Album Notes & Community Reviews

A vibrant and wildly eccentric export of the Japanese new wave scene, Plastics deliver a hyper-energetic dose of synthesized dance-punk. 'Welcome Back' is fueled by jittery, B-52's-style rhythms, quirky vocal interjections, and a kitschy, retro-futuristic aesthetic that garnered significant international cult appeal.
