about

Reissue of a long-lost tape from 1993 here. K2 has long been at the fore-front of Japanese noise and is known for his harsh, collage style.

This record isn't an all-out harsh-fest in that way that contemporaries like Hijokaidan are, but is very varied in sound. There's creeping synth tone, screeching feedback, piercing blasts of white noise, rumbling static. Compositionally there are long periods of coherence, with an almost musical sensibility, but these are often brought to a shattering halt by a blast of ear-splitting noise.

It's a real honour to be able to be part of getting this essential early material out there. And for it not to be edited to within an inch of its life, given shit cover art and released as a 20 quid "luxury" LP on Urashima.

500 copies in a nice digipak. Co-released with the always-excellent Narcolepsia; if yr in Europe it'll be cheaper to get from Manuel!

I cannot praise this album enough. This album is absolutely terrifying! The many starts and stops creates this very h settling tension. Each start expands on the stopper idea previously. It’s like the music equivalent of walking through thick fog while passing out multiple times throughout trying to find a place to orientate yourself. There may or may not be something sinister in that fog, but you don’t want to stick around to find out. Bought the vinyl so I summon the fog demons through spe showhornwithteeth
