xpost: my pleasure! I hope this one isn't brickwalled like the others.

This Citta 93 set is fantastic. I don't have the 13CD bootleg mentioned by StanM above so it was all new to me. The version of The Last One is epic.

So apparently BAUS '93 is coming - this is where CITTA '93 showed up for Japan only before Temporal Drift picked it up for the rest of the world. Rumors are pre-orders coming in November for early 2024 release:

oh nice, with a DVD as well - thanks for the news! :-)

Google Translate calls this band the Naked Rally's :-)

I'm guessing it's not going to be a live video recording of the show from beginning to end, if they describe it like this: "The first production edition of the CD also comes with a DVD containing a video work created by Akira Uji, who used to be in charge of visual production for Rally's, using videos taken of the stage performance that day."

Yeah, working my way through Citta '93 right now, absolutely incredible. Great quality.

The recording quality is pretty amazing, but...I really like the ultra-blown-out, Mainliner/High Rise-ish sound of '77 Live, and other Rallizes stuff, both earlier and later, that's more conventionally "psychedelic" doesn't really do it for me in the way their skull-squashing sonic attack material does.

Yeah I can totally get that, this is definitely "cleaner" sounding as compared to '77 Live and older boots. But I kind of like hearing it all a little more clearly and I think this epic "The Last One" still bulldozes my brain and ears.

Just got the notification from Temporal Drift that my Citta '93 vinyl has shipped.

and BAUS '93 up for pre-order from Temporal Drift (vinyl or CD/DVD):

Citta '93 is pure destruction in sound.

I hope they can improve the sound on the Baus bootleg because it's a pretty stellar show as well

i'm really curious to check out the "mizutani" record; delicate acoustic psych from LRD sounds intriguing

Thanks for the heads up, pre-ordered the vinyl. Would have been annoyed if it had been sold out as I never got an email from them announcing this despite being on their mailing list.

same

leaked. the sound is miles better than the bootleg, this is Citta level of audio quality, I'd say.

Good to hear!

darkness fucking returns!!!!!!

New photo/lyric book just announced. Very expensive, but I couldn't resist:

Temporal Drift has put a few copies of the Romance of the Black Pain otherwise Fallin' Love 12" that sold out immediately when it was put up before up on Bandcamp:

Love this pic. He is old, things don't quite fit maybe and yet..
