bear Bomb(Final
Bombs, ex-Ghoul) on bass, and Misa(ex-Kyaah/Rap/Geizz/Final Bombs)
on drums. This is their only release with Loony on vocals. Their
later releases, the "Retro Firing" EP('86) and the "S/T" 12"('87)
on Selfish Records were recorded with the second singer Bondage,
who later formed the great band called Grave New World, with the
Crow singer and the Asbestos drummer in the early '90s, also
played in Death Comes Along and I believe currently plays the
guitar in the Crow singer's another band called Kaiboushitsu.(</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Stalin & ADK
inspired punk. </span>Their LP is awesome, by the way! It's
like their answer to The Stalin's "Mushi" album) After Bondage
left Last Bomb, they changed the music style to much more in the
vein of the late Discharge style metallic HC and also changed the
name to Final Bombs in the late '80s, with Bear Bomb on
vocals/bass, Misa on drums, and a new guitarist named Yabu.</span><br />

- King's World, 1986, Japan, (K.K002MA) - $20</strike><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Unlike many other Kyushu based bands from the
mid '80s played noisecore and more chaotic sounding HC, Mess(in
their early days) played some really good, rough and
straight-forward, in-your-face HC that reminds me of the "Fuck
Heads" era, early Gauze. That's what they sound like on this 1st
flexi. They later moved to Tokyo in the late '80s and put out the
8" EP and also appeared on the "Get Back The Discharged Arrow"
comp LP(w/ Acid, Crück & Mad Conflux) on Selfish Records in
'89. Can't remember what they sounded like on those two releases
but I think they were in more like typical, traditional Japcore
style. They later changed their music style and released the
full-length CD on Selfish Records in '91 and the LP on Bloodsucker
Records in '99. Those two are in a quite different style than
their earlier releases. This band is probably more known for the
8" EP and the comp LP tracks, but I think this flexi is much
better. All the songs on this flexi are speedy and somewhat
primitive, yet powerful. It's one of the earliest King's World
Records releases.</span><br />

Contains six filthy trax including the song titles like "Noise Never Die!" or "The Fuck Song" and a crappy version of the Gai/Swankys cover song "Little Star". This was self-released on the band's own label called Beer City, not to be confused with the U.S. label with the same name. These guys also released the "Control Noise" tape on their other label called Damaging Noise. As it says "Some copies came with a pair of 3D glasses." on Discogs, this copy is complete with a bonus 3D glasses.(Why...?!?! </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Some sort of a nonsense joke, perhaps?</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">) I have no fucking clue what the 3D glasses have to do with this record, but I see on the back sleeve there's a weird photo of a bunch of guys wearing the similar glasses, and inside the sleeve there's a 3D artwork(?). </span><br />

Silk-screened sleeve, Insert & 16-page booklet, (No Cat. #) -
$78<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The first and only full-length LP by this
amazing Japanese crustcore band featuring the singer from C.F.D.L.
The guitarist later went on to form Muga. Self-released on the
ban'd own label. This LP is one of the best '90s Japanese crust
releases in my opinion. It's way better than the "I Can Go Die" 7"
that came out a few years prior to this. Dark, metallic, and
dramatic crustcore at its best. This is one killer record that
shouldn't be missed out on. Nice silver "grim reaper" artwork
printed on a black textured paper sleeve. Very rare!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The first and probably the best work done by this Osaka-based band consisted of Naoto(S.O.B.) on vocals, Motsu(Outo, Chicken Bowels & Half Years) on guitar, Mitchun(Outo) on bass and Taku(Crow) on drums. Formed in the late '80s. Yes, their later releases are pretty lame, I must admit that... I guess they played HC only up to the split EP('91) with Filthkick, when they still had the original line-up. I remember not liking their 1st album on Selfish Records so much when it first came out in the late '92. It still sounded HC but was kinda weird, I think. An unplayed, mint stock copy. (P.S.) If anybody wants to either sell or trade a ltd. promo/hard vinyl edition of this flexi, lemme know! I know the promo copies exist like the ones made for the S.O.B./Napalm Death split flexi.</span></div>

<b>SA</b> "Youth On Your Feet" CD - Submission, 1999, Japan, Obi, (SUBM-001) - $20<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This self-released CD contains the tracks off the "Oi Of Japan" comp LP(AA Records, '85), a previously unreleased demo track "No Name"('84), a live track "Confound It"('86) and the '99 re-recorded version of their classic tune "Youth On Your Feet". The '99 track is from their first recording session/studio demo that was recorded right after SA got reformed in the late '90s, when they still didn't have the permanent band members. Jun Gray(ex-Sekinintenka, Bitousha, Bradbury & Kenzi) from Dessert plays the bass on this recording. I have no clue who the other two guys are. I think this '99 version sounds way cooler than the original "Oi Of Japan" version. Although the recording is pretty rough, the rerecorded version sounds much faster, rawer and more powerful. The best thing about this CD is those unreleased demo and live tracks you won't find anywhere else. The studio version of "Confound It" originally appeared on the amazing "I Get Position" 8" flexi in '85! If you've never heard that classic flexi, you're missing out something!!! I don't remember which songs but you can hear one or two tracks off this flexi on the "Nagasaki Nightrider" boot comp LP that came out in the '90s.</span><br />

(暴力中毒) 7" flexi - FEI, 1986, Japan,
White sleeve ver., (FEI-89028) - $170</strike><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><br />
</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Brilliant '80s Kyushu HC gem here. A very rare flexi by The S.C.U.M.!!(originally called Acid, no relation to the well-known Tokyo band with the same name) This band is in the more obscure side, but the music is top notch. Their
band history is a bit unclear to me. As far as I know they were
originally from Nagasaki(where Desperate Children is also from) in
Kyushu, then relocated to Tokyo at some point, and I think, went back to
Kyushu afterwards. Their awesome CD called "Chudoku-Kanjya" was
released around 1990, definitely when the band was based in Hakata,
Kyushu. That's what their contact address says on it. By the way, a
short band interview is printed inside the CD booklet, where the singer
mentions The Swankys(early) as their biggest influence. One source tells
me that the members of the original S.C.U.M. from Nagasaki, Kyushu
splitted into two forms, however both continued to keep the band name,
so there actually were two bands with the same name 'The S.C.U.M.' that
originated from the same one band. This info is likely accurate. In that
case, I can assume one of The S.C.U.M.'s relocated to Tokyo after the
band was splitted into two forms. The flexi came out while they were
active in Tokyo, as I can see it in the contact address printed on the
sleeve. Also, I know for sure that the one that released this flexi and
the one later released the CD are the same, not the other S.C.U.M. that
stayed in Kyushu. It's kind of confusing, I know. Other than these two
releases, The S.C.U.M. put out the two demo tapes around 1988, and I'm
pretty positive those demos were done by the other one that didn't move
to Tokyo. Technically the same band, I suppose. Those two demos were
later compiled in one and released by King's World Records, on the
pro-copies cassette(in an oversized hard box package) entitled
"Inconstant"(Hardcore Box Tape) sometime in the early '90. It's listed
in the King's World Records discography page here: </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><a href="http://www.geocities.co.jp/radiodaze76/inds0kings.htm">http://www.geocities.co.jp/radiodaze76/inds0kings.htm</a></span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> </span><i><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">(</span><span style="color: red;">Translation:</span></i><i> </i><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><i>暴力中毒 </i><i>(Bouryoku-Chudoku)

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Super-rare 1st flexi by the
'80s Sendai city HC/Punk legend. This was self-released on the
band's own Muzihi label in <u>1982(Recorded in Nov. '81), not
1985</u> as incorrectly stated on Discogs and some online resources. Came out prior to
their "ADK Omnibus Vol.1" appearance in 1983, and the "In The
Shadow" 2nd 8" flexi was release in 1984. Apparently, Muzihi later became Chicken Shit Records that's known for the
Disarray release. I always thought Chicken Shit was a label ran by
one of the Disarray members, but I guess I was wrong!(See this
site: </span><a href="http://www.geocities.jp/radiodaze76/inds0csr.htm">http://www.geocities.jp/radiodaze76/inds0csr.htm</a><span style="color: #ff99ff;">)</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">Anyways, this
flexi is soooooo fucking goooooood!! And, yes, very rare and sought-after as well. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Only contains two tracks but
both songs sound VERY similar to The Stalin. If you've never
listened to early Sekinintenka and hearing these songs the first
time, the first thing that will occur your mind would be, like
"Wait a second... Haven't I heard this on "Trash" or "Stop Jap",
or isn't this "Niku"...?!?!"</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">......
Yeah, that's exactly what came to my mind. The first track
"Alkali" even starts with the lyrics goes like </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">"Ore wa...", which are exactly
the same as the beginning of the "Niku" lyrics. Sort of like their homage </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">to The Stalin, perhaps?? </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The recording on
this flexi is quite raw, which makes it even cooler to listen to.
So, these tracks were recorded in Nov. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">1981, and that
makes it their earliest studio recorded material unless they did a
demo or something prior to this that I'm not aware of. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">In 1985,
after the band was already broken up they put out the LP called
"Good Luck", which compiled their previously unreleased studio and
live materials from 1981~1984. There are two tracks on this
LP("Alkali eki" & "Panic"), </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">that I believe are from the same
recording session as the two tracks from this flexi.(T</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">he
outtake recordings?) Also, three live tracks("Barricade", "Noise" & "Dance") which </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">are dated even earlier, June 1981. The
official "1981-1984" discography CD that compiles all of their
records including the "ADK Omnibus Vol.1" tracks came out a few
years ago. T</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">here's also a split demo(or live?) tape
with Disarray, entitled "Gyakusatsu"(= massacre, genocide), that
came out sometime around 1983 exists but I haven't had a chance to
hear it. Shortly after Sekinintenka broke up in 1984, the bassist
Jun Gray(who also played in Bitousuha!) and the hot chick, </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Hiromi(Bitousha) moved
to Tokyo to join G-Zet.(C</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">hanged the name to Bradbury around </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">the same
time they joined) This bassist went on to play in Kenzi, then Bad
Messiah, and</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> the Sendai HC all-star band called Dessert!(w/ Ryuji
from Disarray and Kasuga from Disarray/Idiot Idolaters) Both the flexi and sleeve are in a great condition!!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Michiro's first solo release after The Stalin. This came out right after the band broke up, but t</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">he songs
were actually recorded while The Stalin was still </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">active and the
recording members include the guitarist </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Ono(</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">ex-Allergy) from the last lineup of The Stalin. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Some of the tracks on this 12" are
re-recorded version of the unreleased songs by The Stalin</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">, such as this </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">great punk rock tune called "The Stalin"(a.k.a. "Never Mind The
Bollocks", doesn't have anything to do with Sex Pistols). This
song was originally recorded in 1982, intended to be included on
the "Stop Jap" LP, however it remained </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">unreleased until it was
re-recorded for this solo 12" in 1985. The original '82 recorded
version of this song, as well as </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">another unreleased song called "You" that
was recorded during the "Stop Jap" recording </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">session were finally officially
released on the "Stop Jap Naked" CD in 2007, when the master tape
was found. "Stop Jap Naked" is the original and complete version
of the classic "Stop Jap" album, include the forementioned two </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">outtake tracks. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Since the album was released on a
major label(and remember, it was in the year of '82, in Japan),
the band was forced to change some of the lyrics, and AFTER all
the tracks were already recorded, most part of them had to be
re-recorded(except the vocals).So, the "Stop Jap" LP came out with
the different lyrics and different sound mixing than how the album
was intended to be done(how the band wanted it to be done, obviously</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">), the two
forementioned tracks omitted, plus </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">most of the originally recorded
tracks re-recorded.(How unfortunate was it for the band?!) </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The '85 version of the song </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">"The Stalin"(a.k.a. "Never
Mind The Bollocks") included on this 12" sounds very much like the
'82 unreleased/outtake </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">version of the same song, with pretty much the same
arrange and everything. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Such a killer punk </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">tune that I have no clue why it had to be
omitted from the "Stop Jap" LP! Michiro was obviously unhappy that
the band was forced to change some of the lyrics, so that the </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">innovative, yet exceptionally </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">intelligent lyric style Michiro has </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">created for their
next album, "Mushi"(on the same label as "Stop Jap"), was meant to be his answer to this </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">unfortunate "Stop Jap" incident!!! OK, back to the main subject about </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">"The End" 12". It </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">also contains a re-recorded version
of the classic tune "Aogeba Toutoshi", </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">as well as the exclusive
songs "Ing'o! 7" and "Water Sister", the total of four </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">tracks. Such a shame, hs solo stuff is so underrated! Some of the releases especially </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">this 12" or "Vietnal Legend" are well worth checking out if you're truly into The Stalin.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Post-The Stalin solo project band(= The Gay-Nou Brothes) of Michiro with Jun Shimoyama from The Roosters(Burst City!) and some other dudes that I can't remember. The first full-length release under the concept of what he called "Grotesque New Pop", an essential mix of punk rock/new wave/post-punk, plus the usual Michiro craziness. A year after the several GNP releases, he started the two new bands Video-Stalin and Paranoia Star! While Video-Stalin was very active for about two years </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">and released the two videos and one LP, which contains the original songs and a few re-recorded version of The Stalin tunes, </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Paranoia Star played only a few gigs as far as I know.</span><br />

It's a compilation of the tracks from their early releases, rare and previously unreleased materials, including the "Front Line/The Unknown Soldier" 7"('83), tracks off the "Club Take One" 7"('81), "Young Assassin" 7"('82), "Shut Up!" 7"('82), "Anoko Ni Hitomebore" freebie flexi('84), 3 tracks off the unreleased 7th and 8th 7"s, and the "Toll Gate Ahead"('80) rehearsal session.

<span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">Swankys, The</span><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;"> </span>"Never Hero" CD - King's World, 1993, Japan, (KWCD93) - $55<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Very rare! This awesome 5-track CD was put out by King's World, however, at the time of its release it was as the "UK only release" and was supposedly "exclusively distributed in Japan by King's World". That's what the label claimed this CD to be, and purposely made it looks like it was "The Swankys' first ever international release" as another joke. So, it has no indication of the actual label name anywhere on this release, but instead there's an "EMI" parody logo on it. Also, the artworks and layouts were purposely done sort of cheaply, as well as some recording/release info(such as a fake producer name) in funny English is printed on it. The artworks are pretty cool, a photo of Watch on the front cover and the usual and odd Swankys style, nazi-inspired artwork on the back, of course. Originally no tracklist credited, but the actual song titles were made public by the label. They are: "I Love Money"(a.k.a. "I Don't Love"), "Cranky", "Fuck My History", "Chaotic Life" and "I Love You". I must mention that it's one of the best materials The Swankys did in my honest opinion. Actually, possibly the best and it's definitely my favorite and I sure listened to this more than any other releases by them. I do enjoy these tracks even more than the "Very Best Of Hero" LP. Watch's vocal style here is snottier than ever it was. The laziest Watch-style vocals at its finest! You gotta hear this to know how cool he sounds on these tracks. You can hear and feel full of <u><i>THAT</i></u> whole "fuck off" attitude of The Swankys in these tracks, especially from Watch's vocals, if you know what I mean...! That's like what this band's existence was all about, was it?! Another awesome thing about this release is that some of the songs can be heard only on this CD and aren't available, in any version, on any of their other releases. I think that the first, third and fourth songs are completely exclusive to this CD. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think they really are. I'm not sure of the exact recording date of these tracks but it's supposed to be the previously unreleased studio recording around the time that the "More Fuck" demo was done. Btw, the recording is pretty raw and rough, which makes it sound so damn rad. Oh man, seriously "I Love Money" and "Chaotic Life" are soooooooooo good! Love the sarcastic lyrics of "I Love Money", too.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Sort of a mysterious, official release that was put out by one of the ex-Typhus members(don't know which one) and sold at the selected shops in Tokyo(Base) and Osaka(Ignition) only. The Base version has a pink "Mangrove" stamp on the front sleeve, and the Ignition version has a completely different artwork/layout and the sleeve color is either yellow or pink. The cassettes used are different, too. This is the studio demo with some of the tracks featuring the female vocals by Miina Yasue. She was the band manager/staff for Aburadako and the early Willard, l</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">ater married to Michiro Endo and managed The Stalin as a B.Q. Records staff. This studio demo contains the earliest Typhus recording(before Tam joined the band), with the original line-up: Izumi on vocals/guitar, Miina Yasue on guitar/vocals, Shin on bass and Taku on drums. Miina played the guitar on some of the tracks.</span><br />

I know that the "Hardcore Showcase" comp LP and the Tiffanys flexi(my fav!) are also pretty tough to come by.</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">Super-catchy and rockin' punk like the older Sendai band The Idiot Idolaters.(they have the 7"s out on Chicken Shit and appeared on the "Shodoku Gig" comp LP, ex-Disarray) Actually, Under Beans were formed by Manabu, the ex singer from The Idiot Idolaters.</span><br />

Dear/Music Visions, 1986, Japan, (DEAR-002) - $25</strike><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The comes changed the name to Virgin Rocks several months after the "Power Never Die" 12" was released in March '86, on Captain/Dear Records. All the Virgin Rocks members except the drummer were the same as the "Power Never Die" recording lineup. The drummer was replaced to Tetsu M.(ex-Ghoul, and F.O.A.D. as well?) from Matsumura. Matsumura was an early drummer of The Comes until he left the band to join Gastunk in '84, which he left a year after joined back to play in The Comes again from '85 until '87. Around '90, he once again got together with Chitose to form The Wretched. Now..., by looking at the fact he was frantically(?) chasing Chitose's ass over the years, I suppose one can easily assume that he was actually far more interested in banging her than playing in the bands! Anyways, the music style played by Virgin Rocks is pretty much in the vein of The Comes from their "Power Never Die" era, powerful metal-punk with the obvious Plasmatics influences. Chitose was very much into Wendy O. Williams and Motörhead. But the late Comes and Virgin Rocks were way better than The Plasmatics! If you like the style they did on "Power Never Die" like I do, you'll also dig Virgin Rocks as well. If it wasn't your cup of tea, then you won't like this EP.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The legendary band that G.A.T.E.S. were highly
inspired by!!! Violent mix of raw thrash, hardcore/punk, Motörhead
and Venom. Very original and essential sound, I'd say. Includes 4
tracks recorded circa '83/'84. Fucking loud, noisy and totally
raging!! This EP was released after they broke up. Some of the
members, including a super bassist Koh Morota(R.I.P.), went onto
form Doom and F.O.A.D.(with Max from Ghoul & Jotaro from
Mobs/Tetsu-Arrey). Great artwork on a picture disc. One of the

<span style="color: red;"><b>AGE (Armed Government's Error) / The Deride </b></span>"Human Tool/Hypocricy, Violence, Ego, Money" 7" EP - Self (MC Smile?), 1998, Japan, (No
Cat. #) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This shit's pretty hard to come by! One of the
eariest AGE releases. I think it's their 2nd 7", after the "Inside
Darkness" 7" came out in '97. The usual, heavy-hitting, dark metallic crustcore by AGE. Pretty nicely raw recording! </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">This split was self-released by the bands, but the weird thing is that, on Discogs it's listed with "MC Smile" as the label name with the release number of "MC Smile-01", but I doubt that's the correct label name and the release number. I don't think this release has a number at all, and
is without the actual label name. I don't see "MC Smile-01" written
anywhere on the sleeve or the vinyl, not even in the matrix. There's no
label name indicated either. The closest thing I see is on The Deride
side of the folded sleeve, it says "M.C. Smiles, Fuck T.V."(No clue what the hell MC stands for. MC Hammer? R.I.P.) with a sloppy drawing of the TV, as part of artwork. Oh, and The Deride tracks are goddamn excellent. So sadly underrated! High-speed, rough, in-your-face HC with catchy hooks!! 3 kick-ass trax, "TV Means Money", "Invisible Violence", and "In Underground". "Full Throttle Local Energy" is what they describe their music.</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">Never heard any of their other releases, but I like 'em much better than AGE.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><i>N</i><i>-O-I-S-E O-V-E-R-D-O-S-E!!!!!</i>! Gotta love this one if you're into the fucked-up noisy shit. On this crazy-ass brutal split EP, S.F.P. plays some ultra-intense and distorted noisecore crust like a mix of Gloom, Collapse Society, Exit Hippies, Confuse and all that fantastic NOIZE. Raw and noisy as fuuuuuuckkk!!!! The thick-ass bass line and the fuzzed-out guitar riffs are absolutely sick, despite the image and impression you get from the song title like "Summer Never Ends" and how their side of the center label says "chill out".... And, the usual Doom, Sore Throat and E.N.T.-inspired stench noise crustcore from Abraham Cross. Their material here is actually even noisier, destructive and waaaaaaaaay more chaotic than any of their earlier stuff. I'd say it's much more in the fucked-up noisecore vein than the classic U.K. crust style you hear on the "Peace Can't Combine" LP('94~'95 recordings) on Crust War. Seriously, some of the noisiest, dirtiest and the most crucial sounding crust/noise-core you'd ever come across, man... However, this one is a bit harder to find than most of the other Paank Levyt releases. (P.S.) Inside the sleeve, there's an ad for the forth-coming Paank Levyt release(which never came out) by a band called Mob 2000("Tokyo No.1 Political Thrash Punk"), entitled "Are You OK? No! I'm Åke!". Who the hell are Mob 2000, yo?!?!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Toxik Trash is an insane, fucked-up noisecore/crust with ex-Abraham Cross members. A band that totally lives up to its name! </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Their songs are like a cross between of '80s noisecore(Rapt, Psycho Sin, Sore Throat or Ruido De Rabia) and Japanese noise crust(Collapse Society, Zyanose or Warcry), mixed with that fucked-up, extreme rawness of some old Mexican noisecore bands like M.E.L.I. or Cagada De Perro. Good mixture of all that noisy and scummy HC stuff! 6 trax by Toxik Trash included. Love the artwork on their side of the sleeve. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Heavy Water from the U.K. is consisted of ex-members of Hellbastard, Amebix etc. Punk & Destroy site described their music as the classic U.K. metal-crust style. I'd say it's sort of like Amebix and U.K. anarcho punk with a more metal tatse. An extremely limited, split release by the two Tokyo-based labels. Only 150 copies pressed and sold out immediately after its release.(Though, it was originally priced at 1800 Yen....!!) Most of copies were sold via mail order directly from the label. P&D was the only shop that sold some. Dirty Thrash is the Abraham Cross dude's label that also put out the Hellbastard "The Good Go First" ltd. LP and the Abraxas demo. Don't have any info about the other label, Teenage Scrap Sounds. One of the inserts advertises the label's forthcoming release(a 10-track EP by the unknown band called "Kibou no Ko"), however I have no clue if this actually came out. On the insert and the inner-flap of the sleeve, the parts where it says "Ltd to 150, Your # is ___ / 150" that's supposed to be numbered are left blank for this copy. Perhaps a promo. Someone posted one of the Toxik Trash tracks here: </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0LfkqAnvMM">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0LfkqAnvMM</a><br />

Not sure if the band made additional copies or they were the leftover from the show. The Separations are/were Zyanose's studio side project band. Not sure if this band has ever played live. They sound like The Swankys! This is very fucking good!! Wanna hear more songs by this band if they've got anything else out. 2 tracks by each band, the total of 4 tracks.

done by the "Takarajima" magazine, which was an awesome subculture &
music mags that covered tons of punk, hc, and other underground music back in the early to late '80s. This "God Save The Punx" comp is one of the "VOS" Special Issues. The "Takarajima" mags were published monthly and believe it or not, the "VOS" videos were also coming out fucking monthly as well!!(They cost like 2800 Yen each) (If you're familiar with what the Jap economic situation was like back in the late '80s until it started to get fucked sometimes in the '90s, it's not surprising at all. Majority of punks drove the Porsche, Mercedes, BMW, and shit! Even the fucking crusties could afford living in the nice home sweet home with the shower and bathtub in the middle of Tokyo!) Can't remember how many times I <i><u>HAD</u></i> to shoplift those damn video tapes
'cause they weren't exactly cheap for me at the time and I simply
couldn't afford buying them, yet they were still so tempting whenever I
saw the them at the shops!!! The monthly "VOS" VHS video series featured
the exclusive(mostly) live footages and interviews by loads of great
punk/hc bands, as well as some shitty ones too!!(Note: Most of "The
Special Issue" videos such as this one contain only or mainly the live
video clips and no interviews and such) For those who aren't familiar,
the record label 'Captain Records' was run by Takarajima(published by
JICC Publishing). Here, I found this amazingly extensive list of all the
"VOS" and Takarajima related video releases: </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><a href="http://www.geocities.co.jp/radiodaze76/vosxxxx.htm">http://www.geocities.co.jp/radiodaze76/vosxxxx.htm</a>
Most of the band names listed are written in katakana, kanji 'n'
hiragana, though.(Hey, btw, anybody seen that "Solly, Japanese Only!"
shit?! WTF, right?!?! Omg, omg, no Yanks or gypsies allwoed to see your
site?! You, Jap Nazis?? Ouch! We'll need to have the mighty, godly Pr*fane Exxxist*nce to hunt all you bigots down. C'mon, just kidding, man. Smile. You no fun. Even Steve Ignorant slept in the porch while on Japan tour. Ret's Lock'n'Loll.)
The famous cassette/booklet box set series like "The Punx" comp.,
Michiro Endo "Vietnam Legend", and Madame Edwarda "Illuminé" were
released by Takarajima/JICC. And, the other good and well-known ones
like the Lip Cream "Lip Cream Only" VHS and the "Burning Wild West" comp
VHS(Rapes, S.O.B., Danse Macabre, The Continental Kids, The Genbaku
Onanies etc.) are also part of the "VOS Special Issue" VHS series!!

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This is a killer 3-way split EP that's pretty hard to come by(and a bit expensive in Japan these days coz Order is big overthere), compared to many of the other MCR compilations from the '90s. It's one of those few older MCR 7"s that were pressed in a smaller quantity like 700~800 copies. Contains the first ever recorded material by Order, with the original singer, from when they were still playing sloppy and raw noisecore like what you hear on their great "Punk Navigation" 1st EP on Overthrow Records. Think of early Disorder, Chaos UK, Chaos CH etc. I love all the Order releases up to the "Taep'o-Dong" LP, but especially their early noisecore stuff. Their recent releases are boring and kinda lame... Some of the Mindsuck members went on to form Reality Crisis. Noisy and distorted, Japanese style crustcore. Mental Disease, you probably already know. It's a really nice, crusty 'n' filthy comp 7" with a super-crusty sleeve artwork.</span></div>

flexi set packaged in a huge fold-out poster sleeve.(LP sleeve size when
folded) There was this 'zine writer chick goes by a nickname 'Bakuretsu
Toshiko' from Tokyo, who did her own free monthly 'zine/newsletter type
of thing called "Ranchiki", as well as setting up the local shows in
the Tokyo area back in the mid~late '80s. She did two awesome "Ranchiki"
compilations featuring only her favorite bands. The first one being a
comp tape/booklet set from 1985, included many great bands like
Poison(their very first recording!), Asylum, Nira-Kodomo, Barigade,
Shuffle, Kiku, Kyoaku-Kyojindan, New Roteeka etc. This 5 flexi set is
the second comp and is another excellent work of hers like the first
one. Co-released by Nouzui Records.(Don Don Yoshikawa's label) Featuring
the bands in wide variety of style include HC, punk rock, Oi!, and even
some new wave, but mostly the HC and punk bands. Some of the bands
appeared on this comp later became pretty well known. Some of the
notable unknown bands that are worth mentioning here: Cd.Synapse! I like
this band a lot. Speedy and metallic HC, kinda like The Execute(early),
Sha-London, Ziga(Jiga), Geizz, or Molugu. Their 7"s are really good. 2
tracks appeared on this comp are pretty good too, but the "Asphyxiation"
EP is their best. Another band, Maria-A. I wish to hear more songs from
this band!! Their female singer was in Goddess, the band that's on the
"ADK Omnibus Vol.1", and the guitarist Kazushi is from The Trash, The
Clay, Chu-Doku etc. The only Maria-A track I've heard is the one on this
comp. They're supposed to be on the "Dog Days Live" comp VHS(w/ Lip
Cream, Outo, Aggressive Dogs etc.) and are listed on the cover, however,
the actual live footage is missing from the video?! Too bad. And, the
Yagiinu track is another one I really liked from this comp. I think it's
better than the tracks I heard on their 8" flexi.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">These were the limited, promo/freebie zines given away to those who pre-ordered the "AA Records, We're Back!" series reissue CD's in 1991. Doesn't actually say "AA Records Book" anywhere on it but I remember that's what it was called in the old Doll magazine ad and the zine originally in a sealed bag with a little sticker on it which had "AA Records Book" printed on it. Contains mostly the reprints from the first issue of "P.O.W." and just a few rare early AA Records ads.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This second one is much nicer than the other one because it has more AA Records ad reprints besides the reprinted pages from the second issue of "P.O.W."</span><br />

<br />
<b>Adenoid (アデノイド)</b> "Outo-Roman"(嘔吐ロマン) 7" EP - Beat House, 1987, Japan, (NOID 001) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Man, this is such a great record and I love this. I can say this for sure, however, I would NOT recommend this if you're into just punk and hardcore. This is actually the same Adenoid that appeared on the insanely-rare "Ningen Omnibus" comp flexi with Kyojinbyo and two more local Chiba city bands. On the flexi, they've had a Kyojinbyo guitarist in their lineup at that time, but I don't think he's on the recording of this EP. This came out later in the same year after the comp flexi, however, with a different lineup and music style. It's some quality Japanese darkwave/gothic-punk stuff. The songs are dark and with that freaky guitar riffs and all that, but at the same time they're also pretty punkish and hard at the same time. So, I would also recomemnd this to those who enjoy the music of some of the ADK type bands like Aburadako(especially), </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Kikeiji,</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Masturbation, Aka or Sekinin Tenka. I guess this fits in the goth/darkwave genre, but the songs are somewhat punkish in that ADK Records punk vein. Think of '80s goth/darkwave mixed with the style of the bands like Aburadako(especially), Kikeiji, Masturbation, Sekintenka, Aka etc. Adenoid is so damn obscure that there's not much info available but I know at least one member(a guitarist) from Mother-Goose, the late '80s Chiba-city based goth/darkwave band that was quite well known in the underground scene, was playing in this band.(actually, Adenoid sounds kind of similar to Mother Goose) Besides that, they appeared on the rare "All The Children Are Insain(Insane)" comp LP, under the alternate name of Doroebisu, with Mother Goose, Chu-Doku(from Chiba also), Theatre Brook etc. That's an excellent LP, by the way.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Part 2 is even rarer than the Part 1!!! This is the first time I got a copy for sale and don't know if I'll be able to get another one in the future. This one is really, really tough to come by. Awesome and super-rare photo book containing tons of cool full-color and b&w photos of the following bands: Madame Edwarda(8 pages + front/back covers), Masturbation(2 pages), </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Auto-Mod(6 pages), </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Lip Cream(3 pages), Sodom(6 pages), </span></span>The Willard(5 pages), </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Continental Kids(2 pages), Kyaah(2 pages), </span>Sadie Sads(4 pages), Hanatarash(4 pages), Nubile, Phaidia, Gara, G-Schmitt, The Loods, Rose Jets, Kenzi, The God, Oxz, Sperma, Zelda, D-Day etc.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">B.O.D.'s first or second demo, originally released by D.I.Y. Records in '92 and the U.S. version on Japankore came out in '94, I think.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">U.S. hardcore style. This band later became Envy, changed the music style and got pretty big internationally, but Blind Justice was highly inspired by NYHC that played much more straight-forward, simple and fast hardcore. The band was formed in '92 and this is their 1st EP after putting out a couple of demos. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP41EII12uk" target="_blank">"Far East Hardcore" comp track</a></span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">C.O.S.A. (Cache Of Strategic Arms)</span> "Strategic" 7" EP - Self, 1992, Japan, Insert, (LM-2704) - $25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Pre-Effigy and Reality Crisis! This EP was actually self released by the band and I think MCR just did a distribution. No actual MCR catalog number stated anywhere on this release and it's not listed on the label discography page either. Dark, metallic and raging Japanese crustcore. Awesome 6-track EP!! Some of the songs are from their demos. The ex-C.O.S.A./Effigy guys currently play in Axewield.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Think of more rough and "crappier" version of early Gastunk, Poison(Arts) or late Mobs. Imagine the younger punks trying so damn hard playing that particular style of '80s metallic Japcore and that's exactly what you hear on this Clod EP. I actually like it a lot, though, who could play that unique metallic HC style better than Gastunk or Poison did?(duh) Released on Slice(a.k.a. Sulaisu) Records, the label ran by the Poison Arts singer in the late '80s. I totally did everything that was released by this label. This one is a bit hard to find like that Matsuji EP. This comes in a nice and huge fold-out glossy poster sleeve just like the Poison Arts and Sqwad flexi's do. Clod also appeared on the "Nobody's Fault"(Slice Omnibus Vol.1) comp LP and did at least one demo tape called "Thalidomide" which I've been trying to find a copy forever.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Very rare, limited VHS-only release(never been reissued on DVD), containing the live video footage of their great '89 reunion show in Kyoto, before the band signed to a major label and got HUGE. Featuring their best ever line-up with Naoki(ex-orig. Cobra & Laughin' Nose, now plays in SA) and Pon(ex-Nashi & Laughin' Nose, now plays in L.N. again). This is such a killer live footage. Professionally recorded and packaged. Self released on the band's own Public Red label. You won't find this again.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Gendou Missile's 7-track 1st EP! This band is sadly unknown to most of people outside of Japan(although they're pretty big over threre), but they may be known to some of HC fans since their 3rd EP was released on Hold Up/Noise Room Records, which I think is pretty good. This one is very good and the songs on this EP sound harder and more HC than the Hold Up EP, though! They had two bass players(wtf?) in their early lineup, but I guess they decided to get rid of one after this EP. Gendou Missile also has the LP out on Taiyo Records, a label that put out the Kyoaku-Kyojindan 8" flexi and LP, the Detroit EP etc.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><br /></span><b>Gendou Missile (ゲんドう ミサイル)<span style="color: red;"> </span></b>"I・Ya・Da!" Picture 7" EP - Nagomu, 1986, Japan, Folded metallic foil sleeve, (NG-028) - $18<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The 4-track 2nd picture EP. The music is pretty much in the vein of the 1st EP, but that one is better, I think. In the special thanks list, Ishiya(Death Side), Mosquito(mid '80s thrash HC on "Nippon Rentogen") and Sister Ray(Kiekiji singer's band) are credited. Hiroshi, the guitarist from Gendou Missile was very close friends with Chelsea(he learned the guitar from Hiroshi) and he is the one played the guitar for Death Side at the Chelsea tribute show in 2010. Hiroshi also played in Asylum and The Trash. Asylum's earliest and original lineup includes Chelsea and Ran-Lin, both from Death Side and Poison. Gendou Missile is still active but I don't think Hiroshi is their current member.</span></div>

The only ever release by them besides a great '87 split demo tape with Exdead. Heavy-hitting, speedy and metallic Japcore in the tradition of those other classic '80s Shizuoka bands ala Deadless Muss, So What, Rustler, Innocents(Zamza), Mental etc. Completely unknown, but an awesome band!</span><br /><span style="color: red;"><i>Note: <span style="color: #ff99ff;">The flexi has a slight bent mark, but plays perfectly.</span></i></span></span></div>

<b>Insane Youth</b> "Breakthrough Blockbuster" 7" EP - Dan-Doh, 1996, Japan, (DAN-DOH 001) - $18<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The band's second EP and it's the first ever release put out by Dan-Doh Records. Insane Youth was Souichi(Forward, ex-Gudon)'s old band from Kochi, and he was the singer/guitarist for them. The early Insane Youth stuff's really good, like this one and the "Not Give A Damn" first EP on Blood Sucker.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Nagoya-based band consisted of the singer who used to be a member of Order and the guitarist from Result. I think this band is completely underrated and sadly overlooked. The music is some solid, crusty metallic HC with male/female dual vocals, in the vein of Nausea, Detestation, Reality Crisis, Antischism, Hiatus or Amebix. I bet these guys were hugely inspired by a lot of the '80s~'90s U.K. and U.S. anarcho hardcore/crust bands. This EP was also released in the U.K. on Destroy Records. This one here is the harder to find, original Japanese pressing. This is great. It's really, really good, actually.</span><br />

<b>KGS</b> "Cutcord And Destruction" 7" EP - Blood Sucker/Rebelabel, 1998, Japan, (BSR-024/REB-005) - $5<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Rough and driving Japcore with an old school U.S. hardcore edge ala Black Flag or Circle Jerks. The 2nd EP from this lesser-known, Tokyo-based HC band featuring the guitarist T.T.(ex-Extinct Government & Forward), who currently plays in a new-ish band called Eiefits, with Minoru(Lip Cream, The Comes, E.Government etc.) and some other people nobody couldn't care less about. Don't know which guy, but I know one of the other members was in early RoseRose. KGS also did a split EP with a great band from Shizuoka called H,K,(ex-Deadless Muss & The Rustler, 2 tapes out on D.I.S.) on Blood Sucker Records earlier the same year.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The official Kuro discography CD containing their 1st flexi, "Who The Helpless" 8", "Fire" 7" and the "1983 Gig" flexi. Rare original D.T.K. Records release from '91. Most of the D.T.K. CD's are quite hard to find. I still need the Cockney Cocks CD and The Comes CD myself. Anybody has them for trade? </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">For your info, here's a list of the known D.T.K. releases: </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Zolge "Russian Roulette" CD('90, DTK-001), The Zolge "Russian Roulette" ltd. 12"('90, DTKL-9001), Poison Arts "S/T" CD('90, DTK/SLICE-0002), Cockney Cocks "Night Of The Outrage" CD('90, DTK-0003), Kuro "S/T" CD('91, DTK-0004), V.A.

Kanon, ex-G.I.S.M./Front Guerrilla) on guitar, Bear Bomb(Final Bombs, ex-Ghoul) on bass and Misa(ex-Kyaah/Rap/Geizz) on drums. This is their only release with Loony on vocals. Their later releases, the "Retro Firing" EP and the 12", on Selfish Records were recorded with the second singer Bondage, who later formed the great band called Grave New World with the Crow singer and the Asbestos drummer in the early '90s, and I believe currently plays the guitar in the Crow singer's another band Kaiboushitsu. After Bondage left Last Bomb, they changed the music style to more like the late Discharge style metallic HC and also changed the name to Final Bombs, with Bear Bomb on vocals/guitar.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Solid, speedy and straight-forward HC like the mid~late '80s Selfish Records stuff ala Systematic Death, Outo or Lip Cream, with just a slight more metallic edge. Missing Burn is from Kyushu and this flexi is on SS </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Company, the label ran by Flak. SS Company and Violent Party were the two main labels organizing the local shows, besides putting out the records and tapes, in the '80s Kyushu area punk scene. All the SS Company releases are pretty hard to find. The other releases by the label are the Flak flexi and CD, the Ruin flexi and demo, the Red House flexi and demo, and "The End Of Your Generation" comp tape(Flak, Ruin, Piss, Rebel etc.) There's also the SS Company comp CD called "Broke Out Insanity"(incl. Flak, Ruin & Missing Burn), which was actually released by King's World Records in '91. The only known releases by Missing Burn are this flexi and the comp CD tracks, but they might have a demo or two out earlier since the band was active from the mid/late '80s. This is a nice, new/unplayed stock copy of the rare and obscure 6-track flexi.</span></div>

These guys also released the "Control Noise" tape on their other label called Damaging Noise. As it says "Some copies came with a pair of 3D glasses." on Discogs, this copy is complete with a bonus 3D glasses.(why...?!) I have no fucking clue what the 3D glasses have to do with this record, but I see on the back sleeve there's a weird photo of a bunch of guys wearing the similar glasses, and inside the sleeve there's a 3D artwork/design(well, sort of...) Perhaps some sort of a nonsense joke.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><br /></span></span><b>Resurrection</b> "S/T" 7" flexi - ADK, 1985, Japan, (ADK-23S) - $25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Produced, engineered and released by Tam.(The Stalin, Typhus, Middle→Class, G-Zet/Bradbury etc.) Resurrection had ex-member(s) of Hentai Club, the pre-Aburadako band with Paruo(a.k.a. Paro) from Sha-London/Sex Imagination Drugs/Incest Records.</span><br />

<b>Rise From The Dead </b>"Haraguro" 7" flexi - Bron, 1990, Japan, (New/Unplayed), (Bron RFD-1/GIGA-1) - $20<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The first and probably the best work done by this Osaka-based band consisted of Naoto(S.O.B.) on vocals, Motsu(Outo, Chicken Bowels & Half Years) on guitar, Mitchun(Outo) on bass and Taku(Crow) on drums. Formed in the late '80s. Yes, their later releases are pretty lame, I must admit that... I guess they played HC only up to the split EP('91) with Filthkick, when they still had the original line-up. I remember not liking their 1st album on Selfish Records so much when it first came out in the late '92. It still sounded HC but was kinda weird, I think. An unplayed, mint stock copy. (P.S.) If anybody wants to either sell or trade a ltd. promo/hard vinyl edition of this flexi, lemme know! I know the promo copies exist like the ones made for the S.O.B./Napalm Death split flexi.</span></div>

<b>SA</b> "Youth On Your Feet" CD - Submission, 1999, Japan, Obi, (SUBM-001) - $20<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This self-released CD contains the tracks off the "Oi Of Japan" comp LP(AA Records, '85), a previously unreleased demo track "No Name"('84), a live track "Confound It"('86) and the '99 re-recorded version of their classic tune "Youth On Your Feet". The '99 track is from their first recording session/studio demo that was recorded right after SA got reformed in the late '90s, when they still didn't have the permanent band members. Jun Gray(ex-Sekinintenka, Bitousha, Bradbury & Kenzi) from Dessert plays the bass on this recording. I have no clue who the other two guys are. I think this '99 version sounds way cooler than the original "Oi Of Japan" version. Although the recording is pretty rough, the rerecorded version sounds much faster, rawer and more powerful. The best thing about this CD is those unreleased demo and live tracks you won't find anywhere else. The studio version of "Confound It" originally appeared on the amazing "I Get Position" 8" flexi in '85! If you've never heard that classic flexi, you're missing out something!!! I don't remember which songs but you can hear one or two tracks off this flexi on the "Nagasaki Nightrider" boot comp LP that came out in the '90s.</span><br />

Their classic tunes from the Selfish~Toy's Factory label era re-recordeed with the new line-up. Like the title says it all, they're returned with the total grindcore style. For some reason, this CD went out of print not too long after its release and the band doesn't seem to be active lately.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Post-The Stalin solo project band(= The Gay-Nou Brothes) of Michiro with Jun Shimoyama from The Roosters(Burst City!) and some other dudes that I can't remember. The first full-length release under the concept of what he called "Grotesque New Pop", an essential mix of punk rock/new wave/post-punk, plus the usual Michiro craziness. A year after the several GNP releases, he started the two new bands Video-Stalin and Paranoia Star! While Video-Stalin was very active for about two years </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">and released the two videos and one LP, which contains the original songs and a few re-recorded version of The Stalin tunes, </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Paranoia Star played only a few gigs as far as I know.</span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Swankys, The</span><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;"> </span>"Never Hero" CD - King's World, 1993, Japan, (KWCD93) - (Trade or Offer)<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Very rare! This awesome 5-track CD was put out by King's World, however, at the time of its release it was as the "UK only release" and was supposedly "exclusively distributed in Japan by King's World". That's what the label claimed this CD to be, and purposely made it looks like it was "The Swankys' first ever international release" as another joke. So, it has no indication of the actual label name anywhere on this release, but instead there's an "EMI" parody logo on it. Also, the artworks and layouts were purposely done sort of cheaply, as well as some recording/release info(such as a fake producer name) in funny English is printed on it. The artworks are pretty cool, a photo of Watch on the front cover and the usual and odd Swankys style, nazi-inspired artwork on the back, of course. Originally no tracklist credited, but the actual song titles were made public by the label. They are: "I Love Money"(a.k.a. "I Don't Love"), "Cranky", "Fuck My History", "Chaotic Life" and "I Love You". I must mention that it's one of the best materials The Swankys did in my honest opinion. Actually, possibly the best and it's definitely my favorite and I sure listened to this more than any other releases by them. I do enjoy these tracks even more than the "Very Best Of Hero" LP. Watch's vocal style here is snottier than ever it was. The laziest Watch-style vocals at its finest! You gotta hear this to know how cool he sounds on these tracks. You can hear and feel full of <u><i>THAT</i></u> whole "fuck off" attitude of The Swankys in these tracks, especially from Watch's vocals, if you know what I mean...! That's like what this band's existence was all about, was it?! Another awesome thing about this release is that some of the songs can be heard only on this CD and aren't available, in any version, on any of their other releases. I think that the first, third and fourth songs are completely exclusive to this CD. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think they really are. I'm not sure of the exact recording date of these tracks but it's supposed to be the previously unreleased studio recording around the time that the "More Fuck" demo was done. Btw, the recording is pretty raw and rough, which makes it sound so damn rad. Oh man, seriously "I Love Money" and "Chaotic Life" are soooooooooo good! Love the sarcastic lyrics of "I Love Money", too.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Sort of a mysterious, official release that was put out by one of the ex-Typhus members(don't know which one) and sold at the selected shops in Tokyo(Base) and Osaka(Ignition) only. The Base version has a pink "Mangrove" stamp on the front sleeve, and the Ignition version has a completely different artwork/layout and the sleeve color is either yellow or pink. The cassettes used are different, too. This is the studio demo with some of the tracks featuring the female vocals by Miina Yasue. She was the band manager/staff for Aburadako and the early Willard. Later married to Michiro Endo and managed The Stalin as a B.Q. Records staff. This studio demo contains the earliest Typhus recording(before Tam joined the band), with the original line-up: Izumi on vocals/guitar, Miina Yasue on guitar/vocals, Shin on bass and Taku on drums. Miina played the guitar on some of the tracks.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Obscure Sendai-city HC band on the awesome Stomping Records. Possibly the hardest to find out of all seven Stomping releases?(Dead Person, Lance Lot etc.) This is the only one that has the indication of "limited edition of 500" on the sleeve. I know that the "Hardcore Showcase" comp LP and the Tiffanys flexi(my fav!) are also pretty tough to come by.</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">Super-catchy and rockin' punk like the older Sendai band The Idiot Idolaters.(they have the 7"s out on Chicken Shit and appeared on the "Shodoku Gig" comp LP, ex-Disarray) Actually, Under Beans were formed by Manabu, the ex singer from The Idiot Idolaters.</span><br />

<b>Abraham Cross / Struggle For Pride</b> - 7" EP - Paank Levyt, 2003, Japan, 700 pressed, Extra outer sleeve, Yellow marbled vinyl, (PAANK-013) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><i>N</i><i>-O-I-S-E O-V-E-R-D-O-S-E!!!!!</i>! Gotta love this one if you're into the fucked-up noisy shit. On this crazy-ass brutal split EP, S.F.P. plays some ultra-intense and distorted noisecore crust like a mix of Gloom, Collapse Society, Exit Hippies, Confuse and all that fantastic NOIZE. Raw and noisy as fuuuuuuckkk!!!! The thick-ass bass line and the fuzzed-out guitar riffs are absolutely sick, despite the image and impression you get from the song title like "Summer Never Ends" and how their side of the center label says "chill out".... And, the usual Doom, Sore Throat and E.N.T.-inspired stench noise crustcore from Abraham Cross. Their material here is actually even noisier, destructive and waaaaaaaaay more chaotic than any of their earlier stuff. I'd say it's much more in the fucked-up noisecore vein than the classic U.K. crust style you hear on the "Peace Can't Combine" LP('94~'95 recordings) on Crust War. Seriously, some of the noisiest, dirtiest and the most crucial sounding crust/noise-core you'd ever come across, man... However, this one is a bit harder to find than most of the other Paank Levyt releases. (P.S.) Inside the sleeve, there's an ad for the forth-coming Paank Levyt release(which never came out) by a band called Mob 2000("Tokyo No.1 Political Thrash Punk"), entitled "Are You OK? No! I'm Åke!". Who the hell are Mob 2000, yo?!?!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Extremely rare and hard to find, original CD on Selfish Records. This album was originally released only on CD format in '93, but later bootleg on vinyl in '98. Here's your chance to own the real thing. It was the last Selfish Records release, and as some of you may be aware that majority of the CD-only releases they put out right before the label ended in the early '90s were made in the much smaller quantity and are harder to find than the earlier vinyl releases that the label did during the '80s up to around '90. Like this CD, also the Assfort "5 Knuckle Shuffle", "Final Bombs "Dooms Day", Don Don "Borderline", Ogreish Organism "Oni", Rise From The Dead "Rock Fan Dead" or both the original Death Side CD's are rarely seen for sale.</span></div>

<b>Raid / Sugar</b> - 7" EP - Discrete, 1998, Japan, (DIS-022) - $25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Top-notch split release by these Burning Spirits style HC bands from Shizuoka city, done exactly in the tradition of the classic Japcore and Shizuoka HC bands ala So What, Deadless Muss, Innocents, Mental or early Zone. A lot of the bands from Shizuoka from the '80s~'90s were highly influenced by Lip Cream and Death Side, and these two bands on this split EP did it pretty well. Pure raging traditional Japcore at its best. I believe this is the only release of Raid, besides a few comp tracks. Sugar(ex-Swindle Bitch) also released the "Live Now, Pay Later" CD on Discrete Records in '01.</span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Swat / Kasumi Sawaki</span><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;"> </span>- 7" flexi - Hinokyu Ongaku Shuppan, 1983, Japan, Clear red flexi, (本質発掘 002) - $15<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Kasumi Sawaki(credited as Kazumi Sawaki on this release) was a singer for the punk band called Hinokyu(a.k.a. Hinomiya) that has the 7" out on City Rocker Records from '84 and also ran Taiyo Records, which was a label known for some decent punk/hc releases during the mid~late '80s, like the Kyoaku Kyojindan 8" flexi and the "No!" LP(a killer LP! w/ Suehiro Maruo artwork), Detroit 7", Gendou-Missile LP, Geil 7", Genkaku Mime 7" etc. On side A of this split flexi(as a Taiyo Records sub-label release), his solo project plays some weird punk tunes with, what appears to be, some kinda strange political agitation or some sorts at the beginning of each song. I don't know what the fuck this music is. Could be some sort of a joke, tough. So, while you get some worthless weird crap on sidee A, the tracks done by this unknown punk band called Swat(or SWAT?) on the other side sound more solid and far better than the Sawaki tracks. Swat does 2 tracks here, "Death Boy" and "Roudousha Kaikyu"(= "working class" or "proletariat"). Simple, straight-forward and rough punk rock that the music style wise, I guess not very far from stuff like Typhus, The 4th International, Nurse(early), Kyaah or The Stalin(early). Yes, the style wise, and that doesn't mean that I'm saying this is as brilliant as those classic bands, but here you can check out the first track from this flexi: </span></span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soUSEPRCoAI" target="_blank">SWAT "Death Boy"</a> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Can't really tell for certain but the vocalist might be a female.</span></span><br />

<b>Toxik Trash / Heavy Water</b> "Out Of Order" - 7" EP - Dirty Thrash/Teenage Scrap Sounds, 2004, Japan/UK, 150 pressed, Large fold-out insert(unnumbered) & label info insert, Clear vinyl, (DIRTY-3/TSS-1) - (Trade or Offer)<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Toxik Trash is an insane, fucked-up crust/noisecore with ex-Abraham Cross members. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Their songs remind of some of the other fine Japanese noisecore bands mixed with the fucked-up rawness of some old Mexican noisecore like M.E.L.I. or Cagada De Perro. Good stuff. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Heavy Water from the U.K. is consisted of ex-members of Hellbastard, Amebix etc. Some Jap shop sites like P&D described their music like the classic U.K. metal-crust, but honestly more like metal to me. An extremely limited split release by the two Tokyo-based labels. 150 copies pressed and sold out immediately after its release. Dirty Thrash is the Abraham Cross dude's label that also put out the limited Hellbastard LP.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Japanese Vs. Brazilian raw crust split EP that kicks major ass. I'd recommend both bands to any young and horny(and not so horny) crusties who love jerkin' off to the noise of Disclose, Framtid, Life, Doom, Besthöven, Discharge, S.D.S., Abraham Cross, Skitsystem, Totalitär, Discard, Gloom, Result, Antiauthorize and all that good 'n' juicy stuff.

Don't know anything about them but they're on the "Unknown HC Drunker" comp. Bull Oyster fucking sucks and Less Haze is just average. Never heard of this label called Pressure Records, but since the contact address is Kanazawa, I have a feeling that it might have been Datsu(Iconoclast & Delta)'s old label... This is one of those Japanese 3" size, mini CD's that comes in a tall and flat package.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">S.D.S. / Atrocity Exhibition(C.F.D.L.) / Naüsea - An absolutely killer compilation of some of the best early Japanese crust bands, all from Nagoya. It's a pretty hard to find flexi. C.F.D.L. used to be called Atrocity Exhibition in their early days. Often confused, but their 1st EP was actually released under the name of A.E. and "Crazy Fucked Up Daily Life" is the EP title. The S.D.S. tracks are some of their first recorded materials. What makes this flexi really special is the rare appearance by the Japanese crust legend </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Naüsea, featuring the later Unholy Grave singer Takaho Komatsu and the drummer Nai-chin from C.F.D.L., Rabia, Future Now!, Out Of Touch etc. Ultra-harsh and brutal metallic crustcore ala Doom, Extreme Noise Terror, Sore Throat or Abraham Cross.

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This is a killer 3-way split EP that's pretty hard to come by(and a bit expensive in Japan these days coz Order is big overthere), compared to many of the other MCR compilations from the '90s. It's one of those few older MCR 7"s that were pressed in a smaller quantity like 700~800 copies. Contains the first ever recorded material by Order, with the original singer, from when they were still playing sloppy and raw noisecore like what you hear on their great "Punk Navigation" 1st EP on Overthrow Records. Think of early Disorder, Chaos UK, Chaos CH etc. I love all the Order releases up to the "Taep'o-Dong" LP, but especially their early noisecore stuff. Their recent releases are boring and kinda lame... Some of the Mindsuck members went on to form Reality Crisis. Noisy and distorted, Japanese style crustcore. Mental Disease, you probably already know. It's a really nice, crusty 'n' filthy comp 7" with a super-crusty sleeve artwork.</span></div>

"Outo-Roman"(嘔吐ロマン) 7" EP - Beat House, 1987,
Japan, (NOID 001) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Man, this is such a great record and I love
this. I can say this for sure, however, I
would NOT recommend this if you're into just punk and hardcore.
This is actually
the same Adenoid that appeared on the insanely-rare "Ningen
Omnibus" comp flexi with Kyojinbyo and two more local Chiba city
bands. On the flexi, they've had a Kyojinbyo guitarist in their lineup
at that time, but I don't
think he's on the recording of this EP. This came out later in the
same year after the comp flexi, however, with a different lineup
and music style. It's some quality Japanese
darkwave/gothic-punk stuff. The songs are dark and with that
freaky guitar riffs and all that, but at the same time they're also
pretty punkish and hard at the same time. So, I would also recomemnd
this to those who enjoy the music of some of the ADK type bands
like Aburadako(especially), </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Kikeiji,</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Masturbation, Aka or Sekinin Tenka.
I guess this fits in the goth/darkwave genre,
but the songs are somewhat punkish in that ADK Records punk vein.
Think of '80s goth/darkwave mixed with the style of the bands like
Aburadako(especially), Kikeiji, Masturbation, Sekintenka, Aka etc.
Adenoid is so damn obscure that there's not much info available but I
know at least one member(a guitarist) from Mother-Goose, the late '80s Chiba-city based
goth/darkwave band that was quite well known in the underground scene,
was playing in this band.(actually, Adenoid sounds kind of similar to
Mother Goose) Besides that, they appeared on the rare "All The
Children Are Insain(Insane)" comp LP, under the alternate name of
Doroebisu, with Mother Goose, Chu-Doku(from Chiba also), Theatre Brook etc. That's an
excellent LP, by the way.</span></div>

Produced by Zombie, the bassist from Gas. Released on Gas' Jisatsu Label which tried to focus on putting out the records by the lesser known bands from the non-major cities at that time, such as this band, Nikudan, Ziga, The Sexual, Confuse on the Jisatsu Omnibus. Don't miss this great flexi out if you dig this particular style of '80s Japanese bands like Kikeiji, Aburadako, Masturbation, The Stalin, Sekinin-Tenka, The Sadist, Shoujo-Ningyo etc. "Aka" is a Japanese word for "red".</span></span><br />

</b></span>"S/T" LP - Invitation, 1980, Japan, Poster insert,
(VIH-6066) - $30<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Early Japanese punk rock classic! The debut LP
containing the great tracks from their 1st EP, "Not Satisfied" and
"Aburamushi". This original LP contains "Tokyo Is Burning", a track that
was omitted from the reissue CD due to the lyrics containing some shit
about the Japanese emperor. Their catchy, rough and primitive yet
energetic punk rock tunes are loved by tons of older punks in Japan and
their songs were covered by numerous bands, like that one cool cover song on
the Chaos "Revolution!" 7". Didn't Fuck Geez also do some Anarchy covers on their record? There's a double CD tribute album released
by Straight Up Records where their songs were covered by the various
punk and hardcore bands like Zone, Extinct Government, Chaos, No
Problem, Raiya, Miburo, Cider 77, The Slowmotions and Michiro Endo! The
hilarious incident of The Stalin vs. Anarchy vs. Jagatara vs. The
Roosters' the 4-band madly fight during The Stalin live set at the Burst
City movie release party(at the Loft, Tokyo '82) is now the legendary
episode in the history of Japanese punk. Sadly, Anarchy isn't getting as
much attention as they deserve outside of Japan, but if you're into
good ol' Japanese punk rock like The Star Club, The Stalin, Laughin'
Nose, Cobra or The Blue Hearts, give a listen. I know a couple of their
old songs appeared on some of the Killed By Death and the Back To Front
rare & obscure punk comp's. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Check out this</span> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4fb0RizGzc" target="_blank">awesome live footage(from a documentary DVD?)</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwuBYJNDloc" target="_blank">Watch "Not Satisfied"(live at Yaneura '80)</a> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">& listen to</span> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLFnHmLRAYM" target="_blank">"Danchi No Obasan"</a> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">Some more good ones here: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0AcTdlc8c4" target="_blank">"Sakende Yaruze!"(live early '80s)</a> &</span> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96b3OD2om4A" target="_blank">"Anarchy City"(reunion show '94)</a><br />

Sendai-city HC all-star project band, featuring the female
guitarist Hiromi, who later went on to join G-Zet(changed the
name to Bradbury shortly after) as a vocalist in Tokyo. The
other members of Bitosuha include, the singer Ryuji(Disarray,
Mino-5, Dessert etc.), the bassist Jun(Sekinintenka,
G-Zet→Bradbury, Kenzi & The Trips, Dessert etc.) and the drummer
Hideki(Rebel). Sekinin Tenka and Rebel members. The female
guitarist Hiromi(Rebel) and the bassist Jun(Sekinin Tenka) later
moved to Tokyo to play in G-Zet/Bloodberry with Tam(The Stalin).
This is some quality metallic Japcore. An amazing flexi by an
amazing band out of the great '80s Sendai punk scene, where a
bunch of other notable bands like G-Spot, Dead Person, Lance
Lot, Idiot Idolaters, Insect Powder and The Vomits were from.
(MRR #23 review: "Absolutely demented vocals appear on two of
the three tracks here. It's again that metal-punk style of GISM,

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Commented by Ishiya(Forward/Death Side) on the
front sleeve. Awesome, distorted and noisy HC from Oita, Kyushu.
Distorted vocals and fuzzed-out guitars over the crashing HC
tunes. Very limited and hard to find 1st EP by this long-running,
but unrecognized band. Sounds totally different from their past
materials like the "Oita City HC" comp tracks etc. Although their
songs aren't exactly in the noisecore vein, I'd recommended this
EP to fans of any noisy and distorted Japanese HC or early
Disorder and Chaos U.K. Pretty solid release! Contains 4 tracks
including an Anarchy(!!) cover song "Anarchy City", yeeeeeeeees!</span></span><br />

Selfish, 1986, UK, Orig. 1st press of 300 w/ light pink
sleeve, Japan-only release, (BEL-12001) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Rare Japanese release on Selfish Records. It's
the very first release of the label. The songs were recorded with
Mower on vocals during their first Japanese tour in '85. The
studio tracks on side A and the live tracks on the other side.
Gauze, Sakevi, Lip Cream, Ghoul, Execute, Outo, Gastunk are
credited in the thanks list. The first pressing was limited to 300
copies with a lighter, pink sleeve. The second and later pressings
have the much darker, red-ish sleeve. There's also an European
bootleg that came out on Sewage Records(also did The Varukers
"Another Religion, Another War" 2 x 7" boot) in '97, which is easy
to identify because of the center label is white, while the
original Selfish pressings have the pink label.</span></span><br />

Imagine the younger punks trying so damn hard playing that particular style of '80s metallic Japcore and that's exactly what you hear on this Clod EP. I actually like it a lot, though, who could play that unique metallic HC style better than Gastunk or Poison did?(duh) Released on Slice(a.k.a. Sulaisu) Records, the label ran by the Poison Arts singer in the late '80s. I totally did everything that was released by this label. This one is a bit hard to find like that Matsuji EP. This comes in a nice and huge fold-out glossy poster sleeve just like the Poison Arts and Sqwad flexi's do.

Kyoto. Their only release besides a few comp appearances from the late
'80s to the early '90s. Shintani(Rapes) and Jotaro(Mobs, Geizz, Tetsu-Arrey) are credited in the special thanks list. The music is pretty good, although I wouldn't say it's brilliant like the forementioned classic bands, but my question is....
well, why the fuck did they decide to name themselves <i>Deep Throat</i>!?!?!?</span></span></div>

Searching" Picture LP - Ranch, 1999(?), Japan, Clear PVC outer
sleeve, Cardstock paper insert & flyer, (RANCH-03/SEL-Six) - $38<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">A hard to find picture LP by this great
Japanese HC band, consisted of the singer Ryuji from the legendary '80s Sendai-city HC band </span><span style="color: red;">Disarray</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">(!!), also Bitousha, Mino-5(w/ Chelsea,
Katsuta etc.) and early Cocobat, the bassist Jun Gray from Sekinin
Tenka, Bitousha, Kenzi and Bradbury(ex. G-Zet), and the guitarist
Kasuga(a.k.a. Gas), who also was a member of Disarray, The Idiot
Idlaters, The Pogo, The Ryders and currently plays in Laughin'
Nose. Sort of like an '80s Sendai HC all-star band, isn't it? As you can
imagine from the past band history of three of the band members,
these guys sure know what they're doing and you know what to
expect from Dessert. If you're into all those classic Burning
Spirits styled, traditional Japcore bands ala Death Side,
Judgement, Bastard, Tetsu-Arrey, Crude or Forward, you'll love
Dessert. Ryuji's throaty vocal style is awesome. They did a great
Disarray cover song "Bad Blood" on the CD version of the "World Of
Fantasy" 7" EP from '98. Both this LP and the EP are well worth
checking out, although the LP is much harder to find than the EP, though. Featuring the excellent artworks done by one of the best
Japanese underground artists, Usugrow, whom some of you may be
familiar with if you're into the hardcore/punk-related artists
like Sugi, Tom or Pushead. Self-released on the band's own label called
Ranch Records, which I believe is a label ran by either Ryuji or
Kasuga, as the recent official CD reissue of Disarray from several
years back was also released on Ranch. Dessert hasn't done so many
releases since they were formed in the mid~late '90s, only the
forementioned EP and several compilations including the Gastunk
tribute album, but I'm pretty sure the band is still active these
days.</span><br />

Brain, 1995, Japan, (ABR-002EP) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Fucking amazing band!! Love this EP so much. In that good ol' dark
metallic Japcore style ala Ghoul, Zouo, Rapes, G.I.S.M., Geizz or
A.T.-Det, but Dilenma played their songs much faster with more
thrashy, razor-sharp guitar riffs. Think of late Ghoul, Demolition
or Rapes. Killer gruff vocals reminds me of Masami! The special
thanks list includes Rapes, The Gaia, ex-Freedom singer etc.
Definitely one of my top 10 favorite '90s Japanese HC records!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Originally released as the limited edition, vinyl box set(w/ bonus VHS tape, sticker etc.) that was sold only at their last show in '88. This is the very rare and hard to find, double CD edition in a hard carton box package(similar to the package for the GISM SoniCrime 1st press CD).

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Execute and early Gastunk-style, speedy
and metallic HC. This is a fucking excellent EP. The rare and only ever record put out by this
Tokyo-based obscure band consisted of the bassist Toshi(The
Execute), the singer Chatara who later went on to join The Execute
in '85 or early '86(after the previous singers Baki and Ichi,
before "An Omen Of Fear" EP release, around the time Chelsea
joined them as a drummer), and the guitarist Jotaro, from the
various other bands include Mobs, Mohawks, F.O.A.D., Last Bomb,
Whip Brains etc. Jotaro currently plays in Tetsu-Arrey. The female
drummer Misa(Kyaah, Rap & Last Bomb) also played in Geizz at
some point, but not on this recording. The back sleeve indicates:
"Produced by The Execute, Toshi" and also Lemmy from The Execute
is also credited. Don't miss this out if you're into the bands like The Execute, Gastunk, Poison or Ghoul!!! The metallic and thrashy guitar riffs are excellent. The Geizz songs also remind me of A.T.-Det!</span><br />

"Gé" (ゲ) 7" EP - Nagomu, 1985, Japan,
(NG-019) - $20<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Gendou Missile's 7-track 1st EP! This band is
sadly unknown to most of people outside of Japan(although they're pretty
big over threre), but they may be known to some of HC fans since their
3rd EP was released on Hold Up/Noise Room Records, which I think is
pretty good. This one is very good and the songs on this EP sound harder
and more HC than the Hold Up EP, though! They had two bass players(wtf?) in their early lineup, but I guess they decided to get rid of one after this EP.
Gendou Missile also has the LP out on Taiyo Records, a label that put
out the Kyoaku-Kyojindan 8" flexi and LP, the Detroit EP etc.</span><br />

</b></span>"I・Ya・Da!" Picture 7" EP - Nagomu, 1986, Japan, Folded
metallic foil sleeve, (NG-028) - $18<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The 4-track 2nd picture EP. The music is pretty much in the vein of the 1st EP, but that one is better, I think. In the special thanks list, Ishiya(Death Side), Mosquito(mid '80s thrash HC on "Nippon Rentogen") and Sister Ray(Kiekiji singer's band) are credited. Hiroshi, the guitarist from Gendou Missile was very close friends with Chelsea(he learned
the guitar from Hiroshi) and he is the one played the guitar for Death
Side at the Chelsea tribute show in 2010. Hiroshi also played in Asylum and The Trash. Asylum's earliest and original lineup includes Chelsea and Ran-Lin, both from Death Side and Poison. Gendou Missile is still active but I don't think Hiroshi is their current member.</span><br />

1995(?), Japan, Fold-out insert, Clear PVC sleeve, (NKO-1) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Here's a powerful 6-track smasher by Gewalt.
An absolute, cock-exploding Japanese HC fist fuck in your face! No
wimpy bullshit here. Like the band name says it all(gewalt =
violence, power, or force in German), this is extremely heavy and
fast, traditional metallic Japcore style that's comparable to the
Burning Spirits type of bands, but Gewalt played their songs much
faster and heavier. The fucking evil-sounding, gruff vocals are
sick as hell. This self-released, nice little picture EP
containing six blistering tunes. Quite rare and hard to come by!
Think of a cross between the traditional Burning Spirits style HC
and the good ol' metallic Japcore ala Ghoul, Rapes, Zouo,
Demolition or Dilenma. This criminal motherfucker Shura Fujimoto
was the singer for Gewalt and he's a pretty well-known douchebag
in the Kansai area HC scene. You guessed it right! Needless to say
that he's always been associated with the other shady thugs from
the area, like the dudes from Rapes, Nightmare, Warhead, Danse
Macabre, SAAG(ex-Crusty Hi Charge), Dilenma, R.O.M. and all that
musically creative people, despite their obvious criminal
background. I think he even did the vocals for Danse Macabre a
couple times live when Cherry was still behind the bars....!! Now
since Cherry's out and free that he and Shura got together in the
new-ish band called S.H.I.(however, I've heard that Shura just
fucks around with some kinda weird noise sampling machine or some
shit)</span></div>

7" flexi - Satsugai Enka Vinyl, 1989, Japan, (ONO-444) - $28<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The only ever record release by this obscure
Japanese noisecore band. They have at least one demo tape out
besides this flexi. Featuring Crazy-SKB from Kyoaku-Kyojindan,
Hi-Technology Suicide , QP-Crazy(has a split CD with Rapes!),
Kill, Moudoku etc on guitar, and the members from another good HC
band called Detroit. The flexi was released on his own cult punk
label called Satsugai Enka Vinyl in '89. Contains 5 trax with the
song titles like "Mad Love Song", "Sennou(Brainwash)" or "Pleasure
Of Blood".... As the titles suggest, their music is totally
brutal, violent, noisy and chaotic HC with ultra-distorted and
noisy guitars. And, the vocals are pretty sick! Would highly
recommend this to those who love jerkin' off to the violent noise
of the bands like Kyojinbyo, Kuro, Coward, Gasmask, Gai, Tranquilizer,
Gudon(early), Confuse etc. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">This
is some sick ass shit!</span><br />

Suicide) </b></span>"Solid Gold Crazy Action" 7" EP - Climax,
1989, Japan, (MAX-4104) - $25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The 1st EP by Hi-Technology Suicide!!! Violent HC chaos!! One of the main bands of the fucked-up psychotic vocalist The Crazy-SKB from Kyoaku-Kyojindan, who runs Satsugai Enka Vinyl label. If you aren't familiar with them, Hi-Technology Suicide was formed in
'89. The Crazy-SKB's biggest influence is The Stalin!! Some of the later
Hi-Technology Suicide releases(after '91) are kinda weird with the electronic/noise edge, but their early releases are straight-forward violent HC/Punk. This 1st EP, the "Hone/Kirisaki Jap" 2nd 7" flexi('90) and the "Headbanging Alien" 3rd CD single('90) are all great!!!(my favorite is the flexi) One of their later members, Honma(who joined them in '91), currently plays in Kikeiji as a keyboardist(!?), and the bassist Tsujimura used to play in Kikeiji(in the '80s), Jiheitai(pre-The Stalin), Kokeshi-Doll(pre-Jiheitai), Barashi(pre-Kokeshi-Doll) and Paranoia Star(Michiro's post-Stalin band circa '87)!!! Yes, he played in three different bands with Michiro Endo and Jun Inui before they formed The Stalin, and even in Michiro's short-lived band Paranoia Star after The Stalin broke up. He is one of the original Hi-Technology Suicide members and plays on all their releases.</span> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69ZYyrcd-80" target="_blank">Listen to "Solid Gold Crazy Action"!!!!</a> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">&</span> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q1JCyRUmJ8&playnext=1&list=PLAOqS_Kw0AXB6Jki8ontKhiggGC5hWOzx&feature=results_video" target="_blank">Listen to "Honé" & "Kirisaki-Jap" ('90 flexi)</a><br />

Souichi(Forward, ex-Gudon)'s old band from Kochi, and he was the

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Nagoya-based band consisted of the singer who used to be a member of Order and the guitarist from Result. I think this band is completely underrated and sadly overlooked. The music is some solid, crusty metallic HC with male/female dual vocals, in the vein of Nausea, Detestation, Reality Crisis, Antischism, Hiatus or Amebix. I bet these guys were hugely inspired by a lot of the '80s~'90s U.K. and U.S. anarcho hardcore/crust bands. This EP was also released in the U.K. on Destroy Records. This one here is the harder to find, original Japanese pressing. This is great. It's really, really good, actually.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Awesomely embarrassing way of misspelling
"hardcore" by this awesomely amazing hardcore band. The perfect

a school to learn anything. Shhh... don't tell anyone that was the
case for the 95%(!?) of Japcore dudes in the good ol' 1980s.

fucked up. Very surprising that he had lived until 2002.... Could be dead much sooner.</span><br />

"Shake Hand" CD - S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet, 1990, Japan, (SS-006) -
$25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">"L.O.X." stands for Lip Cream, Orange, and X.
The project band by Naoki(Lip Cream), Act(Orange) and Yoshiki(X,
the legendary metal band). Act also played a bass for Axe-Bomber
in the early '80s and S.K.V.(Sakevi solo project) in '95. Orange
was a punk rock band from Tokyo that I don't know much about.
Originally called Masami & L.O.X., with the ex-Ghoul singer on
vocals. Their '88 live recording with him is included on the rare
Masami 3CD & 7" box set on Sunshine Sherbet. He obviously
hasn't done anything else with L.O.X. afterwards as he was in a
coma since '89 til his death in '92. L.O.X. was such an unique
project that featured several different Japcore singers doing
vocals for them both live and studio. There's a kick-ass boot live
video with Tokurow(Bastard/Judgement) singing for them
exists(search "LOX Yoshiki" on Youtube). On this 7-track album,
the each song has a different singer(except Toshi on the 2 songs).
The main vocalists are Ishiya(Death Side), Butaman(Tetsu-Arrey),
Toshi(X), Ranko(The Continental Kids), Koh Ito(Fools) and even
Naoki sings on an entire song! Yes, Naoki from Lip Cream doing
vocals & guitars. Mix of wide variety of music style from
hardcore, punk, metal, thrash to rock'n'roll. It's the only ever
release(besides that weird track on the Masami/Ghoul tribute CD)
by them and is on a great label S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet that also
put out the Tetsu-Arrey 1st LP/CD, Masami solo LP, The Gaia 1st
CD, Nickey & The Warriors 12", The Continental Kids LP's etc.
Here's some more useless(?) infos for few obsessive collectors out
there. This label was ran by the same dude from Ducasse
Label(Kikeiji, Real EP's etc.) and Wechselbalg Records, who also
runs I.D.N.(Inner Directs/I.D. Japan) which is a large distributor
that has a HUGE tie to Sakevi, and exclusively distributes the
G.I.S.M./Beast Arts releases. If you're bored, take a look the
credits on your Beast Arts, Ducasse or OK Records stuff.</span><br />

This is their only release with Loony on vocals. Their later
releases, the "Retro Firing" EP and the 12", on Selfish Records
were recorded with the second singer Bondage, who later formed the
great band called Grave New World with the Crow singer and the
Asbestos drummer in the early '90s, and I believe currently plays
the guitar in the Crow singer's another band Kaiboushitsu. After
Bondage left Last Bomb, they changed the music style to more like
the late Discharge style metallic HC and also changed the name to
Final Bombs, with Bear Bomb on vocals/guitar.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Unlike many other Kyushu based bands from the
mid '80s played noisecore and more chaotic sounding HC, Mess(in
their early days) played some really good, rough and
straight-forward, in-your-face HC that reminds me of the "Fuck
Heads" era, early Gauze. That's what they sound like on this 1st
flexi. They later moved to Tokyo in the late '80s and put out the
8" EP and also appeared on the "Get Back The Discharged Arrow"
comp LP(w/ Acid, Crück & Mad Conflux) on Selfish Records in
'89. Can't remember what they sounded like on those two releases
but I think they were in more like typical, traditional Japcore
style. They later changed their music style and released the
full-length CD on Selfish Records in '91 and the LP on Bloodsucker
Records in '99. Those two are in a quite different style than
their earlier releases. This band is probably more known for the
8" EP and the comp LP tracks, but I think this flexi is much
better. All the songs on this flexi are speedy and somewhat
primitive, yet powerful. It's an early Kings World Records release
and this particular copy comes with a rare, original Kings World
flyer advertising The Swankys flexi, Confuse "Contempt..." EP,
"Punk The World" tape etc.</span></span><br />

Japan, Insert & sticker, (New/Unplayed), (FRR-007) - $38<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Solid, speedy and
straight-forward HC like the mid~late '80s Selfish Records stuff
ala Systematic Death, Outo or Lip Cream, with just a slight more
metallic edge. Missing Burn is from Kyushu and this flexi is on SS
Company, the label ran by Flak. SS Company and Violent Party were
the two main labels organizing the local shows, besides putting
out the records and tapes, in the '80s Kyushu area punk scene. All
the SS Company releases are pretty hard to find. The other
releases by the label are the Flak flexi and CD, the Ruin flexi
and demo, the Red House flexi and demo, and "The End Of Your
Generation" comp tape(Flak, Ruin, Piss, Rebel etc.) There's also
the SS Company comp CD called "Broke Out Insanity"(incl. Flak,
Ruin & Missing Burn), which was actually released by King's
World Records in '91. The only known releases by Missing Burn are
this flexi and the comp CD tracks, but they might have a demo or
two out earlier since the band was active from the mid/late '80s.
This is a nice, new/unplayed stock copy of the rare and obscure
flexi. 6 trax.</span></span></div>

"S/T" 7" EP - Self, 1990, Japan, 7" x 7" size large sticker outer
sleeve(white ver.) & insert, (NR-002) - $25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Rare 2nd 7" by Nue, a
super-obscure and unknown Japanese anarcho punk band that was
active in Tokyo circa '86~'92. Nue was one of the VERY few
anarcho/political activist punk bands, that existed in the scene
over there back then, among some other similar notable bands like
Real, Honey Deep Wet!, Theze, Nora or The Wanpaku Junkies,</span>
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">with the strong political
and D.I.Y. stance and message. They were highly influenced by
Crass, Conflict and the Crass Records related bands. Very closely
associated with Honey Deep Wet! and the other Cage Records related
bands.(<a href="http://www.discogs.com/label/Cage+Records+%282%29" target="_blank">Cage Records</a>)
Musically, it's mostly pretty aggressive, fast and straight-forward
punk with a very HC edge to it. I've never had a chance to hear Nue's
1st flexi('88), so I don't know what that one sounds like, though. I
think many of their lyrics covered the animal rights topic and such. As
far as I know these two are the only things they've ever done. The EP
comes in a folded sleeve with a large one-sheet extra outer sleeve.
There are two different colors of the sticker outer sleeve exist, the
black and white ones.(</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><a href="http://www.discogs.com/artist/Nue+%282%29" target="_blank">Nue info on Discogs</a>) (</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nue" target="_blank">What the hell is "Nue" anyway...?</a>) Also, not from the Tokyo scene but the
similar bands from some other areas include Hellnation(Jap.),
Ouch, The
Ballad..... and, well, I really can't think of anything else. Ouch
has a 7" flexi out and appeared on the "Unknown HC Drunkers 2" comp on
MCR. This
long-running Osaka-based band called The Ballad is supposed to be
still active these days. They've done many releases since the '80s
including the flexi's, tapes and several CD's. One of which was
put out by King's World Records in the early '90s, but I have no
idea why and what their relation was. Out of all these early
Japanese anarcho punk bands that I mentioned, Real was probably the most
politically active bands, especially the singer was. Besides the band
he was deeply involved in the anti-emperor movement. I remember when
Hirohito, the Showa period Jap emperor, died on January 7th 1989, he was
part of the riot and was arrested and all that. Those guys were
probably quite similar to a bunch of anarkkkist crusties all over the
world these days. I wouldn't be surprised if the people from Real, Honey
Deep Wet or Nue used to get beat up by Japcore back in the '80s, just
like a bunch of Osaka and Tokyo crusties did in the '90s...(the poor
crusties. Say No To Punk Rock Bullying!?) Am I the only one who finds
ironic how so many Japcore bands getting along with the Western
political HC bands, touring together and all that truly strange things
happening nowadays? Can't think of anything as ironic as this fact, can I? The Japcore dudes, especially the older ones, may not be the smartest people, but they sure are good at pretending to be somebody
they are not, or should I say that having the language barrier might
actually be a good thing, so the Western political punks won't have to
feel disappointed to know certain things they probably better off not
knowing.... oooooooouch!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This one is pretty good. The Kyoto-based HC band with a huge D.O.A. and early '80s U.S. hardcore influences. Featuring a Constricted member. Rockin' driving fast hardcore/thrash tunes with a cool distorted vocals. One of the songs has a Dead Kennedys parody intro. I think this band played with D.O.A. when they toured Japan. This is their first EP and they also have another EP called "Sell Out" on Mangrove Records and the LP called "Hardcore '99" with a D.O.A. "Hardcore '81" parody artwork.</span><br />

EP - Extasy, 1986, Japan, Insert, (EX-002) - $55<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This one is slightly harder to find than most
of the other Poison/Poison Arts releases, and all the songs on
this EP kick ass! Featuring the early line-up with Chealsea(Death
Side/Paintbox) on guitar. Amazing guitar work on all the tracks.
Includes 4 tracks including their early classics like "Over Head",
"Fighting Soldier" etc. The second release by Extasy Records which
was an independent label ran by Yoshiki from X Japan long before
they got huge. The first Extasy release was the rare X "Orgasm" EP

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Their second album(CD-only release) on Captain
Records that came out several months after the "Kick Rock" LP.
Just an additional note: Poison decided to change the name during
the recording of the "Kick Rock" LP(so, technically it's a Poison
Arts release) only because they thought having the same name as
the U.S. hair metal band sucks.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Contains a re-recorded version of the killer
title track tune which originally appeared on their classic "Kick

faster than the original!</span></div>

"Akubyodou"(悪平等) 7" flexi - Oozake, 1995(?),
Japan, 1000 pressed, 1st press w/ orig. sleeve artwork, (Oozake
Record 001) - $58<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Very
rare, self-released 5-track flexi by this Tokyo-based band from
the mid '90s. Their music is like a more chaotic and rawer vesrion
of the Selfish Records-era Gauze, with that viciously violent feel
of the '80s Japanese HC bands ala Kuro or Kyojinbyo. In my
opinion, Pinocchio was one the best '90s Japanese bands although
they're criminally unknown outside of Japan. Wish they've done a
full-length LP. I know that the demo tape exists and would love to
hear it. Some of the members went onto form Geshpenst and Sicks In
Throat. Original 1st press with a spiky-haired punk photo on the
fold-out sleeve. The 2nd press/re-issue was co-released by the
record shop Base and Uramachi Records, and has a completely
different artwork on the pocket sleeve. Yes, this flexi sure rips
fucking hard!! All the songs are full of tension and energy. This
is one defnite record you won't get bored of listening to. I would highly, totally recommend this for <i><u>ALL</u></i> Japanese HC fans!!!!</span><br />

Anthems" 7" EP - Discrete, 1997, Japan, 500 pressed, Insert,
(DIS-18) - $58<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Top-notch Japanese Oi!/skinhead from Kobe.
Heavy-hitting and metallic tunes in the vein of Gruesome, Raiya,
Sledgehammer, Ikazuchi or Strong Style. The whole EP is a killer,
especially the third track "More And More The Fight!!" is a must
hear. This is one of the hardest to find and very sough-after '90s
Japanese Oi! records. Possibly the hardest to find out of all the Discrete Records
releases. R.I.P. also did a split with the Osaka Japcore band
R.O.M. in '02, which is also pretty decent but I think this EP is
way better. Listen to </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8_5FDcEepM" target="_blank">R.I.P "More And More The Fight!!" etc.</a><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Lo-fi noisecore/noise-punk. The center
label says "Beer Cider Noise!!!!!". Contains six filthy trax
including the song titles like "Noise Never Die!" or "The Fuck
Song" and a crappier version of the Gai/Swankys cover song
"Little Star". This was self-released on the band's own label
called Beer City, not to be confused with the U.S. label with
the same name. These guys also released the "Control Noise"
tape on their other label called Damaging Noise. As it says
"Some copies came with a pair of 3D glasses." on Discogs, this
copy is complete with a bonus 3D glasses.(why...?!) I have no
fucking clue what the 3D glasses have to do with this record,
but I see on the back sleeve there's a weird photo of a bunch
of guys wearing the similar glasses, and inside the sleeve there's a 3D artwork/design(well, sort of...) Perhaps some sort of a
nonsense joke.</span><br />

Formed in the late '80s. Yes, their later releases are pretty lame, I must admit that... I guess they played HC only up to the split EP('91) with Filthkick, when they still had the original line-up. I remember not liking their 1st album on Selfish Records so much when it first came out in the late '92. It still sounded HC but was kinda weird, I think. An unplayed, mint stock copy. (P.S.) If anybody wants to either sell or trade a ltd. promo/hard vinyl edition of this flexi, lemme know! I know the promo copies exist like the ones made for the S.O.B./Napalm Death split flexi.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span"><b>SA</b> "Youth On Your Feet" CD - Submission, 1999, Japan, Obi, (SUBM-001) - $20<br /><span style="color: #ff99ff;">This self-released CD contains the tracks off the "Oi Of Japan" comp LP(AA Records, '85), a previously unreleased demo track "No Name"('84), a live track "Confound It"('86) and the '99 re-recorded version of their classic tune "Youth On Your Feet". The '99 track is from their first recording session/studio demo that was recorded right after SA got reformed in the late '90s, when they still didn't have the permanent band members. Jun Gray(ex-Sekinintenka, Bitousha, Bradbury & Kenzi) from Dessert plays the bass on this recording. I have no clue who the other two guys are. I think this '99 version sounds way cooler than the original "Oi Of Japan" version. Although the recording is pretty rough, the rerecorded version sounds much faster, rawer and more powerful. The best thing about this CD is those unreleased demo and live tracks you won't find anywhere else. The studio version of "Confound It" originally appeared on the amazing "I Get Position" 8" flexi in '85! If you've never heard that classic flexi, you're missing out something!!! I don't remember which songs but you can hear one or two tracks off this flexi on the "Nagasaki Nightrider" boot comp LP that came out in the '90s.</span></span><br />

The "Fish Inn" remix LP was the very first Japanese record Bill Laswell has ever produced. He's an well-known producer who has also worked with Motorhead, Ramones, Iggy Pop, P.I.L., Bob Marley, Mick Jaguar, Yoko Ono, Ryuichi Sakamoto etc. I personally enjoy listening to both versions, however most of the Japanese fans say that the additional instruments and over-remix work ruined the original sound. Also, the B.Q. issue has a completely different sleeve artwork than the reissue. Only the ltd. mail order copies came with a flexi and that version is harder to come by.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Post-The Stalin solo project band(= The Gay-Nou Brothes) of Michiro with Jun Shimoyama from The Roosters(Burst City!) and some other dudes that I can't remember. The first full-length release under the concept of what he called "Grotesque New Pop", an essential mix of punk rock/new wave/post-punk, plus the usual Michiro craziness. A year after the several GNP releases, he started the two new bands Video-Stalin and Paranoia Star! While Video-Stalin was very active for about two years </span></span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">and released the two videos and one LP, which contains the original songs and a few re-recorded version of The Stalin tunes, </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Paranoia Star played only a few gigs as far as I know.</span><br />

Punks" 7" EP - Bizarre, 1984, Japan, Autographed sleeve, (BIZARRE
RECORD 002/PS-4039) - $18<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Stalin and ADK influenced, obscure
Japanese punk. Cool, punkish tunes with dark melody on this 2nd EP. Their later 3rd EP, which I didn't dig so much, was released on Captain Records after they changed the music style to much more like post-punk/darkwave, but the
1st flexi(produced by Atsushi Kaneko from The Stalin) and this 2nd EP
are in punk style. The back side of one-sheet sleeve is signed by the
band members in silver and gold markers. I've seen another copy or two of the same 7" with the signed sleeve, but also a few other copies that aren't. </span><span style="color: red;">Additional note:</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> I just found this out recently. Bizarre Records was the label ran by </span></span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Atsushi Kaneko(orig. guitarist of The Stalin) and his wife.</span><br />

</span>"Never Hero" CD - King's World, 1993, Japan, (KWCD93) - (Trade or Offer)<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Very rare! This awesome 5-track CD was put
out by King's World, however, at the time of its release it was as
the "UK only release" and was supposedly "exclusively distributed
in Japan by King's World". That's what the label claimed this CD
to be, and purposely made it looks like it was "The Swankys' first
ever international release" as another joke. So, it has no
indication of the actual label name anywhere on this release, but
instead there's an "EMI" parody logo on it. Also, the artworks and
layouts were purposely done sort of cheaply, as well as some
recording/release info(such as a fake producer name) in funny
English is printed on it. The artworks are pretty cool, a photo of
Watch on the front cover and the usual and odd Swankys style,
nazi-inspired artwork on the back, of course. Originally no tracklist
credited, but the actual song titles were made public by the
label. They are: "I Love Money"(a.k.a. "I Don't Love"), "Cranky", "Fuck My History",
"Chaotic Life" and "I Love You". I must mention that it's one of
the best materials The Swankys did in my honest opinion. Actually,
possibly the best and it's definitely my favorite and I sure
listened to this more than any other releases by them. I do enjoy these tracks even more than the "Very Best Of Hero" LP.
Watch's vocal style here is snottier than ever it was. The laziest
Watch-style vocals at its finest! You gotta hear this to know how
cool he sounds on these tracks. You can hear and feel full of <u><i>THAT</i></u> whole "fuck off" attitude of The Swankys in these tracks, especially from Watch's vocals, if you know what I mean...! That's like what this band's existence was all about, was it?! Another awesome thing about this release is that some of the songs can be heard only on this CD and aren't available, in any version, on any of their other releases. I think that the first, third and fourth songs are completely exclusive to this CD. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think they really are. I'm not sure of the exact recording
date of these tracks but it's supposed to be the previously unreleased studio
recording around the time that the "More Fuck" demo was done. Btw, the recording is pretty raw and rough, which makes it sound so damn rad. Oh man, seriously "I Love Money" and "Chaotic Life" are soooooooooo good! Love the sarcastic lyrics of "I Love Money", too.</span></span><br />

Self, 199?, Japan, Tokyo ver. w/ stamped sleeve & plain black
cassette, (No Cat. #) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Sort of a mysterious, official release that
was put out by one of the ex-Typhus members(don't know which one)
and sold at the selected shops in Tokyo(Base) and Osaka(Ignition)
only. The Base version has a pink "Mangrove" stamp on the front
sleeve, and the Ignition version has a completely different
artwork/layout and the sleeve color is either yellow or pink. The
cassettes used are different, too. This is the studio demo with
some of the tracks featuring the female vocals by Miina Yasue. She
was the band manager/staff for Aburadako and the early Willard.
Later married to Michiro Endo and managed The Stalin as a B.Q.
Records staff. This studio demo contains the earliest Typhus
recording(before Tam joined the band), with the original line-up:
Izumi on vocals/guitar, Miina Yasue on guitar/vocals, Shin on bass
and Taku on drums. Miina played the guitar on some of the tracks.</span><br />

EP - Stomping, 1988, Japan, 500 pressed, (SR-006) -

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Obscure Sendai-city HC band on the awesome
Stomping Records. Possibly the hardest to find out of all seven Stomping
releases?(Dead Person, Lance Lot etc.) This is the only one that has
the indication of "limited edition of 500" on the sleeve. I know that
the "Hardcore Showcase" comp LP and the Tiffanys flexi(my fav!) are also
pretty tough to come by.</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">Super-catchy and rockin' punk like the older
Sendai band The Idiot Idolaters.(they have the 7"s out on
Chicken Shit and appeared on the "Shodoku Gig" comp LP, ex-Disarray) Actually, Under
Beans were formed by Manabu, the ex singer from The Idiot Idolaters.</span><br />

The studio version of those two songs originally appeared on their 2nd and 3rd 7"s that are pretty tough to find. Very nice packaging in a heavy cardboard gatefold sleeve.

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">169% raging '80s style trad Japcore smasher.
All female members.(and they look BAD ASS!) These freaky,

"problem" kids from the shabu-addicted Tokyo HC bands(a.k.a.
criminals) like Accomplice, Geshpenst, Pinocchio, Veihaiz,
Tetsu-Arrey etc. So, yeah.... you know what to expect from
Yumefuda's music, some wonderful kakuseizai(shabu)-fueled, Burning
Spirits HC straight outta Fuchū prison! Nice! This is their only

7" EP - Hold Up/Noise Room, 1986, Japan, 1500 pressed, Clear PVC

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The legendary thrash band that G.A.T.E.S. were
highly inspired by!!! Violent mix of raw thrash, hardcore/punk,
Motörhead and Venom. Very original and essential sound, I'd say.
Includes 4 tracks recorded circa '83/'84. Fucking loud, noisy and
totally raging!! This EP was released after they broke up. Some of
the members, including a super bassist Koh Morota(R.I.P.), went
onto form Doom and F.O.A.D.(with Max from Ghoul & Jotaro from
Mobs/Tetsu-Arrey). Great artwork on a picture disc. One of the
best and harder to find Hold Up Records releases. If you're into
all those recent metal-punk stuff like G.A.T.E.S., Doraid, Sex
Messiah, Syphilitic Vaginas, Metal Skull, Bludwulf or Toxic

- 7" EP - Paank Levyt, 2003, Japan, 700 pressed, Extra outer sleeve,
Yellow marbled vinyl, (PAANK-013) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><i>N</i><i>-O-I-S-E O-V-E-R-D-O-S-E!!!!!</i>!
Gotta love this one if you're into the fucked-up noisy shit. On
this crazy-ass brutal split EP, S.F.P. plays some ultra-intense
and distorted noisecore crust like a mix of Gloom, Collapse
Society, Exit Hippies, Confuse and all that fantastic NOIZE. Raw
and noisy as fuuuuuuckkk!!!! The thick-ass bass line and the
fuzzed-out guitar riffs are absolutely sick, despite the image and
impression you get from the song title like "Summer Never Ends"
and how their side of the center label says "chill out".... And,
the usual Doom, Sore Throat and E.N.T.-inspired stench noise
crustcore from Abraham Cross. Their material here is actually even
noisier, destructive and waaaaaaaaay more chaotic than any of
their earlier stuff. I'd say it's much more in the fucked-up
noisecore vein than the classic U.K. crust style you hear on the
"Peace Can't Combine" LP('94~'95 recordings) on Crust War.
Seriously, some of the noisiest, dirtiest and the most crucial
sounding crust/noise-core you'd ever come across, man... However,
this one is a bit harder to find than most of the other Paank
Levyt releases. (P.S.) Inside the sleeve, there's an ad for the
forth-coming Paank Levyt release(which never came out) by a band
called Mob 2000("Tokyo No.1 Political Thrash Punk"), entitled "Are
You OK? No! I'm Åke!". Who the hell are Mob 2000, yo?!?!</span><br />

EP - Hamakko, 2000, Japan, (浜-002/HAMA-002) -
$15<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Total ripping HC mayhem!!!!! Don't know much about these guys but, wow, this is an amazing split of two completely unknown bands from
Yokohama city. Anarchy Condoms plays totally intense, heavy, and
noisy Japcore with full of distortion. The funny thing is that
their band logo is a Gauze logo rip-off. Raw Ride is in the vein
of Gauze(4th LP~), NK6 or Hammer, but their songs are even faster
than these bands. High-speed, thrashin' Japcore that is an
absolute smasher here. The screaming vocals are awesome, too.
Awesome tunes on this split, with some unbelievablly terrible
sleeve artwork. It's a drawing of a samurai with the Anarchy
Condoms logo symbol on his back chopping the head off of a
mohawked samurai... One of the worst cover artworks I've ever
seen. But the music is incredibly good, good, good!!!!!!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Bandit fucking rules!!! Awesome, speedy
trad Japcore in the vein of Nightmare, Crück, Judgement or
Evance. They appeared on the classic "Starving Dog Eats Master"
comp. The singer from Ai(a.k.a. AI) was playing drums for them.
Crucified Junk is also a great band from Hiroshima, featuring
ex-Googol Plex and Warhead Junk members. A long out of print,
early Blood Sucker label release. This was released on CD only.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Extremely rare and hard to find, original CD on Selfish Records. This album was originally released only on CD format in '93, but later bootleg on vinyl in '98. Here's your chance to own the real thing. It was the last Selfish Records release, and as some of you may be aware that majority of the CD-only releases they put out right before the label ended in the early '90s were made in the much smaller quantity and are harder to find than the earlier vinyl releases that the label did during the '80s up to around '90. Like this CD, also the Assfort "5 Knuckle Shuffle", "Final Bombs "Dooms Day", Don Don "Borderline", Ogreish Organism "Oni", Rise From The Dead "Rock Fan Dead" or both the original Death Side CD's are rarely seen for sale.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Top-notch split release by these Burning
Spirits style HC bands from Shizuoka city, done exactly in the
tradition of the classic Japcore and Shizuoka HC bands ala So
What, Deadless Muss, Innocents, Mental or early Zone. A lot of the
bands from Shizuoka from the '80s~'90s were highly influenced by
Lip Cream and Death Side, and these two bands on this split EP did
it pretty well. Pure raging traditional Japcore at its best. I
believe this is the only release of Raid, besides a few comp
tracks. Sugar(ex-Swindle Bitch) also released the "Live Now, Pay
Later" CD on Discrete Records in '01.</span><br />

Kasumi Sawaki </span>- 7" flexi - Hinokyu Ongaku Shuppan, 1983,
Japan, Clear red flexi, (本質発掘 002) - $15<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Kasumi Sawaki(credited as Kazumi Sawaki on
this release) was a singer for the punk band called
Hinokyu(a.k.a. Hinomiya) that has the 7" out on City Rocker
Records from '84 and also ran Taiyo Records, which was a label
known for some decent punk/hc releases during the mid~late '80s,
like the Kyoaku Kyojindan 8" flexi and the "No!" LP(a killer LP!
w/ Suehiro Maruo artwork), Detroit 7", Gendou-Missile LP, Geil
7", Genkaku Mime 7" etc. On side A of this split flexi(as a
Taiyo Records sub-label release), his solo project plays some
weird punk tunes with, what appears to be, some kinda strange
political agitation or some sorts at the beginning of each song.
I don't know what the fuck this music is. Could be some sort of
a joke, tough. So, while you get some worthless weird crap on
sidee A, the tracks done by this unknown punk band called
Swat(or SWAT?) on the other side sound more solid and far better
than the Sawaki tracks. Swat does 2 tracks here, "Death Boy" and
"Roudousha Kaikyu"(= "working class" or "proletariat"). Simple,
straight-forward and rough punk rock that the music style wise,
I guess not very far from stuff like Typhus, The 4th
International, Nurse(early), Kyaah or The Stalin(early). Yes,
the style wise, and that doesn't mean that I'm saying this is as
brilliant as those classic bands, but here you can check out
the first track from this flexi: </span></span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soUSEPRCoAI" target="_blank">SWAT "Death Boy"</a>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Can't really tell for certain but the

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Not so well known fact that there are two different version of this release exist. The first edition is on New Age Core label, has a B&W sleeve with a folded inner flap featuring the band photos. The second/later pressing is on J.S.R. Records(most likely the same label, changed the name) and has a red sleeve without a folded inner flap. Another release by J.S.R. is a pretty cool and fairly obscure comp CD called "Missionary Brings Of Cataclysm" from '90 or '91. By the way, I always liked this unknown band Shoka-Furyo since I first heard their 1st flexi.(self-released in '87, very hard to find, btw) I can't seem to find any information regarding them though...<br /><i><span style="color: red;">Note:</span> The flexi has a several visible dents but mostly on the blank surface near the center part that no music is recorded on, and they don't affect playing. Played fine on my turntable. The sleeve is in a great shape.</i></span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Toxik Trash is an insane, fucked-up
crust/noisecore with ex-Abraham Cross members. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Their songs remind of some of the other fine
Japanese noisecore bands mixed with the fucked-up rawness of some old
Mexican noisecore like M.E.L.I. or Cagada De Perro. Good stuff. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Heavy Water from
the U.K. is consisted of ex-members of Hellbastard, Amebix etc. Some Jap shop sites like P&D described their music like the classic U.K. metal-crust, but honestly more like metal to me. An extremely limited split release by the two Tokyo-based labels. 150 copies pressed and sold out immediately after its release. Dirty Thrash is the Abraham Cross dude's label that also put out the limited Hellbastard LP.</span><br />

band photos on the back sleeve as well as inside the booklet.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><b>Far East Thrash Army 3 (Free Style)</b></span>
CD - Stinky, 1992, Japan, (SRC-0006-ST) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Wretched / Scamp / Hellchild / Jesus Save / Scrap Tambourine / Pony The Klux - <i>THE WRETCHED!!!!</i>
Here's a rare and obscure comp CD that includes The Wretched,
featuring Chitose(ex-The Comes) on vocals, Matsumura(ex-Gastunk
& The Comes) on drums, and Eddie(ex-X) on guitar. Awesome
thrash metal with the ultra powerful vocals by Chitose!! Scamp was
Iron-Fist Tatsushima(GISM, Crow, Die You Bastard! etc.)'s old band
that appeared on the classic "Discharged" compilation(a Discharge
tribute, w/ ENT, SDS, Raw Noise, Disaster etc.) in '92.
Brutal-as-hell thrashin' metallic HC!!! Scamp kicks ass. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The interesting side note
that I should mention here is that G.I.S.M. is credited in the
special thanks list of this release. It was produced by Seiji
Kojima(I believe Stinky Records was his label) from Genoa and he
was close to Sakevi, so that probably has something to do with
it. And, Hellchild did a G.I.S.M. cover on one of their albums,
so.... Anyways it's quite rare to see G.I.S.M. credited on any
non-G.I.S.M./Beast Arts related releases.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Mellakka / Äpärät / Painajainen / Rutto - Old Japanese boot compilation of classic '80s Finnish HC 7"s. I wasn't sure of the exact release year of this LP but according to this site, it came out in '95: <a href="http://www.finnmusic.net/main.php?62555b54480775535112" target="_blank">http://www.finnmusic.net/main.php?62555b54480775535112</a></span></div>

<i><span style="color: red;">Note:</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Crass-style, large poster sleeve has a couple of visible pinholes with creases and clear tape marks(residues) in each corner from being displayed by the previous owner. Other than the corners, the most part of the sleeve is in a good shape with no seam-splits, stains or any major damages. When it's folded, only one damaged corner is visible from outside. The vinyl looks very clean.</span></i><br />

<span style="color: red;"><b>House Not Dead!! House Not Dread!?</b></span>
- 12" - New Smell, 2004, Japan, 500 pressed, (NEW SMELL 004) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Death Dust Extractor / Chapmans / Housedust
Sound System / Takaaki Itoh - Here's the strange 4-way split 12"
with the weird ass title, put out by the Exithippies' dude's old
label, New Smell Records. Only 500 copies were pressed. The first
Death Dust Extractor release on vinyl. Contains 5 tracks by Death
Dust Extractor, 2 tracks by Chapmans(a techno project by Jo2 of
Exithippies/New Smell), and 1 track each by the other two. I guess
most of the punk/crust fans are trying to find themselves a copy
of this 12" solely for the early Death Dust Extractor tracks,
since the music played by the other three are techno/house/noise
stuff. Featuring the classic "Punk's Not Dread" parody artwork on
the front sleeve.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;"><b>The Human Records Trilogy 1988-1999</b></span>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Bad Vultures / Cracker Jacks / Humpty Dumpty /
Bull The Dougs / War Machine / Contraclockwise - Contains all three rare Human Records releases from the '80s, including the Bad Vultures "Gang Up" EP, Cracker Jacks "Drink Beer" EP and the classic "Japanese Movement Vol.1" comp 12"(Bad
Vultures, Cracker Jacks, Bull The Dougs & Humpty Dumpty), plus the
previously unreleased "Japanese Movement Vol.2" tracks(Warmachine,
Contraclockwise & Humpty Dumpty), as well as the
planned-but-never-released Bull The Dougs 2-track EP!!! The total of 15
tracks of JM Oi!/Skinhead at its absolute best!!! Contraclockwise was one of the JM-related bands consisted of the members who later went on
to form LRF and Blade in the '90s. The Oi!/Skinhead-era Humpty Dumpty
fucking rules!!!!(their HC stuff's awesome too, of course. I heard that
their sound is more like thrash metal these days though.) This CD was released by Real Deal Records(w/ the MCR Company distribution as usual), which I believe was the LRF guy's label, and for some reason it went out of print pretty quick afterwards. It's a new, still shrink-wrapped stock copy.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">S.D.S. / Atrocity Exhibition(C.F.D.L.) / Naüsea - An absolutely killer compilation of some of the best early Japanese crust bands, all from Nagoya. It's a pretty hard to find flexi. C.F.D.L. used to be called Atrocity Exhibition in their early days. Often confused, but their 1st EP was actually released under the name of A.E. and "Crazy Fucked Up Daily Life" is the EP title. The S.D.S. tracks are some of their first recorded materials. What makes this flexi really special is the rare appearance by the Japanese crust legend </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Naüsea, featuring the later Unholy Grave singer Takaho Komatsu and the drummer Nai-chin from C.F.D.L., Rabia, Future Now!, Out Of Touch etc. Ultra-harsh and brutal metallic crustcore ala Doom, Extreme Noise Terror, Sore Throat or Abraham Cross. I wanna hear the Naüsea </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">demos. Anybody?</span><br />

It's one of those few older MCR 7"s that were pressed in a smaller quantity like 700~800 copies. Contains the first ever recorded material by Order, with the original singer, from when they were still playing sloppy and raw noisecore like what you hear on their great "Punk Navigation" 1st EP on Overthrow Records. Think of early Disorder, Chaos UK, Chaos CH etc. I love all the Order releases up to the "Taep'o-Dong" LP, but especially their early noisecore stuff. Their recent releases are boring and kinda lame... Some of the Mindsuck members went on to form Reality Crisis. Noisy and distorted, Japanese style crustcore. Mental Disease, you probably already know. It's a really nice, crusty 'n' filthy comp 7" with a super-crusty sleeve artwork.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">C.F.D.L. / Furan / Disturbance / Unwise - Probably
one of the earliest Japanese crust compilations. Furan and Disturbance
are a bit unknown. I think Furan shared the members with D-Starve. Don't
really know what other releases they have except the tracks on the
FKD(Fuck Kill Destroy, the CFDL singer's old label) comp tape that I
have. The ex members of Furan and D-Starve currently play in the band
called United Front.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">These were the limited, promo/freebie zines given
away to those who pre-ordered the "AA Records, We're Back!" series
reissue CD's in 1991. Doesn't actually say "AA Records Book" anywhere on
it but I remember that's what it was called in the old Doll magazine ad
and the zine originally in a sealed bag with a little sticker on it
which had "AA Records Book" printed on it. Contains mostly the reprints
from the first issue of "P.O.W." and just a few rare early AA Records
ads.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Quite different from their earlier
releases. What they play on this EP is a completely ADK Records
inspired, '80s Japanese style dark punk, with the weird-ass,
insane lyrics like Aburadako!! And, with The Stalin-ish scummy song
title like "Hentai Trash"(!), you know what to expect. All their
earlier releases, the first and second EP's and the split demo
with Chaos CH are great too. This one is a must have for all fans of ADK and The Stalin fans!! Love it.</span></div>

(Punk's Not Dead!)</span> - Photo Book - Sanwa Shuppan, 1985,
Japan, Paperback, Full-color covers, 100 pages, B5 size, (No Cat. #)
- $65<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Extremely rare and totally
amazing live photo book featuring lots of classic '80s Japanese
punk/hc/wave bands as well as a few obscure ones. 2~4 pages by
each band. Color and B&W photos taken circa '83~'84. The front
and back covers are The Stalin. Kuro(4 pages), The Stalin(4 pages
+ covers), Aburadako(4 pages), Sodom(ADK-era!!!), Bradbury(a.k.a.
Bloodberry, Tam's last band! = G-Zet +
ex-Bitousha/Rebel/Sekinintenka members), The Star Club(5 pages),
Kyaah, Kenzi, The Willard, Zelda, P-Model, Malin Conia, The
Continental Kids, Cock C'nel, Machizo Machida(Inu), Sadie Sads,
Bunretsu etc. Most, if not all, of these photos have never been
published
elsewhere. Full-color covers and glossy pages. Also contains the
fantastic 3-page ADK Records article/discography(incl. detailed
pressing infos & release month/year) with Tam's comments, and
some fanzine reviews. Probably the best thing about this book is
that
it has the ultra-rare and awesome looking live photos of early
Sodom from their ADK era, and ofcourse Bradbury!!(Hiromi
looks fucking hot in these pics!) If you're a serious ADK
fan/collector, you
know these bands are the very important part of the whole Japanese
punk history and how hard to even find their photos anywhere.
These are
some of the very few existing officially published photos by them.
Killer
large color live shots of Bradbury's female singer
Hiromi(ex-Rebel & Bitousha) and a few small shots of Tam,
which must have been taken right before he disappeared. This book
was made by a small publisher that
mostly did the underground sub-culture and porno magazines. Oddly,
there used to be a lot of non-major porno
mags covering the punk stuff over there. They were not
widely distributed and you could get them only from the porno
vending machines(!) often seen in Japan back in the '80s. Michiro
Endo appeared as a model in some of those obscure mags and
videos during The Stalin years!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Consisted of ex-Grave Yard singer and ex-Dilenma
members. These guys were associated with the bands like Rapes, Danse
Macabre, Color, Nightmare, R.O.M. etc.... yeah... <i>THAT</i> side of the
Osaka HC scene, straight outta prison....(!?) Metallic HC style that's not
too far from Rapes, Grave Yard, Dilenma or late Ghoul, but
Charisma sounds much more straight forward and punkish, though. If you've ever
listened to the awesome Dilenma 7" from '95(that one is hard to find but really good, btw), think of some weaker,
more-punk style vocals over that same metallic and thrashy HC tunes.
That's how I would describe them, because the vocals are kind of generic. Their second album sounds more metallic and speedy HC and less punk.</span></span></span></span><br />

was secretly involved in all the Dig Worker and Retrospective releases over the

expensive, but decent quality boot CD's(much better than JPC) that seem to be getting harder and harder to find these days in Japan....
No copies were distributed overseas as far as I know. Another rumor tells me that Mitch "SeX" Ohashi(1964-2011 R.I.P.) had to
run away to the country side </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">when some scary people were after his ass.

the Tokyo-based Japcore band called Mino-5 with
Chelsea(Deathside/Paintbox) and Katsuta(Tetsu-Arrey/Extinct
Government), and put out the CD on Selfish Records and appeared on
the "Enjoy Your Youth..." comp LP. The Dessert guitarist and
bassist were/are in Sekinin-Tenka, Bradbury(a.k.a. Bloodberry,
ex-G-Zet), Idiot Idolaters, Laughin' Nose, The Pogo, Kenzi &
The Trips etc. As you can imagine from their background, these
guys sure know what they're doing and you know what to expect from
Dessert. 120% Burning Spirits style, traditional Japcore ala Death
Side, Judgement, Crude, Nightmare, Warhead or Forward. Awesome
throaty vocals by Ryuji and the metallic guitar riffs. They did a
great Disarray cover song on the CD version of this release. This
4-track EP is a totally raging, heavy-hitting HC smasher. The
vinyl and packaging look nice, too. It's on a clear vinyl with
some clear pink mixed. Comes in a glossy perforated
package/sleeve. It's an unopened, old stock copy.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">What an amazing band! This is such a killer
EP. Think of The Stalin, Sekinin-Tenka, ADK Records styled, dark
and mid-paced punk meets lo-fi noise punk ala Flipper. Also I hear
the slight Tokyo Rockers(esp. Friction or Speed) influences in
some of their songs. What you get on this 5-track EP is a fine
mixture of all that good, early Japanese punk stuff. Absolutely
unique and original style of punk rock, I must say. Man, I just
love this record so much. Finally managed to find an extra copy
that I'm able to offer it for sale here. It was released on Pafe
Records, a small label from the countryside of Japan(Toyama
pref.), that put out some other cool records but mostly the new
wave bands, maybe a couple of other punk bands. Every single
release done by this label is so damn rare and hard to find. So, I
might not be able to get another copy again. This is definitely a
hidden treasure of Japanese punk history. The 7" EP comes in a
large, 10" size cardboard sleeve.</span><br />

7" EP - Cyber, 1997, Japan, 800 pressed, Clear vinyl, Insert
& 3 x flyer, (CYE-001) - $10<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The 4-track 7" by this obscure Japanese band. This is some ass-fucking, harsh HC shit that fucks your crusty ears like a drill-spinning rabbit dildo! Anybody familiar with Scamp from the late '80s~early '90s?? It's necessary to mention this legendary band if I wanna go on a rave about Great Invaders.
Scamp appeared on the well-known "Discharged" comp that many of you may
be already aware of, which is the Discharge tribute album(w/ ENT, Raw Noise, Disaster, SDS, CFDL etc.) from the early '90s. Scamp was one of the first bands that the hyper-drummer Iron-Fist Tatsushima played in. The drummer who play/played in many bands including
Crow, G.I.S.M., Die You Bastard!, DxCxR, SSORC, Puppets, The Magnets and
more. Great Invaders' music is quite similar to Scamp(note: their 2nd
album and later), as the band claimed to be highly influenced by them.
Brutal and extreme HC with a slight metallic edge, and with that awesome
Masami-style, crucial throaty vocals. The early U.K. crust bands such
as E.N.T. or Doom come to my mind. I must note that one definite unique
thing about Great Invaders or Scamp is that they featured the slap
bass(!), yep, that huge slappin' bass that all the psychobilly bands
use. How many other HC bands featuring the slap bass?! Well, I can't
think of any, except this another great Tokyo-based band called Hellbent
that played the similar style, and needless to say, they also had a
huge Scamp influence. I guess these three bands played with both HC/Punk
and psychobilly bands, however, the music wise they sound nothing like
psychobilly in my honest opinion, except that they had the slap bass.</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> The only thing is that the bassist slap the shit
out of the bass in hyper-sonic speed that you can't really tell they're
playing the slap bass....! </span>The live shows must have been wild
though. As far as I know, in Japan it's still common to see the various
bands from both scenes(the psycho scene is big over there) playing gigs
together these days, which I think is pretty fucking cool. Perhaps the
bands like Great Invaders, Hellbent and Scamp inspired them doing so.</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff;">In fact these three bands played a few shows together when Scamp did the reunion shows a few years back! Wish I could see them cuz I always liked Scamp.</span></span><br />

Auschwitz" 7" flexi - Cage, 1986, Japan, Clear red flexi, (OP-003) -
$35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Female fronted '80s anarcho punk from Osaka.
HDW was one of the very few political activist bands which was
pretty rare to see in the Japanese punk scene back then. Several
other well known(in Japan at least) bands with a similar political
stance include Real, Theze, A-Musik, and Nué from Tokyo.
HDW was highly influenced by the U.K. anarcho punk movement, Crass
Records bands, and the singer was in a close contact with Colin
from Conflict. However, musically HDW's songs were much more in
the punkish vein than those Crass Records or U.K. anarcho punk
bands. The title track "Tokyo Auschwitz" is a killer, fast-paced
hard punk tune that reminds a bit of The Stalin. Where the chorus
part goes "No more Auschwitz!" is so powerful and great. This
flexi is actually pretty rare and hard to find even in Japan.
Self-released on the band's own Cage Records. Not quite sure of
the correct catalog # as the sleeve does say "003", however the
flexi shows "001". Two versions of this release exist. The band
gave most copies away free without a sleeve, then there's also
some mail order version with a red sleeve which is even rarer. This
copy is the one with a sleeve. Another Cage Records release that I
know of is this great "Cage Omnibus : No!" comp LP with HDW, No
Lip(feat. Roger from SiC/Dead Cops), Real, and MerryGoRound.
According to an old Cage Records ad in the Doll magazine, there's
supposed to be the second HDW flexi released, but I've never seen
that one.</span></span><br />

Japanese press w/ folded yellow sleeve & slick black insert,
Label flyer, (RE-21) - $10<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Nagoya-based band consisted of the singer
who used to be a member of Order and the guitarist from Result. I
think this band is completely underrated and sadly overlooked. The
music is some solid, crusty metallic HC with male/female dual
vocals, in the vein of Nausea, Detestation, Reality Crisis,
Antischism, Hiatus or Amebix. I bet these guys were hugely
inspired by a lot of the '80s~'90s U.K. and U.S. anarcho
hardcore/crust bands. This EP was also released in the U.K. on
Destroy Records. This one here is the harder to find, original
Japanese pressing. This is great. It's really, really good,
actually.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Great 2nd EP by one of the
most well known all-female punk bands in Japan. Their later
releases sound poppier and aren't that exciting but the first two
EP's are awesome! What you get on this EP is speedy and
high-energy punk that's similar to the Nurse flexi, Typhus '80
demo(w/ female vox), or Chu-Doku flexi. Guest chorus by the
members from Lip Cream, Bloodberry, and Laughin' Nose. Kyaah used
to play gigs often with Nurse, Gas and The Comes. The interesting
thing is that when they changed the singer prior to this EP
release, Chitose(The Comes) was gonna join the band however it
never happened(too bad!). Complete copy with an insert and a red
sticker which is actually part of the sleeve design.(a sticker
appears thru the die-cut window)</span><br />

the case for the 95%(!?) of Japcore dudes in the good ol' 1980s. Fuck'n Panx

<div>
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This is the rare original Captain Records pressing, not the recent reissue CD. Most of the CD releases on Captain Records(like this one, the Gas "Reincarnation" CD, The Willard CD etc.) are much harder to find than the original LP's, as the label didn't press so many copies of their later CD or vinyl releases right before the end of the label around 1990 or so. Just a few additional infos about this label, since not much is known about them outside of Japan: Their LP releases have been repressed so many times and tons of copies of most of the LP's were made during 1985~1988. Captain was definitely the independent punk label, however was quite big like, let's say, the almost-major label like Epitaph. The label was part of the magazine publisher called JICC that was making this great monthly sub-culture magazine called "Takarajima"(Treasure Island) which was one of the very few "major" mags(among others like Doll or Fool's Mate) featuring a lot of the underground punk/hc/wave bands back in the '80s(later turned into the porn mag in the '90s...) For those who might or might not care, the sarcastic joke lyrics for The Swankys song "ノーギャラ"(a.k.a. "Pop Rocker", a killer tune by the way) is about Captain Rec./Takarajima, and one line goes like: "Senzuri magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!"(The wankin' magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!) Yes, some bands and fans thought the bands on Captain are "sell out". The funny thing is that this Swankys song is on the obscure Kyushu punk comp LP called "In The Panties" which was released on..... Captain Records!</span></div>

of Honge-Honge or a bit of Psycho Sin. All the lyrics are just the
nonsense jokes or parody of well-known Japanese movie stars, pop singers
and such. "Moudoku" means "deadly poison" in Japanese.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: red;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Produced by Michiro Endo(The Stalin). The Stalin meets ADK Records styled, '80s Japanese punk ala Kikeiji, Aka, Aburadako or Masturbation. This is their 1st flexi(3 tracks) that was originally issued with Michiro's infamous Ing,o! zine. The first track "Seppuku" is a fast-pased, solid punk tune that reminds me a lot of The Stalin songs from the "Stop Jap" or "Mushi" albums. Insanely complicated and metaphorized, Aburadako-like lyrics that make absolutely no sense to me. Nikudan also had the split 8" with Gas.

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This one is pretty good. The Kyoto-based HC
band with a huge D.O.A. and early '80s U.S. hardcore influences.
Featuring a Constricted member. Rockin' driving fast
hardcore/thrash tunes with a cool distorted vocals. One of the
songs has a Dead Kennedys parody intro. I think this band played
with D.O.A. when they toured Japan. This is their first EP and
they also have another EP called "Sell Out" on Mangrove Records

"Akubyodou"(悪平等) 7" flexi - Uramachi,
1996(?)/97, Japan, 110 pressed, Ltd. 2nd edition w/ different
artwork on pocket sleeve & insert, (No Cat. #) - (Trade or Offer)<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">This is the super tough to find, limited
version with the picture of a cop riding a bike(and getting a
gunshot!) on the pocket sleeve, and with a lyric insert. Only 110
copies of this version were ever made, as it's indicated on the
back side of the sleeve. The more-common(although, still pretty
rare), first/standard edition with a completely different artwork
on a fold-out sleeve was pressed in a larger quantity of 1000
copies, and was put out by the band's own label called Oozake
Records.
The lyrics are printed inside the sleeve and no insert came with
the standard edition. This limited version was co-released by Uramachi
Records(which I believe
was a label ran by another Pinocchio member) and the record shop
Base. I'm guessing that the band came up with an idea of pressing
exactly 110 copies because 110 is the number for the police
station in Japan, and assuming from the sleeve artwork these guys
were big police fans. Rare, self-released 5-track flexi by this
awesome Tokyo-based band from the mid '90s that you definitely
don't wanna miss. Their music is like a more chaotic and rawer
vesrion of the Selfish Records-era Gauze, plus that viciously
violent feel of the '80s Japanese HC bands ala Kuro or Kyojinbyo.
In my opinion, Pinocchio was one the best '90s Japanese bands
although they're criminally unknown outside of Japan. Wish they've
done a full-length LP. As far as I know, at least one demo tape
exists, but I've never seen it before. I would love to hear it
someday! The only other known release is a really cool, tour
documentary comp video(also on Uramachi Rec.) that contains the
live footages of Pinocchio, Gaizi, Ai, Liberate, Crusty Hi Charge
etc recorded during the Pinocchio & Gaizi summer tour in '97.
I don't think they put out anything else. The band was active for
only a couple of years, I think. Some of the members went on to
form Geshpenst and Sicks In Throat shortly after Pinocchio broke
up. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Yes, this flexi sure
rips fucking hard!! All the songs are full of tension and
energy. This is one defnite record you won't get bored of
listening to. Highly recommended for any Japanese HC fans!!!!!! </span><br />

Formed in the late '80s. Yes, their later releases are pretty lame, I must admit that... I guess they played HC only up to the split EP('91) with Filthkick, when they still had the original line-up. I remember not liking their 1st album on Selfish Records so much when it first came out in the late '92. It still sounded HC but was kinda weird, I think. An unplayed, mint stock copy. (P.S.) If anybody wants to either sell or trade a ltd. promo/hard vinyl edition of this flexi, lemme know! I know the promo copies exist like the ones made for the S.O.B./Napalm Death split flexi.</span></span></div>

didn't have the permanent band members. Jun Gray(ex-Sekinintenka,
Bitousha, Bradbury & Kenzi) from Dessert plays the bass on this
recording. I have no clue who the other two guys are. I think this '99
version sounds way cooler than the original "Oi Of Japan" version.
Although the recording is pretty rough, the rerecorded version sounds
much faster, rawer and more powerful. The best thing about this CD is
those unreleased demo and live tracks you won't find anywhere else. The
studio version of "Confound It" originally appeared on the amazing "I
Get Position" 8" flexi in '85! If you've never heard that classic flexi,
you're missing out something!!! I don't remember which songs but you
can hear one or two tracks off this flexi on the "Nagasaki Nightrider"
boot comp LP that came out in the '90s.</span></span><br />

Contains 25 tracks. Their classic tunes from the Selfish~Toy's Factory label era re-recordeed with the new line-up. Like the title says it all, they're returned with the total grindcore style.

They also have a flexi out on MCR in '86, but this 2nd EP is much harder to find. 800 copies were pressed. The songs on this EP still sound dark like their 1st flexi, but definitely more punkish with some killer razor-sharp guitar riffs. Crazy SKB(of Kyoaku-Kyojindan, Headwasher, Hi-Technology Suicide & Satsugai Enka Vinyl label) is credited as a guest recording member for this release! The EP title is "Seiriyouhin"(just Google it) and the large photo of a vibrator is on the front sleeve! How can you go wrong with this??

The "Fish Inn" remix LP was the very first Japanese record Bill Laswell has ever produced. He's an well-known producer who has also worked with Motorhead, Ramones, Iggy Pop, P.I.L., Bob Marley, Mick Jaguar, Yoko Ono, Ryuichi Sakamoto etc. I personally enjoy listening to both versions, however most of the Japanese fans say that the additional instruments and over-remix work ruined the original sound. Also, the B.Q. issue has a completely different sleeve artwork than the reissue. Only the ltd. mail order copies came with a flexi and that version is harder to come by.</span></span><br />

The first full-length release under the concept of what he called "Grotesque New Pop", an essential mix of punk rock/new wave/post-punk, plus the usual Michiro craziness. A year after the several GNP releases, he started the two new bands Video-Stalin and Paranoia Star! While Video-Stalin was very active for about two years </span></span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">and released the two videos and one LP, which contains the original songs and a few re-recorded version of The Stalin tunes, </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Paranoia Star played only a few gigs as far as I know.</span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Gakimusha-Rousoku (餓鬼武者蝋燭) (a.k.a. Distorted Samurais</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">)</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">/ Pipyu<span style="color: red;"> </span></span>- 7" flexi - Bleeding Heart, 1985, Japan, Flyer insert, Screen printed sleeve, Clear red flexi, (Bleeding Heart Records 012) - $30<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">OK, both bands here are completely unknown. However, one of the bands on this split, Gakimusha-Rousoku(a.k.a. Distorted Samurais) is somewhat known to the older punks from Japan, mainly for their other flexi release with some crazy-ass title and a funny sleeve artwork. It's got the Japanese title, "Fuck no Suki na Souridaijin", which transalates to "A Prime Minister Who Loves to Fuck". The front sleeve features a drawing of Yasuhiro Nakasone(the prime minister of Japan at that time) flipping off and behind him there's Princess Diana smiling.... That's some weird shit. Check it out: </span><a href="http://www.geocities.jp/ytaddb/A/others/gakimusha.htm">http://www.geocities.jp/ytaddb/A/others/gakimusha.htm</a><br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;">I remember seeing a stack of that flexi sold at every single punk record shops in the Tokyo and Yokohama area back in the late '80s. Pretty hard to forget such a ridiculously cool title and artwork. For this reason, at least just the name of the band is known for some people over there. However, to be honest, their music fucking sucks....!!! It's like some kinda crappy, lo-fi melodic punk rock that's more in the vein of powerpop or some sort... Not sure what exactly this shit is. On another side, Pipyu, another obscure band almost nobody has ever heard of. This is the good one, actually. This flexi is well worth getting just for this band! Unlike the worthless piece o' chinkasu punk played by Gakimusha-Rousoku you hear on Side A, Pipyu(what kinda name is it anyway?) plays some nice, solid sounding, ADK Records style dark punk that I often enjoy listening to. Both their songs are pretty decent. They're titled "Requiem For My Death" and "Dog In My Head". The second track has the cool English lyrics that go like "Dog in my head is runnin' away, dog in my head needs your love, needs your blood, wants to love you. I wanna die like a dog. I wanna die!!" Yeah, I have no fucking idea what the lyrics are about. I found a couple of Japanese blogs talking about this band and one of them described their sound like "ADK type hard punk with a slight HC feel" and I agree. The guitar riffs are a bit metallic but the songs aren't anything like heavy metal. Very punkish, slightly like Kikeiji but more upbeat tunes you hear on the Pipyu side of this split. The sleeve artwork is rad. I'm not very familiar with either of these bands but I know they both appeared on the MCR international comp LP called "This Is The Life" that came out in '87. I've never heard the tracks on that comp, so I can't tell if their music style is the same as what I hear on this flexi though. I think Pipyu put out another flexi and at least one demo before this. Also I remember seeing their name in some old Japanese comp tapes as well.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Not so well known fact that there are two different version of this release exist. The first edition is on New Age Core label, has a B&W sleeve with a folded inner flap featuring the band photos. The second/later pressing is on J.S.R. Records(most likely the same label, changed the name) and has a red sleeve without a folded inner flap. Another release by J.S.R. is a pretty cool and fairly obscure comp CD called "Missionary Brings Of Cataclysm" from '90 or '91. By the way, I always liked this unknown band Shoka-Furyo since I first heard their 1st flexi(self-released in '87, very hard to find, btw). I can't seem to find any information regarding them though...<br /><span style="color: red;">Note:</span> The flexi has a several visible dents but mostly on the blank surface near the center part that no music is recorded on, and they don't affect playing. Played fine on my turntable. The sleeve is in a great shape.</span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">Japanese Vs. Brazilian raw crust split EP that kicks major ass.

<span style="color: #ff99ff;">S.D.S. / Atrocity Exhibition(C.F.D.L.) / Naüsea - An absolutely killer compilation of some of the best early Japanese crust bands, all from Nagoya. It's a pretty hard to find flexi. C.F.D.L. used to be called Atrocity Exhibition in their early days. Often confused, but their 1st EP was actually released under the name of A.E. and "Crazy Fucked Up Daily Life" is the EP title. The S.D.S. tracks are some of their first recorded materials. What makes this flexi really special is the rare appearance by the Japanese crust legend </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Naüsea, featuring the later Unholy Grave singer Takaho Komatsu and the drummer Nai-chin from C.F.D.L., Rabia, Future Now!, Out Of Touch etc. Ultra-harsh and brutal metallic crustcore ala Doom, Extreme Noise Terror, Sore Throat or Abraham Cross.

It's one of those few older MCR 7"s that were pressed in a smaller quantity like 700~800 copies. Contains the first ever recorded material by Order, with the original singer, from when they were still playing sloppy and raw noisecore like what you hear on their great "Punk Navigation" 1st EP on Overthrow Records. Think of early Disorder, Chaos UK, Chaos CH etc. I love all the Order releases up to the "Taep'o-Dong" LP, but especially their early noisecore stuff. Their recent releases are boring and kinda lame... Some of the Mindsuck members went on to form Reality Crisis. Noisy and distorted, Japanese style crustcore. Mental Disease, you probably already know. It's a really nice, crusty 'n' filthy comp 7" with a super-crusty sleeve artwork.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: georgia;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="font-style: italic;">These were the limited promo/freebie zines given away to those who pre-ordered the "AA Records, We're Back!" series reissue CD's in 1991. Doesn't actually say "AA Records Book" anywhere on it but I remember that's what it was called in the old Doll magazine ad and the zine originally in a sealed bag with a little sticker on it which had "AA Records Book" printed on it. Contains mostly the reprints from the first issue of "P.O.W." and just a few rare early AA Records ads.</span></span></span><br />

time, such as this band, Nikudan, Ziga, The Sexual, Confuse on the
Jisatsu Omnibus. Don't miss this great flexi out if you dig this
particular style of '80s Japanese bands like Kikeiji, Aburadako,
Masturbation, The Stalin, Sekinin-Tenka, The Sadist, Shoujo-Ningyo etc.
"Aka" is a Japanese word for "red".<br />

No actual MCR catalog number stated anywhere on this release and also it's not listed on the label discography page either. Effigy started under the name of C.O.S.A.(Cache Of Strategic Arms) with some later Reality Crisis members as well. Dark, metallic, and raging Japanese style crustcore. Awesome 6-track EP. Some of the songs are from their demos. Pretty hard to come by these days. The ex-C.O.S.A. and Effigy guys now play in a new band called Axewield.</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Dooms Day!! This is a fantastic 7-track flexi. They were from either Shizuoka or Gunma prefecture and sound similar to many of the classic '80s Shizuoka city Japcore bands like So What, Deadless Muss, Innocents, Mental, Griffin FZ, Rustler, Zamza etc. Kind of like a more rough and simple version of Lip Cream. Dooms Days appeared on various compilation records and tapes from the late '80s to early '90s. Some of their tracks on those comps are as good as this flexi, while some are not. The tracks included on this flexi are probably some of their best works. Released on a small label from the Gunma area(later relocated to Tokyo) called For The Deaf Records. It's one of only three releases ever done by the label. The other two are the "Corruption" comp LP(w/ Deadless Muss, So What, Jyuden-Souchi etc.) and the "Intensive Care Unit" comp LP(w/ Dischord, Violent Mohawks, Gilmore etc.) Both these comps featured Dooms Day and some bands from Shizuoka, as well as the surrounding countryside of Japan like Yamanashi, Nagano and Gunma pref. The "Corruption" LP pops up for sale very occasionally, but the other LP and the Dooms Day flexi are even harder to find.</span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> </span></div>

Almost nobody knows about this band, but this EP rips hard as hell. Fast and heavy, straight-forward Japcore with great noisy guitar!! Great cover artwork, too. Could easily be on Selfish Records if it came out a few years earlier. Some of their songs remind me of Outo. Down By Law existed from the late '80s to early '90s. As far as I know, this is their only ever vinyl release by them.</i></span></span></span><br />

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Masaaki
Koba from Systematic Death, Bastard and Rocky & The Sweden was
doing this band at the same time he was in Systema. High-tension
melodic punk rock. There used to be many bands in this style,
which they used to be called "beat punk", in Japan back in the mid
to late '80s. I remember Eggs were often listed in the Antiknock
club schedule, playing gigs with many of the late '80s Kings World
Records bands whenever they came to play in Tokyo, especially with
The Spunky Boys, a really cool Kyushu punk band that I like a lot.
This self-released flexi is really tough to ome by, and is the
only record they've done but also appeared on the "Beat Up!" comp
LP Vol.2 or 3(w/ The Spunky Boys etc.), which I believe was put
out by the Antiknock related label.</span></span><br />

three faces just like the second press copies do, but with no
track list or anything else. The later, second pressings(which
seem to be more common) do NOT come with an isnert, but instead
the track list and the thanks list are printed on the back sleeve
around the three-face drawing, and also says "play maximum volume"
on it.</span></span><br />

"Last Revolution" 7" EP - AA, 1984, Japan, 1000 pressed, Poster
sleeve, (AA-005) - $55<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Freedom
is definitely one of the most overlooked Japcore bands from this
era. Criminally underrated in my opinion. Has possibly the
shittiest and the worst front sleeve artwork I've ever seen. If
just see the front sleeve and have never heard their music, you
wouldn't wanna buy it. Inside the poster sleeve there are many
band photos that's pretty enjoyable to look at. Musically, it's
totally in the vein of Zouo, Mobs, Ghoul, GISM, Rapes, A.T.-Det,
The Clay, The Execute, Geizz, Demolition etc. You get the idea.
Dark, solid and metallic Japcore with that violent gruff vocal
style ala Sakevi or Cherry. Really good and heavy shit! Includes 4
tracks, Suicide, Last Revolution, Shit Babies and Freedom System.
The guitarist Belley also played in War Painted City Indian,
Laughin' Nose and might also have been in Mohawks at some point.
The only ever Freedom release and it's on AA Records. This EP is
somewhat harder to come by, compared to some of the other early AA
releases.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The
classic 1st EP by this legendary Japcore band. A very little known
fact that the actual guitarist on this recording was Tatsu who

Days" 7" EP - T.P.C.(Tokyo Punks Club), 1986, Japan, (TPC-1102) -
$25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is a
completely overlooked, 4-track EP that the Ghoul frontman Masami put out
as his solo project not too long after the original Ghoul broke up. Released on T.P.C. Records in '86. What a fucking ridiculously cheesy name for the record label, yes. For those who aren't familiar with T.P.C., it was the label ran by the legendary, Harajuku-based punk shop Jims Inn. Sakevi's Beast Arts initially started out as part(sub-label?) of T.P.C.(they shared the contact address), and until the actual label name Beast Arts was established, the G.I.S.M. "M.A.N." LP was advertised as a forthcoming T.P.C. Records release in the magazine ads. Back to the Masami EP, it
was originally planned to be released under the band name of Masami & the
Bad Lots, which was one of his other bands at that time. The guest
recording members for this release include Tetsu(The Comes, ex-Ghoul),
Yamagami(C.O.P., ex-Gas), Norio(Masami & the Bad Lots, ex-Gas) and
Tatsuya(Masami & the Bad Lots, ex-Gas). Norio was a member of the
late Gas and also played the guitars on half of the songs of the awesome
"Power Line x Shock Line" LP by Masami that came out a year after on
S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet Records. Naoki from Lip Cream played the guitars
on all the Side-A tracks for that album. The music wise, Masami's solo
and the Bad Lots stuff is a bit more in the melodic vein and have some
excellent catchy hooks, but still with that typical Masami/Ghoul style
gruff vocals that definitely add uniqueness to their songs. Includes 4
hard and rockin' punk tunes like "Motherfucker", "Merry Making",
"Idoler" and "Random". The track "Motherfucker" is actually a
re-recorded Bad Lots version of the ultra-classic punk anthem "Oi! Oi!",
originally played by Ghoul!! "Merry Making" is such a killer, speedy
punk tune that's my favorite from this EP. The limited edition, picture
CD reissue of this EP was later done by OK Records in '99, but that one
seems to be harder to find than the original vinyl. OK was a label ran
by Hiroshima(ex-G.I.S.M., Kikeiji, R.U.G. etc.), known mainly for their
quality official CD reissues of the ADK Records and related releases.</span></span></span><br />

Another fine obscure band from Sendai city, where a whole bunch of

notable bands like Disarray, Sekinin Tenka, Rebel, Bitousha, Idiot
Idolaters, G-Spot, Lance Lot, Dead Person, The Vomits, Under
Beans, Tiffany's, Sex Crime etc. An unplayed, mint stock copy of
this obscure release on Disarray's label, Chicken Shit Records.
Speedy, tight and metallic Japcore with gruff vocals and really
awesome drivin' guitar that stands out. Their songs also got some
very catchy hooks as well. Totally original style of HC. Don't be
fooled by the silly band name and title, coz the music is great.</span><br />

way Kuro should be!! Recorded in 1996 when they got back together
for a short period. There was a plan on releasing the album but it
never happened. This EP is much better than the "Fire" EP in my
opinion. One-time only limited pressing of 666 copies. Top-notch
release by these Japanese HC legends!!!</span><br />

The project band by Naoki(Lip Cream)</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">, Act(Orange) and Yoshiki(X, the legendary metal band). Act also played a bass for Axe-Bomber in the early '80s and S.K.V.(Sakevi solo project) in '95. Orange was a punk rock band from Tokyo that I don't know much about. Originally called Masami & L.O.X., with the ex-Ghoul singer on vocals. Their '88 live recording with him is included on the rare Masami 3CD & 7" box set on Sunshine Sherbet. He obviously hasn't done anything else with L.O.X. afterwards as he was in a coma since '89 til his death in '92. L.O.X. was such an unique project that featured several different Japcore singers doing vocals for them both live and studio. There's a kick-ass boot live video with Tokurow(Bastard/Judgement) singing for them exists(search "LOX Yoshiki" on Youtube). On this 7-track album, the each song has a different singer(except Toshi on the 2 songs). The main vocalists are Ishiya(Death Side), Butaman(Tetsu-Arrey), Toshi(X), Ranko(The Continental Kids), Koh Ito(Fools) and even Naoki sings on an entire song! Yes, Naoki from Lip Cream doing vocals & guitars. Mix of wide variety of music style from hardcore, punk, metal, thrash to rock'n'roll. It's the only ever release(besides that weird track on the Masami/Ghoul tribute CD) by them and is on a great label S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet that also put out the Tetsu-Arrey 1st LP/CD, Masami solo LP, The Gaia 1st CD, Nickey & The Warriors 12", The Continental Kids LP's etc. Here's some more useless(?) infos for few obsessive collectors out there. This label was ran by the same dude from Ducasse Label(Kikeiji, Real EP's etc.) and Wechselbalg Records, who also runs I.D.N.(Inner Directs/I.D. Japan) which is a large distributor that has a HUGE tie to Sakevi, and exclusively distributes the G.I.S.M./Beast Arts releases.

band featuring Bear Bomb(ex-Ghoul) on bass and Cloudy(ex-G.I.S.M.)

original singer was Loony(ex-Mohawks & Baws) and the original

The band changed the name to Final Bombs in the late '80s, with
Bear Bomb on vocals and bass, and their music turned into more

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is the rare original Captain Records pressing, not the recent reissue CD. Most of the CD releases on Captain Records(like this one, the Gas "Reincarnation" CD, The Willard CD etc.) are much harder to find than the original LP's, as the label didn't press so many copies of their later CD or vinyl releases right before the end of the label around 1990 or so. Just a few additional infos about this label, since not much is known about them outside of Japan: Their LP releases have been repressed so many times and tons of copies of most of the LP's were made during 1985~1988. Captain was definitely the independent punk label, however was quite big like, let's say, the almost-major label like Epitaph. The label was part of the magazine publisher called JICC that was making this great monthly sub-culture magazine called "Takarajima"(Treasure Island) which was one of the very few "major" mags(among others like Doll or Fool's Mate) featuring a lot of the underground punk/hc/wave bands back in the '80s(later turned into the porn mag in the '90s...) For those who might or might not care, the sarcastic joke lyrics for The Swankys song "ノーギャラ"(a.k.a. "Pop Rocker", a killer tune by the way) is about Captain Rec./Takarajima, and one line goes: "Senzuri magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!"(The wankin' magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!) Yes, some bands and fans thought the bands on Captain are "sell out". The funny thing is that this Swankys song is on the obscure Kyushu punk comp LP called "In The Panties" which was released on..... Captain Records!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: red;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Masami </span></span>"Final
Days" 7" EP - T.P.C.(Tokyo Punks Club), 1986, Japan, (TPC-1102) -
$25<br /><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is a completely overlooked, 4-track EP that the Ghoul frontman Masami put out as his solo project not too long after the original Ghoul broke up. Released on T.P.C. Records in '86. What a fucking ridiculously cheesy name for the record label, yes. For those who aren't familiar with T.P.C., it was the label ran by the legendary, Harajuku-based punk shop Jims Inn. Sakevi's Beast Arts initially started out as part(sub-label?) of T.P.C.(they shared the contact address), and until the actual label name Beast Arts was established, the G.I.S.M. "M.A.N." LP was advertised as a forthcoming T.P.C. Records release in the magazine ads. Back to the Masami EP, it was originally planned to be released under the band name of Masami & the Bad Lots, which was one of his other bands at that time. The guest recording members for this release include Tetsu(The Comes, ex-Ghoul), Yamagami(C.O.P., ex-Gas), Norio(Masami & the Bad Lots, ex-Gas) and Tatsuya(Masami & the Bad Lots, ex-Gas). Norio was a member of the late Gas and also played the guitars on half of the songs of the awesome "Power Line x Shock Line" LP by Masami that came out a year after on S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet Records. Naoki from Lip Cream played the guitars on all the Side-A tracks for that album. The music wise, Masami's solo and the Bad Lots stuff is a bit more in the melodic vein and have some excellent catchy hooks, but still with that typical Masami/Ghoul style gruff vocals that definitely add uniqueness to their songs. Includes 4 hard and rockin' punk tunes like "Motherfucker", "Merry Making", "Idoler" and "Random". The track "Motherfucker" is actually a re-recorded Bad Lots version of the ultra-classic punk anthem "Oi! Oi!", originally played by Ghoul!! "Merry Making" is such a killer, speedy punk tune that's my favorite from this EP. The limited edition, picture CD reissue of this EP was later done by OK Records in '99, but that one seems to be harder to find than the original vinyl. OK was a label ran by Hiroshima(ex-G.I.S.M., Kikeiji, R.U.G. etc.), known mainly for their quality official CD reissues of the ADK Records and related releases.</span>

<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">Matsuji (まつじ)</span> "Dead Voice" 7" EP - Slice, 1988,
Japan, (No Cat. #) - $65<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is
the super hard to find EP unlike any other releases put out by
Slice Records(Poison Arts' old label). This one and the Poison
Arts flexi are the first releases of the label. They came out on
the same day. This EP almost never pops up for sale. Even in Japan
this is rarely seen. Matsuji's music is so fucking brilliant and
the sleeve design is pretty cool too. 6 tracks of drivin' fast
metallic Japcore with some catchy hooks!! Plus, the excellent
guitar riffs as well. The thick vocals remind me of Ishiya from
Death Side/Forward. The songs on this EP are very original and
don't quite sound like anybody else. Matsuji sure knew how to
create their own music style and did it so damn well, especially
how they mixed raging fast and aggressive as hell Japcore and
super catchy parts. If you've heard their awesome tracks on the
"Attack Of 4 Tribes" comp LP on Selfish Records, you already know
how great this band is. Slice Records also put out a few more good
records like the Poison Arts flexi, Sqwad(ex-Ghoul) flexi, Clod
EP, "Nobody's Fault" LP(Poison Arts, Nira-Kodomo, Rose Rose etc.)
and "Game Of Death" LP(Death Side, Ghoul, Poison Arts, Final
Bombs). I like all the Slice releases. Just an additional note...
This EP came out in '88, however, many of the online resource
sites say '85. I know that Poison started their "Slice Gigs" in
'85, but the label was established a few years later. I remember
seeing the first Slice label ad in the Doll mag and ordering both
Matsuji and Poison Arts records in the late '80s. Check out this
blog for a good review:</span> <a href="http://www.fightagainsttheplutocrats.blogspot.com/2006/06/matsuji-dead-voice-7inch85-rare-japan.html" style="font-style: italic;">http://www.fightagainsttheplutocrats.blogspot.com/2006/06/matsuji-dead-voice-7inch85-rare-japan.html</a>

<span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span><span style="color: red;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Mess </span></span>"Get
Into A Mess" 7" flexi - Kings World, 1986, Japan, w/ KWR label
flyer, (K.K 002MA) - $<span style="color: red;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span>25<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Unlike
many other Kyushu based bands from the mid '80s played noisecore
and more chaotic sounding HC, Mess(in their early days) played some really good, rough and
straight-forward, in-your-face HC that reminds me of the
"Fuck Heads" era, early Gauze. That's what they sound like on this
1st flexi. They later moved to Tokyo in the late '80s and put out
the 8" EP and also appeared on the "Get Back The Discharged Arrow"
comp LP(w/ Acid, </span><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><i>Crück &
Mad Conflux) on Selfish Records in '89. Can't remember what they
sounded like on those two releases but I think they were in more
like typical, traditional Japcore style. They later changed
their music style and released the full-length CD on Selfish
Records in '91 and the LP on Bloodsucker Records in '99. Those
two are in a quite different style than their earlier releases.
This band is probably more known for the 8" EP and the comp LP
tracks, but I think this flexi is much better. All the songs on
this flexi are speedy and somewhat primitive, yet powerful. It's
an early Kings World Records release and this particular copy comes with a
rare, original Kings World flyer advertising The Swankys flexi,
Confuse "Contempt..." EP, "Punk The World" tape etc. Never seen another copy of the Mess flexi with a flyer.</i></span><br />

"Gypsy On Journey" 7" EP - Advance, 1986, Japan, Insert, (AVR-002) -
$30<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Self-released,
3rd EP by this legendary HC band from Osaka. The songs on this EP
sound more metallic than their earlier EP's on AA and Hold Up
Records, but still are much faster and more powerful sounding than
their LP that came out a few months after this EP in the same
year. Think of the "Projection Of Astral Body" EP songs mixed with
the early/mid Gastunk, The Execute(post-Baki era) and Poison Arts
style. Not many people talk about the late Mobs stuff, but I dig
this EP and the "Resurrection" LP.</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="color: red;"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Produced by Michiro Endo(The Stalin). The Stalin meets ADK Records styled, '80s Japanese punk ala Kikeiji, Aka, Aburadako or Masturbation. This is their 1st flexi(3 tracks) that was originally issued with Michiro's infamous Ing,o! zine. The first track "Seppuku" is a fast-pased, solid punk tune that reminds me a lot of The Stalin songs from the "Stop Jap" or "Mushi" albums. Insanely complicated and metaphorized, Aburadako-like lyrics that make absolutely no sense to me. Nikudan also had the split 8" with Gas. I've been looking for the "Proletariat-Sports" 8" EP by this band...!</span></span><br />

7" flexi - Joker, 1985, Japan, Clear red flexi, (JRR-002) - $35<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Released
on the same label that also did the Barigade and Kyoaku Kyojindan
flexi's. Joker Records is pre-Satsugai Enka Vinyl. Ningen
Hormone's music is pretty hard to describe. Like a chaotic, rawer
and "crappier" lo-fi version of The Stalin and some of those ADK
style Japanese punk bands. I remember that's how they described it
in some old Japanese zine review. Think of Flipper playing the ADK
style punk like Aburadako, Kikeiji etc. 6 tracks of fast, rough
and obnoxious as hell hardcore punk. Crazy ass lyrics, too. You
can read a better review/article regarding this band on Stuart's
shit-fi site:</span> <i><a href="http://www.shit-fi.com/spotlights/NingenHormone">http://www.shit-fi.com/spotlights/NingenHormone</a></i><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;"> (P.S.)
Ningen Hormone suddenly did a one-time reunion show in '03, with
two other '80s Japanese bands, Aka and Shojo Ningyo in Tokyo. The
unreleased live recording from that show exists.</span><br />

"Nurse II" 7" EP - ADK, 1984, Japan, (ADK-13E) - $65 (Sold)<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Produced,
engineered and released by Tam(The Stalin/Typhus/G-Zet/ADK
Records). Rare 2nd EP with Tatsu(Gastunk/Dead Cops) on guitar and
Euro(The Execute) on drums. The same female singer and bassist
from the 1st flexi on Incest Records, which was the label ran by a
Sha-London/Sex Imagination Drugs singer, that also put out the
S.I.D., Sha-London and Paruo flexi's. While it's not as crucial as
the 1st flexi, is still a great EP. Wish they've done an LP with
this last lineup before breaking up though. This is actually one
of my all-time favorite ADK releases.</span></div>

Japan, 1000 pressed, 1st press w/ orig. sleeve artwork, (Oozake
Record 001) - $68<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><i>Very rare, self-released 5-track flexi by
this Tokyo-based band from the mid '90s. Their music is like a
more chaotic and rawer vesrion of the Selfish Records-era Gauze,
plus that viciously violent feel of the '80s Japanese HC bands
ala Kuro or Kyojinbyo. In my opinion, Pinocchio was one the best
'90s Japanese bands although they're criminally unknown outside
of Japan. Wish they've done a full-length LP. As far as I know,
at least one demo tape exists, but I've never seen it before. I
would love to hear it. Some of the members went onto form
Geshpenst and Sicks In Throat. Original 1st press with a
'spiky-haired punk' photo on the fold-out sleeve. The 2nd press
was co-released by the record shop Base and Uramachi Records,
and has a completely different artwork on the pocket sleeve.
Yes, this flexi sure rips fucking hard!! All the songs are full

one is slightly harder to find than most of the other Poison/Poison

with Chealsea(Death Side/Paintbox) on guitar. Amazing guitar work
on all the tracks. Includes 4 tracks including their early classics like
"Over Head", "Fighting Soldier" etc. The second release by Extasy
Records which was an independent label ran by Yoshiki from X Japan
long before they got huge. The first Extasy release was the rare X

this was the last Half Alive Records release. This great label out
of some shithole in the Nagano or Yamanashi prefecture put out
only three other records, the Re Zist flexi, Juden Souchi flexi
and Gazize flexi in the mid '80s. This Re Zist EP is somewhat
harder to find than the other three records. On the 1st flexi,
they had a metallic HC/Punk style, but on this EP they played some
cool ADK Records style, dark and solid punk. If you wanna hear
their earlier metallic HC style, I wouldn't recommend this one but
if you dig all that good, ADK influenced '80s Japanese punk,
check this one out!</span></span><br />

Formed in the late '80s. Yes, their later releases are pretty lame, I must admit that... I guess they played HC only up to the split EP('91) with Filthkick, when they still had the original line-up. I remember not liking their 1st album on Selfish Records so much when it first came out in the late '92. It still sounded HC but was kinda weird, I think. An unplayed, mint stock copy. (P.S.) If anybody wants to either sell or trade a ltd. promo/hard vinyl edition of this flexi, lemme know! I know the promo copies exist like the S.O.B./Napalm Death split.</span></span></span></div>

The songs on this EP still sound dark but more punkish with some killer razor-sharp guitar riffs.

Also the EP title is "Seiriyouhin" and the large photo of a vibrator is on the front sleeve! How can you go wrong with this??</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is
a pretty rare and unknown release on Ikka-Shinju's Premium
Records. This is a really good EP. Very obscure one here. Includes
6 tracks of fucking killer metallic Japcore smasher. As far as I
know it's the only non Ikka-Shinju release that was put out on
their label. I don't have much information about this band except
I know this 7" is the only thing they ever put out besides the
"I'll Gather Up" comp 8" tracks. The songs on this EP are way
better than the comp tracks, though. Wicked full-color sleeve
artwork. Note: The band name is supposed to be pronounced in the
Japanese way "Sāmé"(means a shark) not like the English
word "Same".</span></div>

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Legendary Shizuoka-city Japcore! Produced by Minoru from Lip Cream. Split release by Selfish Records and Lip Cream's Dynamite label. This is one of the very few last Selfish Records releases that rarely pop up for sale, like the Gauze 3rd LP('91), Death Side/Chaos UK split CD('93), Death Side 2nd LP('91), Assfort CD('91), Acid 2nd LP('91) etc. </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">While most of the Selfish releases before '90 were pressed in the large quantity of a few thousand each or more, the later ones that came out a little before the label ended were pressed in the much smaller quantity and probably no represses either. Anyways, this last So What EP is awesome and is much better than their split with The Rustler in my opinion. </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">6 tracks of blazing Burning Spirits style, top-notch quality Japcore at its best. Can't believe this was their last release though. The whole EP rules! They should have done a full-length LP with this last lineup before breaking up....!!!!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Sqwad (a.k.a. Ghoul II)<span style="color: red;"> </span></span>"Set Free Me Out" 7" flexi - Slice, 1989, Japan, 1500 pressed, Poster sleeve & insert, (No Cat. #) - $25<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The tracks from this flexi were reissued as a bonus CD(also contains an unreleased Ghoul track) that came with the official Ghoul DVD in '08. Here's the crazy detailed info about this band featuring the Ghoul frontman Masami(R.I.P.), including some interesing facts about Ghoul that many of their fans might or might not be aware of. I'd like to provide a bit complicated, but the most accurate history and information of Ghoul that you sure won't find elsewhere. The original Ghoul broke up in '85, as there's the official VHS entitled "Last Gig" out on ACC Video label. The band got back together as "Ghoul II" with a different line-up in the late '86(or possibly in the early '87), changed the name to Sqwad(originally called Masami with Sqwad) sometime during the summer of '88, either right before or after they played the "Complete Death" show at the Toshima Public Hall in Tokyo on July 17th '88, then broke up and got back together again as "Ghoul III" in '89 with just a slightly different line-up than "Ghoul II"and pretty much remained active until Masami puked the blood on the stage and went into a coma afterwards in the early '90s. "Ghoul II" and "Ghoul III"....? Well, that's exactly how Masami called themselves when they got reformed twice and those names were often mentioned in the interviews, magazine articles and that's how they were usually listed in the gig flyers as well. As most of the serious fans probably noticed, they're credited as "Sqwad(ex-Ghoul)" on the "Complete Death Live" VHS tape(released on January 1st '89), however, in the flyers for this show they were still listed as "Ghoul II". So, I assume they changed the name to Sqwad right before this show or after but sometime before the VHS came out. I'm not certain if they actually played that show as Sqwad or Ghoul II. Anyways, they played as Sqwad during the year of '89, released this 7" flexi on Slice Records(Poison Arts' label) and broke up before the mid '89 if I remember correctly. As I mentioned earlier, they got back together again later the same year(before the summer). The Ghoul tracks you find on the "Game Of Death"(Slice Omnibus Vol.2) comp LP(w/ Death Side, Poison Arts & Final Bombs) are the only recorded material by "Ghoul III", although they're simply credited as Ghoul on this release. This comp LP was released in July '89. The Ghoul tracks included on this LP are so awesome, by the way. These alternate names were sort of like the nicknames that the band members and fans were often using, to separate the later two from the original Ghoul. Additionally, here's the known line-up changes: Ghoul II(Sqwad): Masami(Vo.), Arano(Gu.), Montess(Ba.) and Nemoto(Dr.) ~ Ghoul III: Masami(Vo.), Muttcha(Gu.), Arano(Ba.) and Nemoto(Dr.) During these years, as far as I know the line-up changed at least a couple of more times and another member that played in Ghoul III at some point is the guitarist from Worms' Meat(the band was named by Masami) as a bassist. Nemoto also played in the bands like Poison Arts and Final Count. Arano also played in the band called Miscreant which was another short-lived band Masami did vocals for. After the original Ghoul broke up and until the early '90s, Masami also had a few other bands/projects like The Bad Lots(w/ Norio from the late Gas), Masami & L.O.X.(w/ Naoki from Lip Cream) and Bull Power. After his death, Masami & L.O.X. changed the name to L.O.X. and played a few shows(with the various members including the singer Tokurow from Bastard) and released the CD/double LP with the various singers from the bands like X, Death Side, Tetsu-Arrey etc. The guitarist was Naoki from Lip Cream and the drummer was Yoshiki from X the whole tire time. Norio from The Bad Lots and Naoki were also some of the guest recording members for Masami's great solo album called "Power Line x Shock Line", which was released by S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet Records in '87.</span></span></div>

A year after the several GNP releases, he formed the new bands Video-Stalin and Paranoia Star. While Video-Stalin was around for about two years and very active, as far as I know Paranoia Star played only a few gigs and released one LP which contains a few re-recorded early tunes of The Stalin.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-style: italic;">Kikeiji
+ Masturbation!!</span><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;"> Transformer was a short-lived ADK Records-related
band consisted of ex-Masturbation singer Hiryu,
ex-Kikeiji/Aburadako guitarist Hiroshi, and Tatsushi who played in
both Kikeiji and Masturbation. 100% ADK Records sound! Think of a
cross between Kikeiji, The Stalin, Sekinin-Tenka and Masturbation.
Awesome dark and solid sounding hard punk, but Transformer's songs
are more uptempo, punkish and not as gloomy as Masturbation. I'd
say they're much more comparable to The Stalin or Kikeiji. Great
record! Worth checking it out if you're into the ADK related and
similar bands. Needless to say this 12" is very rare and really
tough to come by. It's the original first press on black vinyl.
Oddly, the second press is on a picture disc that comes in the

(AA-017) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The 1st
EP by this legendary band from Osaka, featuring the singer
Sin(R.I.P., ex-Mohawks & Mobs), the guitarist
Belley(ex-Freedom & Laughin' Nose), the drummer Toshi(ex-Mobs)
and the bassist Funnyara(ex-The Bones). Motörhead and U.K.
inspired, drivin' metallic HC/Punk. They've also released the
great "Terror Boogie" 12" on AA Records. Broke up in '87 and got
reformed as 'City Indian' with a new lineup including the ex-Outo
guitarist Katsumi and put out the CD "Howling On Fire" in '89,
which was officially reissued with a bonus live video footage
several years ago.</span></span><br />

All the late '80s CD releases by Captain Records, such as the Gas "Reincarnation", Lip Cream "Kill Ugly Pop" etc are much harder to find than the original LP's.</i></span></span><br />

<span style="color: red;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Woes </span></span>"Time-Bomb!/Chinpira(I'm Not Down)" 7"
flexi - W-Music, 1987, (W-001) - $25<i><br />
</i><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">An
obscure but a killer release here. Fast and raging HC smasher with a
thrash metal influence, but not too metallic. The songs are slightly
melodic and catchy at times. I don't know anything about this band
except that they were from Osaka and as far as I know, this is the only
record they've ever done. And, another unknown, Osaka based '80s HC band that I really, really like, called CD. Synapse, is listed in the special thanx list for this release. Fans of the bands like Inzest, Gastunk, Poison
Arts, Ghoul, Zadkiel, Doraid or G.A.T.E.S. should enjoy this a lot. The
front sleeve says "Slash The Thrash, 1987". Sounds pretty cool. I know
some collectors of Japanese metal are also looking for this flexi
lately, but I must say that the music wise Woes definitely fit more in the
HC/Punk category better. Found a blog post with a download link here: </span><i><a href="http://philippines80shardcore.blogspot.com/2011/08/woes-time-bomb-7-flexi-1987.html">http://philippines80shardcore.blogspot.com/2011/08/woes-time-bomb-7-flexi-1987.html</a></i><br />
<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: lime;">P.S. Just got this pretty interesting info from a trusted source. Woes was the band led by Warzy, the vocalist/guitarist from Inzest. He has played in several other punk/hc and metal bands, and currently plays in the well-known Japanese thrash metal bands, Narcotic Greed and Hate Beyond. And, I saw Woes and Inzest mentioned in the history page of Warzy's site: </span></span><i><a href="http://warzy.info/w_history_1.html">http://warzy.info/w_history_1.html</a> </i><span style="color: lime; font-style: italic;">Here's an Wiki page: </span><a href="http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/WARZY"><i>http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/WARZY</i></a><br />

"Hell's Bomber" Picture 7" EP - Hold Up/Noise Room, 1986, Japan,
1500 pressed, Clear PVC sleeve, (NRR-E011) - $45<br />
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The
legendary thrash band that G.A.T.E.S. were highly inspired by!!!
Violent mix of raw thrash, hardcore/punk, Motörhead and
Venom. Very original and essential sound, I'd say. Includes 4
tracks recorded circa '83/'84. Fucking loud, noisy and totally
raging!! This EP was released after they broke up. Some of the
members, including a super bassist Koh Morota(R.I.P.), went onto
form Doom and F.O.A.D.(with Max from Ghoul & Jotaro from
Mobs/Tetsu-Arrey). Great artwork on a picture disc. One of the
best and harder to find Hold Up Records releases. If you're into
all those recent metal-punk stuff like G.A.T.E.S., Doraid, Sex
Messiah, Syphilitic Vaginas, Metal Skull, Bludwulf or Toxic
Holocaust and haven't heard Zadkiel, you're missing big time!!!</span><br />

<span style="color: red;"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Early release by Overthrow Records. Both are unknown but pretty good Japcore bands from the Nagoya area.

This album was originally released only on CD format in '93, but later bootleg on vinyl in '98. Here's your chance to own the real thing. It was the last Selfish Records release, and as some of you may be aware that majority of the CD-only releases they put out right before the label ended in the early '90s were made in the much smaller quantity and are harder to find than the earlier vinyl releases that the label did during the '80s up to around '90. Like this CD, also the Assfort "5 Knuckle Shuffle", "Final Bombs "Dooms Day", Don Don "Borderline", Ogreish Organism "Oni", Rise From The Dead "Rock Fan Dead" or both the original Death Side albums on CD are rarely seen for sale.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><i>OK, both bands here are completely unknown. However, one of the bands on this split, Gakimusha-Rousoku(a.k.a. Distorted Samurais) is somewhat known to the older punks from Japan, mainly for their other flexi release with some crazy ass title and sleeve artwork. It's got the Japanese title, "Fuck No Suki Na Souridaijin", which transalates to "A Prime Minister Who Loves to Fuck". The front sleeve features a drawing of Yasuhiro Nakasone(the Jap prime minister at that time) flipping off and behind him there's Princess Diana smiling: </i></span><a href="http://www.geocities.jp/ytaddb/A/others/gakimusha.htm" style="font-style: italic;">http://www.geocities.jp/ytaddb/A/others/gakimusha.htm</a><br />
<i style="color: #ff99ff;">I remember seeing a stack of that flexi sold at every single punk record shops in the Tokyo and Yokohama area back in the late '80s. Pretty hard to forget such a ridiculously cool title and artwork. For this reason, at least just the name of the band is known for some people over there. However, to be honest, their music fucking sucks....!!! It's like some kinda crappy, lo-fi melodic punk rock that's more in the vein of powerpop or some sort... Not sure what exactly this shit is. On another side, Pipyu, another obscure band almost nobody has heard of. This flexi is well worth getting just for this band! Unlike the worthless piece o' chinkasu rock played by Gakimusha-Rousoku you hear on Side A, Pipyu(what kinda name is it anyway?) plays some nice, solid sounding dark ADK Records style punk that I often enjoy. Both their songs are pretty decent, actually. They're titled "Requiem For My Death" and "Dog In My Head". The second track has the cool English lyrics that go like "Dog in my head is runnin' away, dog in my head needs your love, needs your blood, wants to love you. I wanna die like a dog. I wanna die!!" Yeah, I have no fucking idea what the hell these lyrics are about. I found a couple of Japanese blogs talking about this band and one of them described their sound like "ADK type hard punk with a slight HC feel" and I agree. The guitar riffs are a bit metallic but the songs aren't anything like heavy metal. Very punkish, slightly like Kikeiji but more upbeat tunes you hear on the Pipyu side of this split. The sleeve artwork looks really cool. I'm not very familiar with either of these bands but I know they both appeared on the MCR international comp LP called "This Is The Life" that came out in '87. I've never heard the tracks on that comp, so I have no idea if their music style is the same as what I hear on this flexi though. I think Pipyu put out another flexi and at least one demo before this. Also I remember seeing their name in some old Japanese comp tapes as well.</i></div>

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Not so well known fact that there are two different version of this release exist. The first edition is on New Age Core label, has a B&W sleeve with a folded inner flap featuring the band photos. The second/later pressing is on J.S.R. Records(most likely the same label, changed the name) and has a red sleeve without a folded inner flap. Another release by J.S.R. is a pretty cool and fairly obscure comp CD called "Missionary Brings Of Cataclysm" from '90 or '91. By the way, I always liked this unknown band Shoka-Furyo since I first heard their 1st flexi(self-released in '87, very hard to find). I can't seem to find any info regarding them though...<br /><span style="color: red;">Note:</span> The flexi has a several visible dents but mostly on the blank surface near the center part that no music is recorded on, and they don't affect playing.

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Japanese Vs. Brazilian raw crust split EP that kicks major ass.

(Triangle Six of Death) -</span> <span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is an awesome 4-way split LP.
The Matsuji tracks are the fucking killer!!! Even better than
their EP. If you never heard Matsuji before, they did an
excellent(and VERY hard to find) EP called "Dead Voice" on Poison
Arts' old label Slice Records and also appeared on a great
"Nobody's Fault" comp LP on the same label. Violent sounding,
heavy Japcore with the mean-as-hell vocals! Nice metallic guitar
riffs and solos that sure will appeal to those who dig the Poison
Arts or Gastunk style guitar style. F.O.A.D. was a short-lived
band consisted of Max(ex-Ghoul), Jotaro(Tetsu-Arrey, ex-Mohawks,
Mobs, Geizz and Whip Brain), Youichi(ex-Zadkiel!!!) and Tatsuya
Nakamura(ex-Masturbation, The Stalin, The Star Club, Nickey &
The Warriors, Oxydoll, The Genbaku Onanies etc. Currently plays in
Friction) The Motorhead-inspired, tight and drivin' metal-punk!
Pretty wild and tough shit. Guest guitar appearance by
Reika(Colored Ricemen, ex-Mess, JhaJha & Reika, Human Arts
etc.) This is their only ever released material on vinyl. Hold
Up(Noise Room) Records planned to release their EP and also
include them on the "Hold Up Omnibus" Vol.2 EP that never came
out. Those were noted in some of the label ads in the old Japanese
zines but unfortunately never been released....!! The guitarist
Max reformed the band with a totally different line-up in the
early '90s and released a CD which sucked so badly. They turned
into some kinda generic hard rock band. They got back together
once again sometime in the early 2000's and their music got even
worse. I don't know what the fuck went wrong in the mind of that
original guitarist from the legendary Ghoul. As far as I know he
started to play some sort of the Korn or Limp Bizkit type
"nu-metal" shit in the newly reformed F.O.A.D. I guess he just
wanted to use the same name for a completely different band.
Another band on this LP, 666(Triangle Six of Death) might not
sound familiar to the punk fans, but they played killer thrash
metal in the vein of early Casbah. Very HC influenced, skull
crushing thrash metal. Those who dig the '80s crossover
hardcore/thrash bands might enjoy their songs too. One of their
tracks, "Born To Die" is a total smasher!! Besides this comp.,
they only released the two demo tapes. Check out some of their
songs and the live videos on the ex member's site here: </span><i><a href="http://www.geocities.jp/taka_a2/666.htm">http://www.geocities.jp/taka_a2/666.htm</a></i>
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Overall
this is an excellent compilation. Includes 5 tracks each by Poison
Arts and Matsuji. 3 tracks each by F.O.A.D. and 666. Oh, and all
the Poison Arts tracks here are really, really good, of course.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Z / S.D.S. / Don Don / Dooms Day / Beyond Description / Jhishin-Kajoh(自信過剰) / Bullshit / Fuck Geez - What makes this tape awesome is that it contains the rare Z tracks recorded in 1986 and 1988 when they were still playing raw-as-fuck noisecore. The '86 track might be from the demo tape that came out prior to the "Violent Action" flexi('86). The other track "Not Dead" should be completely unreleased elsewhere. The comp tape itself was released in 1990, but their tracks are older recordings. Their split EP tracks from 1991 sounded pretty different and aren't as good as the earlier stuff. That one doesn't seem so popular among fans. The "I'll Gather Up" comp 8" also has the late '80s material by Z. This tape also has some of the earliest S.D.S. materials which aren't included on any of their other releases. This is the rare original copy with the labels on both sides of the cassette. I think it was put out by the Z member. </span></div>

Like the copies I've seen on ebay rarely has the insert and this is the reason why. My personal copy comes with a large folded insert, so I can include a photocopy of it in this one I'm selling.</span></span></span></div>

Often confused, but their 1st EP was actually released under the name of A.E. and "Crazy Fucked Up Daily Life" is the EP title. The S.D.S. tracks are some of their first recorded materials. What makes this flexi really special is the rare appearance by the Japanese crust legend </span><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Naüsea, featuring the later Unholy Grave singer Takaho Komatsu.

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is
a killer 3-way split EP that's pretty hard to come by(and a bit
expensive in Japan these days coz Order is big overthere),
compared to many of the other MCR compilations from the '90s. It's
one of those few older MCR 7"s that were pressed in a smaller
quantity like 700~800 copies. Contains the first ever recorded
material by Order, with the original singer, from when they were
still playing sloppy and raw noisecore like what you hear on their
great "Punk Navigation" 1st EP on Overthrow Records. Think of
early Disorder, Chaos UK, Chaos CH etc. I love all the Order
releases up to the "Taep'o-Dong" LP, but especially their early
noisecore stuff. Their recent releases are boring and kinda
lame... Some of the Mindsuck members went on to form Reality
Crisis. Noisy and distorted, Japanese style crustcore. Mental
Disease, you probably already know. It's a really nice, crusty 'n' filthy comp 7" with a super-crusty sleeve artwork.</span></span><br />

90% of the compilations put out by MCR are just a bunch of
mediocre piece o' shit....(c'mon, let's be honest) Corrosion plays
some good ol' Kyushu style noisecore and Goddamn Bull has the
Burning Spirits Japcore sound. I've always liked Chaos, and cheers
to Carcass Grinder for often using the Evangelion artworks on
their releases(incl. this 7") as I'm a big Eva fan! The music on
this 7" is pretty good overall, but the best thing about it is the
sleeve design, though. Love that killer artwork. Whoever drew this

Killer band line-up with wide variety of music including hardcore/punk, grindcore, thrash/death metal, industrial, noise/avant etc. A crazy compilation, indeed. What makes this CD special is that the rare appearance by Tetsu-Arrey, S.K.V. and Brain Shakes. S.K.V., the G.I.S.M. frontman Sakevi's infamous noise/avant/experimental project</span><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">. The name stands for Swastika Kozmic Victorz, She Killed Vicoius, or Slug Kidney Vivisection. Contains S.K.V.'s first recorded material and on this recording Jojo Hiroshige from Hijokaidan(king of noise!) plays the guitar!!!(yes, you heard it, right. Jojo on guitar. Sakevi + Jojo = !?!?!?) The S.K.V. page in the booklet features another twisted and weird collage art with some hidden political theme done by Sakevi-chan. I wonder if the guy Carlos that's listed in his thanx list is the singer from Jesus Save. Sakevi/GISM are/were very close to Genoa and those Strange Records and Stinky Records related thrash bands. Yes, I pay attention to such a small detail. Kinda geeky, I know... Besides this one and "The War" CD('04), there's another compilation called "N.O.S."('95) that S.K.V. appeared on. Tetsu-Arrey with one of their earlier recorded materials and their track here is an absolute smasher! Really powerful and thrashy. The guitar riffs sound a bit more metallic than any of their other stuff I've heard. The guitarist who played on this recording is different from the one on the 1st LP and is not Jotaro either. I think it's the only recording with this guitarist. The song "Starting Over" was later re-recorded for their 1st EP with a different lineup(w/ Jotaro on guitars) in '96, however this '93 original version sounds quite different from the EP version and is much, much better. Brain Shakes was a short-lived, Motörhead lovin' band by Ghost(ex-Ghoul & G.I.S.M. bassist). He does the vocals and plays the bass on this CD. Not so many people even heard of them but they have a full-length CD called "Go Go Brainshakes"(Strange Rec., '93) out under the name of Ghost, with the guest guitarists and drummers from Gauze, City Indian, Casbah etc.</span></span></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: georgia;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="font-style: italic;">These were the limited promo/freebie zines given away to those who pre-ordered the "AA Records, We're Back!" series reissue CD's in 1991. Doesn't actually say "AA Records Book" anywhere on it but I remember that's what it was called in the old Doll magazine ad and the zine originally in a sealed bag with a little sticker on it which had "AA Records Book" printed on it. Contains mostly the reprints from the first issue of "P.O.W." and just a few rare early AA Records ads.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff;"><span style="font-style: italic;">This is their second full-length album that came out a year after the "wood" cover album which was released by J.A.P.(Tokuma Japan) Records in '85. This LP was self released by the band. I know, not so many people outside of Japan actually pay so much attention to Aburadako's post-ADK releases. But I must say that, at least a few early ones are well worth checking out if you're a fan. All their releases are entitled "Aburadako" except one single called "Yokujitsu", so each one of the albums have sort of a nickname to it, like the one with the wood design is called "Ki-ban"(the Wood album), this one here is "Ao-ban"(the Blue album) and the one with the picture of a turtle on the cover is "Kame-ban"(the Turtle album) etc. I'd say that any Aburadako fans should check out the "wood" and the "blue" ones. These LP's are simply amazing and contain many of the classic tunes that they still play live and are loved by the long-time Aburadako fans in Japan. And, I don't think these LP's sound that far from the style you hear on their ADK stuff. But anything that came out after this LP(the next one is the "turtle" LP from '89), I wouldn't recomemnd them if you're strictly into only punk and hardcore music. The song stracture of most of the songs written since the "turtle" LP came out until now are extremely complicated(although their music has never been so simple from the beginning anyway!) and I guess you can say that they're too "progressive", and are definitely way too far from the early releases up to the mid '80s. I personally enjoy anything they put out even the recent stuff though. These guys are seriously some kinda musical genius and the music they create is just so insane and nothing ordinary. Also most of their lyrics are way too complicated that I hardly ever get a clear idea of what they the fuck they are about. Oh, but the single that came out in '04 called "Yokujitsu" is highly recommended. It contains a crazy, 25 minute-long live version of the song from the "wood" LP. It's the CD reissue of the rare limited CD-R that was self released and sold by the band at their shows in '02. If anybody wants a CD-R copy of it, let me know.</span></span><br />

Don't miss this great flexi out if you dig this particular style of '80s Japanese bands like Kikeiji, Aburadako, Masturbation, The Stalin, Sekinin-Tenka, The Sadist, Shoujo-Ningyo etc. "Aka" is a Japanese word for "red".</span></span> </span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">For those who aren't familiar with this essential, highly influencial band, Allergy was very well known in the early Japanese punk scene. The music isn't HC, but they often played the shows with a bunch of HC bands in Tokyo like GISM, Gauze, The Execute, The Comes, Aburadako, The Stalin etc. The very first GISM show at the Tokyo University Red Gate was with Hentai Club(pre-Aburadako) and Allergy. The guitarist is Masayuki Ono from The Stalin. The music wise, they sounded more in the vein of dark and wavey punk with the British feel. They also put out an amzing 12" entitled "Allergy Process" on City Rocker in 1983 and the "El Dorado" LP on Japan Records(Tokuma) in 1985. Those two are probably even better than this 7". There's also a killer live(at Loft in '84) album that came out in 2004. If you like some of those dark and mid-paced tunes by The Stalin, you might enojoy Allergy as well.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">According to the comment by Max(of Hold Up/Noise Room Rec. & Ghoul) in the label discography/article from a '85 issue of the Doll magazine, this EP was technically self released by the band, but he just let them use the label name for this release to support this then-new and unknown band. It's possibly the hardest to find Hold Up/Noise Room release. Not really sure why, but I don't see this one for sale very often(the last two copies I saw on ebay sold for $163 and $203). Perhaps it was pressed in a smaller quantity than the label's other releases. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: red;"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Extremely rare and totally amazing live photo book featuring lots of classic '80s Japanese Punk/Hardcore bands as well as a few obscure ones. 2~4 pages by each band. Color and B&W photos taken circa '83~'84. The front and back covers are The Stalin. Kuro(4 pages), The Stalin(4 pages + covers), Aburadako(4 pages), Sodom(ADK-era!!!), Bradbury(a.k.a. Bloodberry, Tam's last band!!! = G-Zet + ex-Bitousha/Rebel/Sekinintenka members), The Star Club(5 pages), Kyaah, Kenzi, The Willard, Zelda, P-Model, Malin Conia, The Continental Kids, Cock C'nel, Machizo Machida(Inu), Sadie Sads, Bunretsu etc. A lot of these photos have never been published elsewhere. Full-color covers and glossy pages. Also contains the fantastic 3-page ADK Records article/discography(incl. detailed pressing infos & release month/year) with Tam's comments, and some zine reviews. Probably the best thing about this book is that it has the ultra-rare(and awesome looking!) live photos of early Sodom from their early HC era, and ofcourse Bloodberry!!(Hiromi looks fucking hot!!) If you're a serious ADK fan/collector, you know these bands are the very important part of the Japanese HC/Punk history and how hard to even find their photos. These are some of the very few existing official photos by them. Killer large color live shots of Bloodberry's female singer Hiromi(ex-Rebel & Bitousha) and a few small shots of Tam, which must have been taken right before he disappeared(or died?). Never actually seen their photos or early Sodom photos elsewhere, and especially since Bloodberry got to play only a very few shows after changing the name from G-Zet, I doubt so many live photos of them even exist. This book was published by a small publisher that mainly did the underground sub-culture and porno magazines(a.k.a. "ero-hon"). Oddly, there used to be good amount of non-major porno mags covering the Punk/HC stuff in Japan back then. They were not widely distributed and you could buy them only from the porno vending machines(!!) often seen in Japan back in the '80s or some sleazy porno shops, definitely not from the regular book stores. Well known fact that Michiro Endo used to work for those companies as a part time model/actor and appeared in some of the mags and videos before The Stalin got on a major label. They're worth a lot of $$$ nowadays and The Stalin/Michiro collectors(in Japan) are looking for 'em.</span></span></span></div>

I know nothing about this band except they were from Kanazawa city(Ishikawa pref.) and I can't think of any other bands from this area of Japan. It's more in the countryside and these four punks in the color photo shown on the back sleeve look very countryside-ish. The music is great, so it's all good, but still... they look plain awful!

It's one of the only three releases that was put out by this short-lived but killer label. The other two are the Warhead and Forward EP's.</span></span> <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Forward EP is fairly easy to find here since the band sold some copies during their first U.S. tour, but for some reason the Warhead EP and this one are hard to come by. Anyways, what you get here is some top-notch Burning Spirits style, traditional Japcore in the vein of Judgement, Nightmare, Warhead, Forward, Crude, Bastard, Death Side etc. Done exactly in the way Japcore was meant to be.

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Really cool, hard drivin' Japanese punk with gruff vocals! This is a very good EP and is possibly the best work done by this band in my opinion. </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Cool, yakuza-themed lyrics as well. </span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Although they're super well known in Japan, sadly almost nobody has heard of them elsewhere.

This was the CD-only release, by the way. </span><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">It's probably much harder to find than their 7"s that came out in the late '80s. Includes 10 tracks of non-stop, blazing and pure hardcore Japanese fist fuck. Gil put out another CD(5 tracks) called "Hard Core"(a.k.a. "Junk Life w/o Hard Core") in 2002 but as far as I know they once broke up or stopped playing sometime in the '90s, then got back together with that 2002 CD release.</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: red;"></span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Pre-Zone!! Obscure Shizuoka-city Japcore band. This flexi is extremely rare and hard to come by. The only ever release by them besides a great '87 split demo with Exdead. Heavy-hitting, speedy and metallic Japcore in the tradition of those other great '80s Shizuoka-city bands ala Deadless Muss, So What, Rustler, Innocents, Mental etc. Completely unknown, but an awesome band!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">One of the only four releases by the legendary Osaka-based HC label, Skeleton Records that also put out the 7"s by Gasmask, Coward and B-Strife. Kimaira kinda reminds me of Danse Macabre(of course they're much better though). Dark and metallic, hard punk. I actually like this much better than the B-Strife EP. This soungs are pretty cheap and primitive sounding, but the razor-sharp, metallic guitar riffs stand out. The cover artwork sucks and the band member look fucking crazy in the photo. Can't remember well, but either this band or B-Strife was planned to be included on the "Sieg Heil Skeleton" comp 8"(w/ Gasmask, Crime and I think some band called Woodpeckers) that never came out. There's even the sleeve artwork for this compilation printed on the Skeleton Records ad in one of the P.O.W. magazines. Wish that one came out.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Great 2nd EP by one of the most well known all-female punk bands in Japan. Their later releases sound poppier and aren't that exciting but the first two EP's are awesome! What you get on this EP is speedy and high-energy punk that's similar to the Nurse flexi, Typhus '80 demo(w/ female vox), or Chu-Doku flexi. Guest chorus by the members from Lip Cream, Bloodberry, and Laughin' Nose. Kyaah used to play gigs often with Nurse, Gas and The Comes. The interesting thing is that when they changed the singer prior to this EP release, Chitose(The Comes) was gonna join the band however it never happened(too bad!). Complete copy with an insert and a red sticker which is actually part of the sleeve design(a sticker appears thru the die-cut window).</span></div>

The project band by Naoki(Lip Cream)</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">, Act(Orange) and Yoshiki(X, the legendary metal band). Act also played a bass for Axe-Bomber in the early '80s and S.K.V.(Sakevi solo project) in '95. Orange was a punk rock band from Tokyo that I don't know much about. Originally called Masami & L.O.X., with the ex-Ghoul singer on vocals. Their '88 live recording with him is included on the rare Masami 3CD & 7" box set on Sunshine Sherbet. He obviously hasn't done anything else with L.O.X. afterwards as he was in a coma since '89 til his death in '92. L.O.X. was such an unique project that featured several different Japcore singers doing vocals for them both live and studio. There's a kick-ass boot live video with Tokurow(Bastard/Judgement) singing for them exists(search "LOX Yoshiki" on Youtube). On this 7-track album, the each song has a different singer(except Toshi on the 2 songs). The main vocalists are Ishiya(Death Side), Butaman(Tetsu-Arrey), Toshi(X), Ranko(The Continental Kids), Koh Ito(Fools) and even Naoki sings on an entire song! Yes, Naoki from Lip Cream doing vocals & guitars. Mix of wide variety of music style from hardcore, punk, metal, thrash to rock'n'roll. It's the only ever release(besides that weird track on the Masami/Ghoul tribute CD) by them and is on a great label S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet that also put out the Tetsu-Arrey 1st LP/CD, Masami solo LP, The Gaia 1st CD, Nickey & The Warriors 12", The Continental Kids LP's etc. Here's some more useless(?) infos for few obsessive collectors out there. This label was ran by the same dude from Ducasse Label(Kikeiji, Real EP's etc.) and Wechselbalg Records, who also runs I.D.N.(Inner Directs/I.D. Japan) which is a large distributor that has a HUGE tie to Sakevi, and exclusively distributes the G.I.S.M./Beast Arts releases.

<div>
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is the rare original Captain Records pressing, not the recent reissue CD. Most of the CD releases on Captain Records(like this one, the Gas "Reincarnation" CD, The Willard CD etc.) are much harder to find than the original LP's, as the label didn't press so many copies of their later CD or vinyl releases right before the end of the label around 1990 or so. Just a few additional infos about this label, since not much is known about them outside of Japan: Their LP releases have been repressed so many times and tons of copies of most of the LP's were made during 1985~1988. Captain was definitely the independent punk label, however was quite big like, let's say, the almost-major label like Epitaph. The label was part of the magazine publisher called JICC that was making this great monthly sub-culture magazine called "Takarajima"(Treasure Island) which was one of the very few "major" mags(among others like Doll or Fool's Mate) featuring a lot of the underground punk/hc/wave bands back in the '80s(later turned into the porn mag in the '90s...) For those who might or might not care, the sarcastic joke lyrics for The Swankys song "ノーギャラ"(a.k.a. "Pop Rocker", a killer tune by the way) is about Captain Rec./Takarajima, and one line goes: "Senzuri magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!"(The wankin' magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!) Yes, some bands and fans thought the bands on Captain are "sell out". The funny thing is that this Swankys song is on the obscure Kyushu punk comp LP called "In The Panties" which was released on..... Captain Records!</span><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Lip Cream<span style="color: red;"> </span></span>"Lip Cream Only" VHS - JICC/Takarajima, 1988, Japan, Original!, (VOS-4511) - $58</span></div>

I couldn't find any info and don't know anything about this band other than they're from Tokyo. Not to be confused with a Japanese metal band with the same name. Includes 3 tracks, Change, Go Mad Yourself and Distortion. </span></span></span></div>

The music is speedy, aggressive and hard-hitting '80s Japanese style punk with drivin' guitar! Their songs are ctachy and seriously good. One of my all-time favorite bands since '87. Saw them live twice at the original Loft in Tokyo. This EP is a total killer!! Check out the title track "Plunk Boy" and some of the songs from their other releases on Youtube: </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDEo-RRly9c" style="font-style: italic;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDEo-RRly9c</a> <span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The 1st flexi and the 1st LP on Captain Records are also fucking great too, but this EP is probably their best. Actually I love all their releases like the early demo tapes, the other two albums called "Insane Terrorist" and "Culture Sluts", and all the comp tracks as well. This one I have for sale is the original pressing on the Tokyo based label called Office Para, with an insert and a glossier pocket sleeve. After this sold out shortly after its release, the reissue(without insert) was done by themselves on The Magnets Records later the same year. </span></span></div>

Their songs are somewhat punkish. Mother Goose were very active in the late '80s to early '90s Tokyo underground scene, put out the flexi, this album and appeared on a few obscure compilations. Some of the members used to be in Adenoid, the band that was on the "Ningen Omnibus" Chiba city HC comp flexi with Kyojinbyo, and later changed the style to goth/darkwave and did an excellent EP. The ex-Mother Goose drummer now plays in the legendary Auto-Mod. This CD is very rare.

The first track "Seppuku" is a fast-pased, solid punk tune that reminds me a lot of The Stalin songs from the "Stop Jap" or "Mushi" albums. Insanely complicated and metaphorized, Aburadako-like lyrics that make absolutely no sense to me. Nikudan also had the split 8" with Gas.

While it's not as crucial as the 1st flexi, is still a great EP. Wish they've done an LP with this last lineup before breaking up though.

In my opinion, Pinocchio was one the best '90s Japanese bands although they're criminally unknown outside of Japan. Wish they've done a full-length LP.

Although it doesn't say "MCR Company" or the MCR catalog # anywhere on the flexi or sleeve, this was supposed to be a split release by the band's own label M.Sound and MCR, but it was more like distributed by MCR which is the label from Kyoto where this band is also from. I guess this is considered the 3rd record release of the label since MCR 003 & 004 are the Fuck Geez tape). I've got the catalog #005 for this flexi from the discography page on the MCR site.

I'd like to provide a bit complicated, but the most accurate history of Ghoul you most likely won't find anywhere else online. The original Ghoul broke up in '85 as there's the official VHS entitled "Last Gig" out on ACC Video label. The band got back together as "Ghoul II" with a different line-up in the late '86(or possibly the early '87), changed the name to Sqwad(originally called Masami with Sqwad) sometime during the summer of '88, either right before or after they played the "Complete Death" show at the Toshima Public Hall in Tokyo on July 17th '88, then broke up and got back together again as "Ghoul III" in '89 with just a slightly different line-up than Ghoul II and pretty remained active until Masami puked the blood on the stage and went into a coma afterwards in the early '90s. "Ghoul II" or "Ghoul III"....? That's how Masami called themselves when they got reformed twice and those names were often mentioned in the interviews, magazine articles and that's how they were usually listed in the gig flyers as well. As most of the fans already know, they're credited as "Sqwad(ex-Ghoul)" on the "Complete Death Live" VHS(released on January 1st '89), however in the flyers for this show they were still listed as Ghoul II. So, I assume they changed the name to Sqwad right before this show or after but sometime before the VHS came out. I'm not certain if they actually played the show as Sqwad or Ghoul II. Anyways, they played as Sqwad during the year of '89, released this flexi on Slice Records(Poison Arts' label) and broke up before the mid '89 if I remember correctly. As I mentioned earlier, they got back together again later the same year(before the summer). The Ghoul tracks you find on the "Game Of Death"(Slice Omnibus Vol.2) comp LP(w/ Death Side, Poison Arts & Final Bombs) are the only recorded material by Ghoul III, although they're simply credited as Ghoul on this release. This comp LP was released on July '89 for sure. The Ghoul tracks on this LP are awesome, by the way. These alternate names were sort of like the nicknames that the band members and fans used to separate the later two from the original Ghoul. Additionally. here's the known line-up changes: Ghoul II(Sqwad): Masami(Vo.), Arano(Gu.), Montess(Ba.) and Nemoto(Dr.) ~ Ghoul III: Masami(Vo.), Muttcha(Gu.), Arano(Ba.) and Nemoto(Dr.) During these years, as far as I know the line-up changed at least a couple of other times and another member that played in Ghoul III at some point is the guitarist from Worms' Meat(named by Masami) as a bassist. Nemoto also played in the bands like Poison Arts and Final Count. Arano also played in the band called Miscreant which was another band Masami did vocals for. After the original Ghoul broke up and until the early '90s, Masami also had a few other bands/projects like The Bad Lots(w/ Norio from the late Gas), Masami & L.O.X.(w/ Naoki from Lip Cream) and Bull Power. After his death, Masami & L.O.X. changed the name to L.O.X. and played a few shows(with the various members including the singer Tokurow from Bastard) and released the CD/double LP set with the various singers from X, Death Side, Tetsu-Arrey etc. The guitarist was Naoki from Lip Cream and the drummer was Yoshiki from X the whole tire time. Norio from The Bad Lots and Naoki were also some of the guest recording members for Masami's great solo album called "Power Line x Shock Line" in '87.</span></span></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Stalin, The </span></span>"<span>遺影集</span>(Ieishuu) 1980-1985" Photo Book - JICC, 1985, Japan, 216 pages, B6 size, w/ Orig. b&w negative film, (No Cat. #) - $85<br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 153, 255);">Here's a super-rare and quality photo book of The Stalin from '85.

Like this CD, also the Assfort "5 Knuckle Shuffle", "Final Bombs "Dooms Day", Don Don "Borderline", Ogreish Organism "Oni", Rise From The DEad "Rock Fan Dead" or both the original Death Side CD's are rarely seen for sale.</span></span></div></span></div><div><span style="font-weight: bold; "><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-weight: bold; ">Disaffect / Sedition </span>"Work As One" 7" EP - Nabate/Flat Earth, 1993, UK, 2000 pressed, Insert, (NAB-07/FE-12) - $13</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold; ">Disclose / Hellkrusher</span> "Why Must We Die?"(Blood Sucking Freaks III) 7" EP - Blood Sucker, 1994, Japan/UK, (BSR-013) - $30<br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; "><span style="font-weight: bold; "><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); "></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; "><span style="font-weight: bold; "><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); "><br /></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-weight: bold; "><span>Disclose / Wind Of Pain</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); "> </span></span>- Tape - Abnormal Tapes, 1999, Japan/Finland, Orig.

The S.K.V. page in the booklet features another twisted and weird collage art with some hidden political theme done by Sakevi-chan. I wonder if the guy Carlos that's listed in his thanx list is the singer from Jesus Save. Sakevi/GISM are/were very close to Genoa and those Strange Records and Stinky Records related thrash bands. Yes, I pay attention to such a small detail. Kinda geeky, I know... Besides this one and "The War" CD('04), there's another compilation called "N.O.S."('95) that S.K.V. appeared on. Tetsu-Arrey with one of their earlier recorded materials and their track here is an absolute smasher! Really powerful and thrashy. The guitar riffs sound a bit more metallic than any of their other stuff I've heard. The guitarist who played on this recording is different from the one on the 1st LP and is not Jotaro either. I think it's the only recording with this guitarist. The song "Starting Over" was later re-recorded for their 1st EP with a different lineup(w/ Jotaro on guitars) in '96, however this '93 original version sounds quite different from the EP version and is much, much better. Brain Shakes was a short-lived, Motörhead lovin' band by Ghost(ex-Ghoul & G.I.S.M. bassist). He does the vocals and plays the bass on this CD. Not so many people even heard of them but they have a full-length CD called "Go Go Brainshakes"(Strange Rec., '93) out under the name of Ghost, with the guest guitarists and drummers from Gauze, City Indian, Casbah etc.</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; "><i><br /></i></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal; "><span style="font-weight: bold; "><span>Shit Hits Volume 2</span><span> </span></span>- 7" EP - E, 1997, Int'l, 525 pressed, Hand-numbered sleeve(# 234), Grey marbled vinyl, (SHIT-15) - $10<br /><span style="font-style: italic; "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">C.S.S.O.</span></span><span style="font-style: italic; "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">(Clotted Symmetric Sexual Organ)</span></span><span style="font-style: italic; "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">(Japan) / Wind Of Pain(Finland) / Silmäosasto(Finland, ex-Tampere SS & Kuolleet Kukat) / Blood(Germany) / Irstas(Finland) / Plan E(Finland) / Hemdale(U.S.) / Excess Of Cruelty(Belgium)</span></span></span><br /></i></span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; "><span>Shodoku Gig (消毒 Gig)</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); "> </span></span>- LP - Selfish, 1987, Japan, Insert, (BEL-12018-L) - $88<br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">Gauze / Lip Cream / So What / Deadless Muss / Systematic Death / Outo / Gudon / S.O.B. / Chicken Bowels / Gazize / Sword / Exclaim / Idiot Idolaters / Gutter Snipe / Dis Pad - One of the harder to find Selfish Records releases.

Doesn't actually say "AA Records Book" anywhere on it but I remember that's what it was called in the old Doll magazine ad and the zine originally in a sealed bag with a little sticker on it which had "AA Records Book" printed on it. Contains mostly the reprints from the first issue of "P.O.W." and just a few rare early AA Records ads.</span></span></span><br />

Color and B&W photos taken circa '83~'84. The front and back covers are The Stalin. Kuro(4 pages), The Stalin(4 pages + covers), Aburadako(4 pages), Sodom(ADK-era!!!), Bradbury(a.k.a. Bloodberry, Tam's last band!!! = G-Zet + ex-Bitousha/Rebel/Sekinintenka members), The Star Club(5 pages), Kyaah, Kenzi, The Willard, Zelda, P-Model, Malin Conia, The Continental Kids, Cock C'nel, Machizo Machida(Inu), Sadie Sads, Bunretsu etc. A lot of these photos have never been published elsewhere. Full-color covers and glossy pages. Also contains the fantastic 3-page ADK Records article/discography(incl. detailed pressing infos & release month/year) with Tam's comments, and some zine reviews. Probably the best thing about this book is that it has the ultra-rare(and awesome looking!) live photos of early Sodom from their early HC era, and ofcourse Bloodberry!!(Hiromi looks fucking hot!!) If you're a serious ADK fan/collector, you know these bands are the very important part of the Japanese HC/Punk history and how hard to even find their photos. These are some of the very few existing official photos by them. Killer large color live shots of Bloodberry's female singer Hiromi(ex-Rebel & Bitousha) and a few small shots of Tam, which must have been taken right before he disappeared(or died?). Never actually seen their photos or early Sodom photos elsewhere, and especially since Bloodberry got to play only a very few shows after changing the name from G-Zet, I doubt so many live photos of them even exist. This book was published by a small publisher that mainly did the underground sub-culture and porno magazines(a.k.a. "ero-hon"). Oddly, there used to be good amount of non-major porno mags covering the Punk/HC stuff in Japan back then. They were not widely distributed and you could buy them only from the porno vending machines(!!) often seen in Japan back in the '80s or some sleazy porno shops, definitely not from the regular book stores. Well known fact that Michiro Endo used to work for those companies as a part time model/actor and appeared in some of the mags and videos before The Stalin got on a major label. They're worth a lot of $$$ nowadays and The Stalin/Michiro collectors(in Japan) are looking for 'em.</span></span></span><br />

<div style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Yes, this zine was done by Blue Jug Records, the label that put out the first two Kuro records and co-released the Gai and Confuse flexi's with Violent Party label. The Blue Jug zine/label was active in the '80s Kyushu punk scene. The zine usually featured a bunch of local punk, hardcore and new wave bands such as The Swankys, Gai, Kuro, Confuse, No Cut, Gess, Lydia Cats, The Rockers, The Roosters, Modern Dollz etc. as well as some non-Kyushu area bands. I've seen a few different issues with the rare live photos and the demo review of Sieg-Heil. Although this particular issue(No.15) seems to contain less HC articles than the other issues I've seen, the awesome thing about is that the large, full-color Kuro photo on the front cover. Looks really cool. Also two pages with more photos and interview by them, as well as the release ad for the "Who The Helpless" 8" EP. What makes this issue even more special is that, there's actually a small Sieg-Heil live photo from "Control Gig"(the series gigs organized by Gai) that's not available elsewhere. Yes, you heard it right, the actual Sieg-Heil photo is in this zine. Their photos or articles are so rare to find that even the Overthrow Records dude requested the people(esp. old punks from Kyushu) to send in any possible existing photos prior to the 12" reissue, so he could print them on the insert and such, however didn't get so many responses(as you can see the results if you own the 12").</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The hardest to find Confuse record in awesome condition. Since at least a few thousand copies each of their other records(except the 1st flexi) were pressed, it makes sense why this one, being limited to 1000 copies, don't pop up as often as the others do. Also, this 12" was released in 1989 and not 1992 like some websites say. The reissue CD came out in 1992. I remember seeing copies of this 12" on the shelves at some record shops in Japan when it first came out sometime before the '90s.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Another unknown but a killer '80s band from Kyushu(Nagasaki). Not exactly in the "typical" noisecore style that came out of the Kyushu area, but still AWESOME noisy and chaotic HC/Punk!!!! The first two songs sound kinda noisecore-ish and the last song is in The Swankys vein. Highly recommend for fans of The Swankys(early), Gai, Gess, Gedon, No Cut, Chaos CH, Dust Noise, Screaming Noise, Kings World Records stuff or early Disorder and Chaos UK. Rare self-released flexi by this great obscure band. Additional note: I recently acquired the info that the singer from this band is the same guy who did vocals for Gess, the Kyushu noisecore band known for thier killer demo on Gai's Violent Party label and the "Pinch & Ouch!" and "Down Town Street Punker" comp tracks. Can anybody confirm if this info is correct!?</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Rare early Crust War release. This tape is much better than their EP. The EP tracks are just some crappy ass noise(although I know some of the noisecore freaks out there dig that record...), but on this tape they play more "established" crusty and solid noisecore. It's been one of my all-time favorite Crust War releases. Never seen the original one for sale outside of Japan. Might be of interest for those serious Crust War completists?</span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-style: italic; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Think of a cross between Aburadako, Kikeiji, and The Stalin. If you like these bands, you'll love Doku-Buta! Another unknown but awesome ADK/The Stalin worshiped hard punk here. They even stole part of The Stalin lyrics and used it in one of their songs called "Egoist". The band bio printed on the sleeve says Doku-Buta is ex-Byogentai. I wonder if it's the same Byogentai that the L.S.D. singer was in!? Includes 7 tracks. Very rare!! Here's a review taken from an old MRR issue: "Translating as "Poison Pig," I expected a bit more weirdness than supplied, but this slab of plastic contains some neat tracks. They can do thrash, punk, proto-punk -- all with verve and gnarly-ass vocals and guitar. Reminds me a bit of early PERE UBU."</span></span><span style="color: black; font-style: italic; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> ----- (Pere Ubu?! WTF...?

The singer later formed Crossface with ex-members of Liberate, Ai and Jabara.

It's one of the only three releases that was put out by this short-lived but killer label. The other two are the Warhead and Forward EP's.</span></span> <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The Forward EP is fairly easy to find here since the band sold some copies during their first U.S. tour, but for some reason the Warhead EP and this one are hard to come by. Anyways, what you get here is some top-notch Burning Spirits style, traditional Japcore in the vein of Judgement, Nightmare, Warhead, Forward, Crude, Bastard, Death Side etc. Done exactly in the way Japcore was meant to be.

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">The long out-of-print 1st EP by these crazy-ass, fucked-up, drug-filled, trans lovin', noisecore hippie crusties from Tokyo. I think they're already broken up though. Released on Paank Levyt, the Japanese HC label ran by some legendary dude known to be a totally rad weirdo who apparently often shows up at punk/hc shows all dressed up gangsta/hip hop style. Can't be more hardcore than that!</span></span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-style: italic; font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Kick ass Norwegian hardcore! This 7" was later reissued by Underestimated Records in the U.S., with a different photo on the front sleeve, but this one is the original pressing and is the first release by the now defunct label Kick N' Punch Records from Denmark.</span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal;">
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Watch's unknown HC project band after The Swankys! This one is really cool. Musically, it doesn't sound like any of his other bands or projects. It's more in the vein of the '80s U.S. hardcore, but with that typical Watch-styled snotty vocals! The music is fast, simple and straight-forward hardcore but they sound somewhat humorous as most of his bands usually are. I mean, if you're the fan of The Swankys and the other Watch related bands, you know what to expect. Gotta love the band's name and what "FBI" stands for. However, they misspelled the word "Israel" and the package and cassette labels say "Islael", of course. This band might have been a one time studio-only project, but I'm not totally sure about it. Includes 13 tracks. The cardboard slipcase package says: "1st Demo Tracks Album". Very, very rare cassette-only, super obscure release on Kings World Records. Never been reissued on CD or vinyl. Yes, Kings World actually put out many limited tape releases that's not very well known, like the ones by The S.C.U.M., Bastly Backs(cool band!), The Last Child etc.</span><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal;">
<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">ex-Last Bomb.

<div style="font-weight: normal;">
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Freedom is definitely one of the most overlooked Japcore bands from this era. Criminally underrated in my opinion. Has possibly the shittiest and the worst front sleeve artwork I've ever seen. If just see the front sleeve and have never heard their music, you wouldn't wanna buy it. Inside the poster sleeve there are many band photos that's pretty enjoyable to look at. Musically, it's totally in the vein of Zouo, Mobs, Ghoul, GISM, Rapes, A.T.-Det, The Clay, The Execute, Geizz, Demolition etc. You get the idea. Dark, solid and metallic Japcore with that violent gruff vocal style ala Sakevi or Cherry. Really good and heavy shit! Includes 4 tracks, Suicide, Last Revolution, Shit Babies and Freedom System. The guitarist Belley also played in War Painted City Indian, Laughin' Nose and might also have been in Mohawks at some point. The only ever Freedom release and it's on AA Records. This EP is somewhat hard to come by, compared to some of the other early AA releases.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></span></div>

For fans of Judgement, Bastard, Tetsu-Arrey, Death Side, Forward, Crude, Warhead, Nightmare etc. This EP almost never pops up for sale for some reason.

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The classic 1st EP by this legendary Japcore band. A very little known fact that the actual guitarist on this recording was Tatsu who played in Gastunk, Dead Cops, LSD, Gas, Nurse etc., although Max is credited as a guitarist.

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Definitely my most favorite current band from Japan now. An absolutely killer, female fronted HC with the huge influences from The Comes, Gas and The Stalin. Also I hear a bit of the ADK Records influence in some of their songs. Most of the songs sound very similar to The Comes in my opinion. Totally '80s Japanese HC/Punk worship here. If you see the sleeve artwork, listen to the record and nobody tells you they're a new band, you'll think this EP came out in the early or mid '80s. Not only their music is so amazing, the production, sleeve artwork/layout and the paper quality etc., these guys did it in the perfect "'80s Japanese Punk" way with that superb underground feel. There are three different pressings of this 1st EP. Originally released by the band themselves, 500 copies were sold out within 2 weeks(!). Limited to 600 copies of this 2nd press came out on HG Fact which also sold out immediately after its release. The 3rd pressing of 500 copies on colored vinyl were made shortly after. "Himei" is the Japanese word for "Scream".</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">A review taken from http://distortiontilyouvomit.blogspot.com : Germany's In Nomine Christi is the new band of the former Dekadent singer/ bassist Jogi and guitarist Hippy with some additional vocals by Tanja (also ex-Dekadent). The band uses a drum machine and samples as opposed to having a drummer. They play a mixture of the slow plodding pace Crust similar to Amebix meets the Industrial flavorings of Godflesh and early Pitchshifter, they also throw in faster more straight forward hardcore at times. Lyrics are in German and are highly political dealing the negative aspects of church, today's life, media and modern science but with an even more personal touch than they did in Dekadent. All in all this is a solid release and its refreshing to hear bands that don't do the typical punk sound and are willing to experiment a little bit outside the genre's confines.</span><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;"> http://www.myspace.com/innominechristi</span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">A complete package with a bonus flexi, photo booklet and logo sticker! The bonus flexi in this set is the "1984 Studio" version(black flexi), which seems to be harder to come by than the "1983 Gig" flexi(clear red). Contains the studio outtakes from the "Who The Helpless" 8" EP session, which isn't available on any of their other releases. The A4 size booklet contains lots of cool band photos and discography. All packaged in a large, logo printed envelope. The price may seem kinda high for this one but I paid more than I should have for it, too. Considering that I've seen it(a complete set) twice on ebay this year, the last one sold for $200 in June and another one in May for $153, I don't think it's that bad. Both were the version with the "1984 flexi", by the way.</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Very rare official cassette-only release on Kings World Records. It was later reissued on the CD format but this one is the original. Contains the full live set from one of their early shows. The sound quality is excellent. The best thing about this tape is that you get to hear a few unreleased songs(the titles unknown) that's not available on any of their other releases. Also contains the killer Kuro version of the Stooges cover song! Yes, in their early days, Kuro actually did many covers of the classic punk tunes by the Heartbreakers etc. This live recording is not the same as the one that's on the "Hardcore Damnation" double discography CD(that one was recorded in '86). The tape comes in a cool cardboard outer package.</span><br />

The project band by Naoki(Lip Cream)</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">, Act(Orange) and Yoshiki(X, the legendary metal band). Act also played a bass for S.K.V.(Sakevi solo project) in '95. Originally called Masami & L.O.X., with the ex-Ghoul singer on vocals. Their '88 live recording with him is included on the rare Masami 3CD & 7" box set on Sunshine Sherbet. He obviously hasn't done anything else with L.O.X. afterwards as he was in a coma since '89 til his death in '92. L.O.X. was such an unique project that featured several different Japcore singers doing vocals for them both live and studio. There's a kick-ass boot live video with Tokurow(Bastard/Judgement) singing for them exists(search "LOX Yoshiki" on Youtube). On this 7-track album, the each song has a different singer(except Toshi on the 2 songs). The main vocalists are Ishiya(Death Side), Butaman(Tetsu-Arrey), Toshi(X), Ranko(The Continental Kids), Koh Ito(Fools) and even Naoki sings on an entire song! Yes, Naoki from Lip Cream doing vocals & guitars. Mix of wide variety of music style from hardcore, punk, metal, thrash to rock'n'roll. It's the only ever release(besides that weird track on the Masami/Ghoul tribute CD) by them and is on a great label S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet that also put out the Tetsu-Arrey 1st LP/CD, Masami solo LP, The Gaia 1st CD, Nickey & The Warriors 12", The Continental Kids LP's etc. Here's some more useless(?) infos for few obsessive collectors out there. This label was ran by the same dude from Ducasse Label(Kikeiji, Real EP's etc.) and Wechselbalg Records, who also runs I.D.N.(Inner Directs/I.D. Japan) which is a large distributor that has a HUGE tie to Sakevi, and exclusively distributes the G.I.S.M./Beast Arts releases.

<div style="font-weight: normal;">
<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">This is the rare original Captain Records pressing, not the recent reissue CD. Most of the CD releases on Captain Records(like this one, the Gas "Reincarnation" CD, The Willard CD etc.) are much harder to find than the original LP's, as the label didn't press so many copies of their later CD or vinyl releases right before the end of the label around 1990 or so. Just a few additional infos about this label, since not much is known about them outside of Japan: Their LP releases have been repressed so many times and tons of copies of most of the LP's were made during 1985~1988. Captain was definitely the independent punk label, however was quite big like, let's say, the almost-major label like Epitaph. The label was part of the magazine publisher called JICC that was making this great monthly sub-culture magazine called "Takarajima"(Treasure Island) which was one of the very few "major" mags(among others like Doll or Fool's Mate) featuring a lot of the underground punk/hc/wave bands back in the '80s(later turned into the porn mag in the '90s...) For those who might or might not care, the sarcastic joke lyrics for The Swankys song "ノーギャラ"(a.k.a. "Pop Rocker", a killer tune by the way) is about Captain Rec./Takarajima, and one line goes: "Senzuri magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!"(The wankin' magazine, Takarajima~~~♪♪!!) Yes, some bands and fans thought the bands on Captain are "sell out". The funny thing is that this Swankys song is on the obscure Kyushu punk comp LP called "In The Panties" which was released on..... Captain Records!</span><br />

<span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">Produced by Chelsea(Death Side/Paintbox). An obscure Japcore band that was active in the Tokyo area from the late '80s to early '90s, featuring J.J. You from Death Side on vocals! The original members of Mino-5 included Chelsea on drums, Katsuta(Tetsu-Arrey/Extinct Government) on bass and the guitarist from United. Yes, The Execute wasn't the only band Chelsea played the drums for. This is the only ever release by Mino-5 besides the "Enjoy Your Youth..." comp LP tracks from 1988. Guest choruses by Chelsea, Katsuta, Toku(Bastard) etc. Rare CD-only release on Selfish Records. Many of the late Selfish Records releases especially the CD's are pretty hard to come by.

Very rare and great flexi by this obscure band from the "ADK Omnibus Vol.2" comp EP. Awesome Japanese HC here. 7 tracks of dark, metallic and aggressive as hell HC that sounds comparable to The Execute, Gas, Ziga, Rebel, L.S.D., Sex Complex Class or Bitousha.

I've collected all their records over the years and love them all but this one and the "Last Peace" 2nd EP are definitely their best. Contains the 5 tracks in wide variety of the Punk/HC style. The song "Hot Rod Man" is a killer fast HC, "Warrior" is a cool, mid-tempo heavy HC with gruff vocals and the last song "Panic Life" is a lightning-fast, aggressive and driving punk tune with lots of catchy choruses. This song is such a great punk anthem!! Tam wanted to release this flexi on his ADK label but since New Roteeka just started their own label, it ended up being the first release of New Family Records. You still get to hear that typical "Tam sound" on this release since he was the recording engineer and producer. Also the songs were recorded at Penta Studio, where all the ADK releases were recorded at. This one, the Molugu flexi, Masturbation flexi and Sodom cassette are the only non-ADK releases that Tam was involved as a producer/engineer. The New Roteeka members were very close to the bands like L.S.D., Ghoul, Nira-Kodomo and Gasatsu(their 2nd EP is on New Family Records and appeared on their comp LP as well) and often played the shows with those Japcore bands before they got huge with their later albums on Captain Records. They're actually on the Masami/Ghoul tribute CD. I'd highly recommend this flexi for any Japanese Punk/HC fans. Have such great memories in this band and seen them live a few times back in the late '80s. The Loft show is unforgettable!</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Nurse</span> "Nurse II" 7" EP - ADK, 1984, Japan, (ADK-13E) - $65 (SOLD)<br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 153, 255);">Produced, engineered and released by Tam(The Stalin/Typhus/G-Zet/ADK Records). Rare 2nd EP with Tatsu(Gastunk/Dead Cops) on guitar and Euro(The Execute) on drums. The same female singer and bassist from the 1st flexi on Incest Records, which was the label ran by a Sha-London/Sex Imagination Drugs singer, that also put out the S.I.D., Sha-London and Paruo flexi's. While it's not as crucial as the 1st flexi, is still a great EP. Wish they've done an LP with this last lineup before breaking up though. This is actually one of my all-time favorite ADK releases.</span><span style="font-weight: bold; "><br /><br />No Value </span>"2002/6/8 @ Cymbaline" Tape - Bad Smell(a.k.a.

Occasionally seen on the want lists. Took me a while to get myself a copy, too. While the Poison Cola tracks are excellent, all the Blood Feast tracks rip so damn fucking hard(imo) that the Poison Cola side hasn't been played as much on my turntable. These Blood Feast tracks on this split might be even better than their later EP's which I thought were great also. No crust influence at all, just pure, driving fast and intensely blazing Japcore tunes at it's best. Done extremely well comparing to many of the generic/mediocre trad. '80s Japcore styled bands from that era(i.e. Like some of those MCR or Dan-Doh releases that nobody gives a shit about, the shittier ones). Split release by Discrete and Poison Cola's label Bater Records. Like many other Discrete releases, only 500 copies of this 7" were pressed. Oh, and the artworks on the sleeve and inserts look very cool as well. By the way, Poison Cola was formed in '85. I guess this split was their first vinyl release after putting out a bunch of demos. Too bad, because they could get a lot of</span><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 153, 255);"> fans if they had a release or two on Selfish Records. The "Night Of The Living Dead" comp. 7" on Bater Records is also worth tracking down, though it's not an easy record to come by either. P.S.

The '86 track might be from the demo tape that came out prior to the "Violent Action" flexi('86). The other track "Not Dead" should be completely unreleased elsewhere. The comp tape itself was released in 1990, but their tracks are older recordings. Their split EP tracks from 1991 sounded pretty different and aren't as good as the earlier stuff. That one doesn't seem so popular among fans. The "I'll Gather Up" comp 8" also has the late '80s material by Z.

What makes this CD special is that the rare appearance by Tetsu-Arrey, S.K.V. and Brain Shakes. S.K.V., the G.I.S.M. frontman Sakevi's infamous noise/avant/experimental project</span></span><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 153, 255); "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">. The name stands for Swastika Kozmic Victorz, She Killed Vicoius, or Slug Kidney Vivisection. Contains S.K.V.'s first recorded material and on this recording Jojo Hiroshige from Hijokaidan(king of noise!) plays the guitar!!!(yes, you heard it, right. Jojo on guitar. Sakevi + Jojo = !?!?!?) The S.K.V. page in the booklet features another twisted and weird collage art with some hidden political theme done by Sakevi-chan. I wonder if the guy Carlos that's listed in his thanx list is the singer from Jesus Save. Sakevi/GISM are/were very close to Genoa and those Strange Records and Stinky Records related thrash bands. Yes, I pay attention to such a small detail. Kinda geeky, I know... Besides this one and "The War" CD('04), there's another compilation called "N.O.S."('95) that S.K.V. appeared on. Tetsu-Arrey with one of their earlier recorded materials and their track here is an absolute smasher! Really powerful and thrashy. The guitar riffs sound a bit more metallic than any of their other stuff I've heard. The guitarist who played on this recording is different from the one on the 1st LP and is not Jotaro either. I think it's the only recording with this guitarist. The song "Starting Over" was later re-recorded for their 1st EP with a different lineup(w/ Jotaro on guitars) in '96, however this '93 original version sounds quite different from the EP version and is much, much better. Brain Shakes was a short-lived, Motörhead lovin' band by Ghost(ex-Ghoul & G.I.S.M. bassist). He does the vocals and plays the bass on this CD. Not so many people even heard of them but they have a full-length CD called "Go Go Brainshakes"(Strange Rec., '93) out under the name of Ghost, with the guest guitarists and drummers from Gauze, City Indian, Casbah etc.</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:85%;"><i><br /></i></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal; "><span style="font-weight: bold; "><span>Shit Hits Volume 2</span><span> </span></span>- 7" EP - E, 1997, Int'l, 525 pressed, Hand-numbered sleeve(# 234), Grey marbled vinyl, (SHIT-15) - $10<br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">C.S.S.O.</span></span><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">(Clotted Symmetric Sexual Organ)</span></span><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); "><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 255); ">(Japan) / Wind Of Pain(Finland) / Silmäosasto(Finland, ex-Tampere SS & Kuolleet Kukat) / Blood(Germany) / Irstas(Finland) / Plan E(Finland) / Hemdale(U.S.) / Excess Of Cruelty(Belgium)</span></span></span><br /></i></span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Shodoku Gig (消毒 Gig) </span></span>- LP - Selfish, 1987, Japan, Insert, (BEL-12018-L) - $88<br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 153, 255);">Gauze / Lip Cream / So What / Deadless Muss / Systematic Death / Outo / Gudon / S.O.B. / Chicken Bowels / Gazize / Sword / Exclaim / Idiot Idolaters / Gutter Snipe / Dis Pad - One of the harder to find Selfish Records releases.

The later band issued copies came in a regular sleeve with black ink, and no label address printed. The guitarist from Limp Wrist and Acid Reflux was in this band. Great, raw and loud HC with raging screaming vocals. Not another "Dis" band! Completely unknown band but this is actually one of my favorite '90s records from the U.S. Well worth checking it out.</span></span><b><br /></b><br />

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;">Think of a cross between Aburadako, Kikeiji, and The Stalin. If you like these bands, you'll love Doku-Buta! Another unknown but awesome ADK/The Stalin worshipped hard punk here. They even stole part of The Stalin lyrics and used it in one of their songs called "Egoist". The band bio printed on the sleeve says Doku-Buta is ex-Byogentai. I wonder if it's the same Byogentai that the L.S.D. singer was in!? Includes 7 tracks. Very rare!! Here's a review taken from an old MRR issue: "Translating as "Poison Pig," I expected a bit more weirdness than supplied, but this slab of plastic contains some neat tracks. They can do thrash, punk, proto-punk -- all with verve and gnarly-ass vocals and guitar. Reminds me a bit of early PERE UBU."</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: #ff99ff;"> ----- (Pere Ubu?! WTF...?)</span></span><br />

Really cool band that was actually quite well known in Japan back in the late '80s. Melodic but not in the "typical" bay area punk rock style. Definitely more in the vein of those British melodic punk bands from the late '80s to early '90s, with that Japanese punk catchiness. Very unique and original style of punk rock. Kinda hard to compare them to any other bands.</span></span></div>

It’s a shame, then, that now Dewa alone have delivered the band’s sophomore EP, a ripping three-song set that deserves every bit as much attention as its predecessor. HEARTWORK’s music hasn’t changed a bit— quick, driving blasts of purist hardcore punk that recall classical US (Negative Approach, Minor Threat), Japanese (Lip Cream, Systematic Death) and even some early UK bands. </span></span><span style="color: #ff99ff; font-style: italic;">The pace is set by a consistent galloping beat, fortified by prominent bass, accompanied by shouted vocals and all driven along by a non-stop buzzsaw guitar that occasionally leaps into tasteful leads but never loses the essential momentum.</span></div>

Act also played a bass for S.K.V.(Sakevi solo project) in '95. Originally called Masami & L.O.X., with the ex-Ghoul singer on vocals. Their '88 live recording with him is included on the rare Masami 3CD & 7" box set on Sunshine Sherbet. He obviously hasn't done anything else with L.O.X. afterwards as he was in a coma since '89 til his death in '92. L.O.X. was such an unique project that featured several different Japcore singers doing vocals for them both live and studio. There's a kick-ass boot live video with Tokurow(Bastard/Judgement) singing for them exists(search "LOX Yoshiki" on Youtube). On this 7-track album, the each song has a different singer(except Toshi on the 2 songs). The main vocalists are Ishiya(Death Side), Butaman(Tetsu-Arrey), Toshi(X), Ranko(The Continental Kids), Koh Ito(Fools) and even Naoki sings on an entire song! Yes, Naoki from Lip Cream doing vocals & guitars. Mix of wide variety of music style from hardcore, punk, metal, thrash to rock'n'roll. It's the only ever release(besides that weird track on the Masami/Ghoul tribute CD) by them and is on a great label S.E.X./Sunshine Sherbet that also put out the Tetsu-Arrey 1st LP/CD, Masami solo LP, The Gaia 1st CD, Nickey & The Warriors 12", The Continental Kids LP's etc. Here's some more useless(?) infos for few obsessive collectors out there. This label was ran by the same dude from Ducasse Label(Kikeiji, Real EP's etc.) and Wechselbalg Records, who also runs I.D.N.(Inner Directs/I.D. Japan) which is a large distributor that has a HUGE tie to Sakevi, and exclusively distributes the G.I.S.M./Beast Arts releases.

Strange band name though. If you wonder, "Telephon Club" was sort of like a phone sex thing that was huge in Japan back in the '80s. Here's a review taken from an old MRR : LOVEZHE - "Crazy" flexi. A two-song, one-sided red flexi that's got thrash with. hooks played with abandon . Fun, though not really. "crazy."</span></span></span></div>

And this is the first release by the label. It almost never pops up for sale even in Japan. The music is so fucking brilliant and the sleeve design is cool too. 6 tracks of drivin' fast metallic Japcore with some catchy hooks!! Plus, the excellent guitar riffs as well. The thick vocals remind me of Ishiya from Death Side/Forward. The songs on this EP sound so original and don't quite sound like anybody else. Matsuji sure knew how to create their own music style and did it so damn well, especially how they mixed raging fast Japcore and super catchy parts. If you've heard their awesome tracks on the "Attack Of 4 Tribes" compilation on Selfish Records, you already know how great this band is. Slice Records also put out a few more good records like the Poison Arts flexi, Sqwad(ex-Ghoul) flexi, Clod EP, "Nobody's Fault" LP(Poison Arts, Nira-Kodomo, Rose Rose etc.) and "Game Of Death" LP(Death Side, Ghoul, Poison Arts, Final Bombs). Just an additional note... This EP came out in '87, however many of the online resource sites say '85. I know Poison started their "Slice Gigs" in '85, but the label was established a few years later.
