ROCKY & The SWEDEN - CITY BABY ATTACKED BY BUDS - CD Japan.
Pre-order - release date 24th October - their last 7" sold out in one day with the label, so have a go at this beaut here - - https://blitzrecords.bigcartel.com/
ROCKY & The SWEDEN, after the 7" released on August 8, 2019, which sold out completely on the same day, they have finally released a full album for the first time in 19 years. Their previous "TOTAL HARD CORE" and "GOD SAVE THE GREEN" albums are both counted as important works in the hardcore world, and are still often listed as favorites regardless of whether they are overseas or in Japan.
First of all, through the album, I'm in the middle of the “rockyness” you might expect. As a new element derived from it, the guitar work of new member KAZUKI SWEDEN should be noted. You will be shocked by the harmony that pops out in the “VOICE” head intro recorded in the second song. In addition, "GREEN RIOT" and "WEED WEED WEED" recorded on the 7-inch released as the foundation of this work are also included. And at “UNITE & WIN”, which hangs at the end of this album, a great circle with CAPTAIN “KOBA” SWEDEN.
The most striking jacket image is by OKANO MASATO, an up-and-coming artist living in NY. Also like the 7-inch, I want to pay attention and tribute to this album as a piece of “Total Hard Core”.
