ROCKY & THE SWEDEN - CITY BABY ATTACKED BY BUDS - CD Japan only.


Pre-order - Released on August 8, 2019, the 7-inch was sold out on the same day, and ROCKY & The SWEDEN, which raised the signal of a complete revival, will return for the first time in 19 years. The full-length album is finally released! !
You know HARDCORE GRASS HOPPERS, ROCKY & The SWEDEN. Both "TOTAL HARD CORE" and "GOD SAVE THE GREEN" left by them are counted as important works in the hardcore world, and are still often cited as favorites both in Japan and overseas. Since the latest work of such ROCKY & The SWEDEN will be released, there will be no choice but to appreciate and enjoy it.
First of all, through the album, the "Rocky-ness" that everyone expects is settled right in the middle. As a new element derived from that, the guitar work of new member KAZUKI SWEDEN should be noted. The harmony that pops out in the opening intro of "VOICE" recorded in the 2nd track must be shocking. In addition, "GREEN RIOT" and "WEED WEED WEED" recorded on the 7-inch released as a stepping stone for this work are also included, but there are some minor changes, so please listen to them and compare them. And in "UNITE & WIN", which decorates the end of this album, CAPTAIN "KOBA" SWEDEN sang a big circle. The album has a lineup that allows you to firmly savor both sides of things that have been new over the years and things that have not changed. The eye-catching jacket image is by OKANO MASATO, an up-and-coming artist living in NY. Also, like the 7-inch, I would like to pay attention to the homage to the album title. A truly "Total Hard Core" piece that packs everything they have into rabbits and horns has been completed here.
Hardcore Grass Hoppers, ROCKY & The Sweden release full length album in 19 years!! Their another two albums "TOTAL HARD CORE" & "GOD SAVE THE GREEN" are well known as world's hardcore classics for a long time.
Yes, this album is right that you expect. But you can feel change a bit from some songs. It's because of new member, KAZUKI SWEDEN(ex-VIVISICK). You will be blasted by his thrilling guitar play
. painting is by Okano Masato in NYC. And you can find R&S's respect to hardcore originators from album title. Anyway, here's their "Total Hard Core" album coming!!
01. GREEN RIOT 
02. VOICE
03. PEOPLE VS GOVERNMENT

EYESCREAM - THE END - Complete Discography - CD Japan only.


Pre-order - Discography CD of EYESCREAM, the treasure of Sendai, who gathered a lot of attention in a very short period of time from their formation in 2018 to their last live in 2019, but disbanded!
The 1st cassette tape, which was released in an almost unknown state, spread widely from the word-of-mouth level to the whole country and the world. The sound, which includes plenty of 80's hardcore taste, had a striking impact on this era. The vocals that screamed out a strong message with bare emotions were also terrifying, showing off their ability to be a hot topic.
As a solo sound source, he has released two cassette tapes, NO NO NO, and a 3-way split with menstrual blood, but all of them are currently difficult to obtain and soaring. This work is a complete discography that includes all of those sound sources and almost all the live sound sources at Nishi-Yokohama EL PUENTE on August 11, 2019, which unfortunately became a dissolution live.

TERRIBILIS (EX SKITKLASS) SMASH THE SYSTEM AND THEIR LUST TO DOMINATE - 7" + CDS Japan only.


 TERRIBILIS, First release of a new band with SKITKLASS members and friends - 7" regular(1st pic)and limited mail order only sleeves(2nd pic)and a SCD(girl sleeve), 4 tracks.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnIbA9vSqGA&t=4s

 REVIEW :
Around 2017, many of you may have heard of SKITKLASS, which mutated. Wearing a mask that looks like SM, these crazy guys dropped their works in quick succession in just a few years and took the underground scene by storm. In the midst of all this, the era of the corona disaster that has destroyed the world has arrived. It seems that there was no human being in this world who didn't succumb to that kind of instigation, and the fact that that SKITKLASS mask also allowed the virus to intervene was a bit reassuring in an episode that felt human.
TERRIBILIS was newly launched by the members of SKITKLASS in the midst of the irresistible stormy seas. It seems that they borrowed the scientific name of the golden poison frog. When I heard the origin of the band name, the image of the sound matched perfectly. I had a bit of an intellectual image of SKITKLASS, but when I first listened to TERRIBILIS, I was blown away. It popped out with the whites of its eyes peeled back, as if it had activated the mode reversal and the secret code "THE BEAST". and black. Black everywhere. In my personal image, it's "white / KURO", or "SEXUAL", it's "that" atmosphere. I don't know what they are thinking. But be careful. They are ferocious.

ARTIFICIAL JOY - 100% PURE JOY - CD Japan only.


Since their 2019 cassette release and their beloved 7" split with SKITKLASS, LA's ARTIFICIAL JOY have long been on Japan's radar. And now, we are pleased to announce, ARTIFICIAL JOY has released their 1st album!
They're here! Make way for ARTIFICIAL JOY!
It's gonna feel like the gates to a long-locked room are getting busted open when they start their set. I don't know, but I think it means we're free to be ourselves now.
Do you find yourself questioning your daily life, like you don't belong, like you're held back by something you can't shake off? Are you kind of a killjoy? Are you addicted to social media's cycle of bullshit negativity? Are you reading this like, no, what the fuck. Whatever it is, whoever you are, you need ARTIFICIAL JOY.
Listen, dance, drown in ARTIFICIAL JOY. Let their music sink in and talk about that other shit later. The guitars are commanding and solid, like they're leading a squadron of troops. The bass and drums rush in and heat up the instrumentals. And at the very top, these fearless, rabid vocals full of all sorts of expressions, blaze like a banner for the songs. An explanation wouldn't do them justice, they're just wow. Wow. Michiaki (The Last Survivors)

BAREBONES - ZERO - CD Japan only.


 Japan's world-class R&R HARDCORE PUNK, BAREBONES, will release their 3rd album 15 years after the previous album.

"Ultimate" is often the simplest, and a three-piece rock band is one of them. Barebones has always been walking in the middle and has been sharpening himself. The dynamically engraved 8 beat penetrates the core as an unwavering backbone. The combination of the raging bass and the highly flexible guitar is the skill that only the three of them have cultivated over many years. Simple but never mediocre. It's a royal road, but don't forget the sensational. With this work, Barebones presents one of the achievements of modern hardcore punk rock to the world.

Crunk - Demo 02 - CD - Japan.


Crunk's "Demo 02" is now available. One of the most exciting bands today, their 7" "Demo 01" sold out immediately after its release in April 2021. The re-release on CD followed suit, reaching a 3rd press while selling out across the board. The band gained its reputation through a steady stream of live shows, proving positive rumors to be true. With the release of their recordings, their popularity overseas has only increased. Crunk creates a sense of present-day hardcore by leaning into hardcore of the past but combining that with their freedom of expression. Like their previous work, Crunk's old school sound can be heard at the forefront, yet also provides a kind of profoundness. This release surpasses demo quality and teases the potential of future releases.

Crunk - DEMO 01 - CD - Japan.


 https://blitzcore.bigcartel.com/
Crunk appeared like comet shooting out of the sky, smashing into the Tokyo-Yokohama hardcore scene. Videos of one of their very early shows at Nishi Yokohama EL PUENTE were quick to buzz on social media gaining traction even outside of Japan. This is their first release. The artwork is drawn by the band's own vocalist, Yuka, who also works under the pen name TOOLATE.

Passionate vocals blaze atop an old-school hardcore foundation, providing a classic sound with a brand new "something." Although this release is labeled a demo, the overall quality and the details in the mix are unmistakably perfected.
Surpassing greater expectations, Crunk is a band to look out for in the future.

ASSAULT - Early Years - CD + DVD - Japan only.


Japan only CD + DVD -Packaged in a 2CD jewel case comes with an 8-page booklet, traycard & obi -  From the late 90's to the early 2000's, a fierce acceleration based on shadowy lyricism and magnificent development The initial editing board of ASSAULT, which has made a name for itself with its powerful Japanese hardcore sound, completes a total of 10 songs that were not on CD from the demo tape ~ 1st 7ep ~ 2nd 7ep! In addition to the CD, a DVD containing a full set of live performances at Niigata WOODY in 2001 is also included.
A guitar with nicks and crying solos like TRAGEDY and European thrash metal progressing in parallel, a bass that plays a second melody while groaning at the bottom of the ground, a drum that carries a strong sense of speed, emotions just before it sticks out. The style of the 1st album, which is a combination of slamming vocals, is intense because it seems that the balance is being sought while there are multiple member transitions in the group of songs that are recorded in this work and some are re-recorded. There is a strong presence.
The Japanese hardcore band of this era incorporated a lot of "metallic" elements, but this one reiterates that the band that was "metal" but also "hardcore" as much as ASSAULT was rare.

PAINTBOX - Singing Shouting Crying - CD - Japan.


 Formed with the aim of creating "the landscape of hardcore," the release of PAINTBOX's trailblazing first album in 1999 set the scenery. A true masterpiece of the genre, CHELSEA's songwriting channels MUNE's vocal style of "screaming the melodies" to a chilling harmony. The band's backbone, SUGURU's drums, braces a unique sense of speed that sets the band free to run. These various elements intertwined result in a one-of-kind work by an unrivaled band. Only this first album has undergone the latest remastering and the cover art features a new version of the LP with further alterations.

猿芝居 (Sarushibai) ‎– 日陰者の憂鬱 - 12″ LP - red vinyl -Japan - band only / 75.


band only copies limited to 75 copies only direct from Sukekiyo Furukawa who is the singer/guitarist in the hardcore band Sarushibai and drummer in the hardcore band Snot. https://blitzcore.bigcartel.com/
Superb LP, really into these guys - 75 copies only on red vinyl with OBI and lyric sheet.
Sarushibai - The Melancholy of the Social Outcasts - LP.
Somewhere along the way, the world of DIY punk became extremely codified. A lot of the current punk enjoyed by myself and everybody else is very paint-by-the-numbers, genre-specific, self-referential. Play like THIS, sound like THAT, ideas that are easily identified and collectively understood.
But punk wasn't always this way. And I think Sarushibai prove that even now, it doesn't necessarily have to be. Sarushibai has the spirit of adventurousness and the willingness to take chances that I associate with ADK Records bands like The Stalin and Aburadako, LSD and Kikeiji, or with early American punk like Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Dangerhouse Records. For me, Sarushibai harken back to a time when punk was more about "attitude" and its expression was more free and individualistic, and not set with so much regimented formality.
Clearly The Stalin and Kikeiji are starting points, but Sarushibai create their own journey through loneliness and sadness, inferiority and abnormality, weaving in a variety of instruments and influences to create a unique experience that still resonates as PUNK. Because what is punk if not music for outcasts?

EYESCREAM - THE END - Complete Discography - CD - Japan.


 release date 16/02/2022 https://blitzcore.bigcartel.com/
The discography CD of Sendai's female vocal hardcore band "EYESCREAM"
From the formation in 2018 to the last live in 2019, Sendai was disbanded while attracting a lot of attention in a very short period of activity. The treasure of EYESCREAM's discography CD!
The 1st cassette tape released in an almost unknown state has spread from the word-of-mouth level to the whole country and the world. The sound with abundant 80's hardcore taste, on the contrary, had a brilliant impact on this era. The vocal that shouts a strong message with bare emotions is also tremendous, showing the ability that is not different from the topicality.
As a single sound source, two cassette tapes, NO NO NO, and a 3-way split with menstrual blood have been released, but all of them are currently difficult to obtain and are in a state of soaring. This work is a complete discography that includes all of those sound sources and almost all the live sound sources at Nishi-Yokohama EL PUENTE on August 11, 2019, which was unfortunately disbanded live.
