LSD March - Constellation Of Tragedy
Released in 2007
Genre = Japanese psychedelic folk/rock?
"Important Records have been doing an exemplary job of bringing the best in contemporary Japanese rock music to a wider audience of late - not just in the usual Acid Mothers/Kawabata Makoto vein, but with this weeks one-two punch of Suishou No Fune and LSD March releases. Constellation Of Tragedy is, as its title suggests, not the most upbeat of albums, with the magical opener Aka I Yoru making for an especially mournful way to start things off. Its simple combination of what sounds like a broken music box, gently strummed guitar and amplifier hiss serves as a humble backdrop for Shinsuke Michish*tas world-weary voice. From here the album gradually builds itself (via the beautifully recorded, yet oddly cobbled together pop stylings of Musuu No Taiyo and Kimi Wa Tengoku up to a moment of unexpectedly bombastic psych-rock in the form of Moeru Pyramid a primitive fuzz blast of bluesy guitar solos and hazy late 60s riffing that flails and flounders its way into the closing harmonium drone piece Kanashii Seiza. Awesome."
I guess this is more of an EP than an album, 5 tracks and about 27 minutes long.
Tracklisting:
1. Aka I Yoru (6:39)
2. Musuu No Taiyo (4:15)
3. Kimi Wa Tengoku (5:28)
4. Moeru Pyramid (6:09)
5. Kanashii Seiza (4:50)
very very chilled out, good easy listening with a dab of comedy when you hit Moeru pyramid with the intense overlayed fuzz. well reccomended, you can pick it up at the "usual" ARRRRRRRRRRRRR IM A PIRATE locations.
please dont let this beauty go under the radar like so much other good cool stuff.
