Gendo Missile I-Ya-Da! EP + flexi 7″

Oh God, another Japanese packaging flipout—comes in a mylar sleeve, the record itself is a picture disc that looks like a circus clown on PCP devised it, and there’s an extra flexi included. After this, the music itself is a letdown.

Kinniku Shojotai とろろの脳髄伝説 EP

Translates as “Muscle Little Girl Group” (I really owe Roger for all the translations on Japanese reviews). Don’t ask me? Musically they’re crazed, jazzy, avant garde, post-punk loonies. Vocals are pretty punky, and the music usually has bite, but boy, it’s weird.

Sine Sine Dan Jarged GBH Greatest Baka Hits EP

A send-up on GBH, the key word “baka” (meaning “foolish”) appearing frequently. Hilarious music, as well as the funniest back cover I’ve ever seen. Great Big Haircuts, indeed.
