Album Notes & Community Reviews
Plastics' 'Welcome Plastics' introduced the Japanese band's sharply stylized take on new wave, fashion, and electronic pop minimalism. The album's toy-like rhythms, clipped vocals, and art-school humor made the group one of Japan's most visible early exports in the international new wave scene.
