FUSHITSUSHA “origins hesitation”
CD PSF
Ok I’ll admit I totally
hated this disc, Fushitsusha stripped down to a duo with Haino, and
now passed long time bassist Ozawa. 2001 studio works that finds the
band playing through percussion loops and lots of experimenting with
other sounds. Not the guitar driven blackness that I think of with Fushitsusha.
Maybe my expectations for “Fushitsusha” drove me away from
this release?? If titled something else I might have enjoyed it more
for what it was instead of what it wasn’t.
I asked Plotkin about this
release when he was down recently and he said he liked so what the hell
do i know??

KOUSOKUYA “shinjuku jam
2006” DVD PSF
2 of the last live sets of
ultra obscure Tokyo psychedelic rock trio preformed in Shinjuku prior
to leader Jutok Kaneko untimely passing. Single camera live concert
footage with good sound and no effects give a glimpse of Kousokuya in
what most likely was their classic line-up of Mick on bass and Ikura
on drums.

FUSHITSUSHA “15/16”
2 X CD PSF
The second mammoth Fushitsusha
CD release on mothership label PSF. Another double disc even from 91,
and again another of the highly noted releases from the label, the artist,
and the band.

KEIJI HAINO “21st century
hard-y-guide yman” CD PSF8029
Most current release from
the sorcerer of darkness Haino San. Returning this time for an updated
look at a 13 year career on the Hurdy Gurdy. Long playing 66min multi
track CD of nails on the chalk board drones. A bit denser then some
of Haino’s other efforts to date on the ancient medieval instrument.
Comes with a nice 2 page English written history detailing Haino’s
release on the Hurdy Gurdy.

MUSICA TRANSONIC “same”
CD PSF 61
Mythically powerful free form imrpov trio formed by super heavy weights Makota Kawabata (guitar prior to Acid Mother temple international stardom), Nanjo Asahito (bass highrise) and Yoshida Tatsuya (drums Ruins). At times a freak out red lined garage rock attack, and at other times a probing gentler improv type of interplay, all makes sense I suppose with the meeting of the players on this disc recorded in 95.
