Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut album from the Tokyo powerhouse operates at an impossibly high speed, bombarding the listener with hyperspeed blast beats, jagged stop-start guitar noise, and Yasuko Onuki's piercing, staccato yelps. Produced by Steve Albini, the record captured the band's ferocious, hyperactive energy that would soon make them legends of the international noise-punk underground.
