This is kind of a "best of" when it comes to different #Fushitsusha styles, and may serve as a suitable starting point for newcomers to what is the best free form rock band of all time. It certainly worked for me. If you can handle the chaos of the first track, next up is heavy hitters like "Pathetique", Haino's trademark extreme vocals with sparse backing, a long, almost post-rock like track with "pretty" singing...and some more beautiful cacophony. #music #KeijiHaino

#NowPlaying Feeling in the mood for some #Fushitsusha heaviness. This is “Purple Trap” (The Wound That Was Given Birth to Must Be Bigger Than the Wound That Gave Birth), a double CD released in 1995 by #BlastFirst, recorded live in London. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNapiEhiLAk

https://youtube.com/watch?v=76of5x5pbaE&si=RQFtRab0Ps364YQR #KeijiHaino live always brings intense energies in whatever guise his set takes. I’m glad I’ve seen him live at least once. That was in rock band form but I can’t recall if it was with his group #Fushitsusha or another group of musicians. Either way I remember him still using a few of the same gadgets he uses here. I love the hand synth device he employs toward the end of this footage.

Dunno how many #fushitsusha fans there are out here - a #noisey #japanese #psych band, if you're not familiar - but I'm listening to the so-called secret black box and there's an absolutely revolting version of Pathetique right here.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1n6ihxcm6k Black Editions' re-issue of Shizuka's Heavenly Persona appeared in the post the other day. A very beautiful re-issue it is too, with lovely full-size pictures of terrifying goth ball-joint dolls by Shizuka herself. The record is astonishing, if 'like #lesRallizesDenudes but better' appeals. Featuring a member of the other #Japanese #noiseRock titans #Fushitsusha who, regular readers might be aware, I regard as the best band (or at least tied with the Fall).

Anyway. That's what's up.
