I like Super Roots 6.

― deanomgwtf!!!p%3Fmsgid%3D4581997 (deangulberry), Thursday, 3 June 2004 17:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I only heard Super Roots 5 once; it was like an hour-long Bad Brains song. I think eYe credits it as the turning point in the Bore discog. Never seen a copy...

Of the ones you listed, Super Roots 6 is best. Being as you tend to also like a bunch of noisier stuff, you might actually like Super Roots 5 (not sure if it's still as rare as it used to be - apparently, someone "found" a bunch of copies stored in a Warner Japan warehouse last year, and you started seeing them pop up pretty cheap on ebay). Anyway, it's not punk, more like an hour long noise-ambient thing, mostly cymbals and subtle sound effects. Pretty hard to take I think if you're listening closely the whole time, but not bad to use as strange background music.

Super Roots 3 is the one that sounds like Bad Brains to me, a 30 minute hardcore punk song, and I would agree is the turning point in their discography from playing fragmented splice-punk into playing more groove oriented stuff. But this isn't groove, it's hardcore, and really not *that* interesting. SR 1&2 are similar to what they were doing on Choc Synth and Pop Tatari. I think SR2 was actually only ever available with the Japanese issue of Choc Synth, though I downloaded it from somewhere, so you can find it.

Any word on Voredoms, I think I mentioned upthread that the DVD is be rereleased, is this a Warner Japan signal to expect a VoOoOOredoms release?

Ok, does anyone know when the KXLU radio set floating around slsk is from? There's what appears to be an early version of Super Are You on it. I have another live version that makes it seem more like Chocolate Syth/Super Roots 1 era stuff.

More track IDs to come!

jon, of your list above, super roots 6 is most essential.

from dleone's pitchfork review today:
1988's Onanie Bomb Meets the Sex Pistols ("onanie" being Japanese slang for "female masturbation")

"Onanie Bomb" is the rough English translation of Genbaku Onanies, the very first hardcore band from Japan. "Onanie" is a transliteration of the latin "onanism" which pertains to either sex last time i checked! :-D

By saying "Genbaku Onanies meets the Sex Pistols" they were trying to clue in potential listeners to what the band's influences were.

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 7 June 2004 14:40 (twenty-two years ago)

one more thing jon, that particular set was on a summer afternoon in 1995, the day of an awesome show at the palace in hollywood with thinking fellers union local 282. we ate at a mediocre chinese place across the street (is that place still there?). that was the debut of the "super ae" material in the usa.

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 7 June 2004 14:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Gygax!, have you read the liner notes for the Mukai Chie / Yamamoto Sei'ichi CD? too much funny about LAMONES YOUNG!!

What does "kansai" mean?

Also: Nankai Hawkwind - RFI? (Eye, Nishida of Danse Macabre and Edi from Genbaku Onanies)

Apparently there was a whole series of noise bands whose names were puns on sports team + other band! and some compillation of said bands called Aiyoku Jinmin Juni Kyudan.

The liner notes go on about PRO WRESTLING pun noise bands!

Also, the notes talk about the idea of playing classic punk songs really slow. Hmmm...

Thanks for THE INFO!

NANKAI HAWKWIND
Nankai Hawkwind (Japan 7",Watanabe Records/Underground (Japan)--001--7" single) 1987

No line-up details, but a line-up I was given for their listing in the Guitar Barrio anti discography was: CHERRY--Vocals; EYE**--Vocals; EDDIE--Bass; ISONO--Drums; KITAJIMA--Guitar; MURANAOHITO--Guitar; SUGISAKU--Keyboards.

[Tracks/times?]

A Japanese art/noise supergroup. Their name was a play on the baseball team the Nankai Hawks (now known as the Daiei Hawks) and the English prog band Hawkwind. This single included some strands of the members' hair. [Print status?]

― HAMBURGER NEURON GROUP (ex machina), Monday, 7 June 2004 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

amoeba has that mukai/yamamoto split for $7.99... i'll check it out.

yeah, i am always mispelling japanese words (in romanji) so i am forgiving when i read liner notes or lyrics.

kansai = japanese region where osaka/kyoto are (ie, where boredoms are from).

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 7 June 2004 14:56 (twenty-two years ago)

damn you gygax - where were you when I was using my memory to fact check this thing?

― dleone (dleone), Monday, 7 June 2004 15:02 (twenty-two years ago)

great japanese band names

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 7 June 2004 15:15 (twenty-two years ago)

are there any recordings (live or not) of the band Eye, Hira and Yamamoto were in before Boredoms (Acid Makki & something)?

― dleone (dleone), Monday, 7 June 2004 15:19 (twenty-two years ago)

not sure, but i can ask yamamoto in a couple days... ?

Also, Dominique thanks for the entertaining Boredoms read, but you know ... pitchfork ... ahem.

― Ian c=====8 (orion), Tuesday, 8 June 2004 23:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Just heard Super Ae for the first time tonight. For the first ten minutes or so I was like "ah, this isn't anything special", but after hearing where it went from there, wow. This is the shit right here. Also got VCN which I only heard like twice 3 years ago, I'll give it a spin later tonight. Thanks for the tip on Super Ae, Jon.

― Anchovie, Wednesday, 9 June 2004 04:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Stand in the place where you weeeeeeere!

FWIW I heard Omoide Hatoba before the Boredoms. They played their stuff on KPFA in Berkeley's Pitch a Fit almost 10 years ago. Who cares.

oh I couldn't think of a vu side project so I typed the first vu related thing that popped into my head
