Description
Raw Distractions “奇しく燃える” LP
The debut album for this Tokyo punk band who have previous releases on Hardcore Survives and Pogo 77 Records. Inspired by the UK 82 style of Clay Records and Riot City, whilst retaining both a distinctly modern and distinctly Japanese sound. Sharing many stylistic traits with countless other hardcore bands of that nation, but the temptation to go for overblown chaos and wild energy has been reigned-in, allowing some of the (comparatively) more melodic tendencies to shine through, but with silch compromise on the power levels. Powerful modern Japanese punk just about sums it up.
