les rallizes denudes rfi

In fact, I recall reading abt the time SY took Descension as the support act and they were apparently heckled. Descension do make that sort of blistering sound.

It's a pity I don't have a CD burner. These MP3 files are stuck in the prison that is my computer hard drive! The only thing that makes me think (if I play this loud enough it might actually damage my speakers).

Theres a new taj mahal travellers reissue as reviewed on the latest wire as well. prob. pick it up.

The sequencing is wrong. Here's the track listing, from rallizes web page:

1. Enter the Mirror 11'30"

2. ???????12'04"

3. ???16'12"

4. ?????11'35"

1. ?????15'32"

2. ???????8'30"

3. The Last One 25'24"

Disk 1: 2nd track is called 'Night of the Assassins' 3. Flames of Ice 4. A memory is far Disk 2: don't have the translation to 1 and 2.

The first 3 tracks on disc 1 is OK (1 and 2 on 'side 1' of the vinyl. Flames of ice on 'side 2' but A memory is far is not the last track on the vinyl. That is the 8:30 secs one on disc 2).

Its a straight swap (since it probably wouldn't fit due to the time considerations). Can you fit 27+ mins onto one side of vinyl?

Also the last (i think) 10 secs of memory is far is missing (just noting this, if you 15.32+11.35 that is slightly more than 27 mins). But i think my MP3 of the 'last one' is 21 mins long whereas I think they have all 25 mins onto vinyl (the bassline is the same 'melody' but it's a slightly different tuning I think, but I'll have to check).

I'm wondering also why didn't they bootleg it onto 2xCDs. maybe vinyl was cheaper...

It's a very good record. and when it's that good things like artwork don't matter. My small speakers connected to my computer cannot do justice to the sound of this band as I play the Mp3s. but my stereo speakers can as I play the vinyl (though it would surely pale in comparison to seeing this stuff live). So I'm glad I got it. Amazing what some of these bands were working at on the other side of the planet (recorded 'le 12 mars 1977 a Tachikawa' as it says on the webpage). It is a psychedelic rock record but the way they go on their 'noise assault' is pretty remarkable. so if you have a shitty computer get hold of it (I had most of these as MP3s but I had to get it).

(if anyone here has it etc etc x 100000000000000)

ah, stephen cooper, where are you? you emailed me and we chatted for a while and now you're gone 4evah!

there are a couple of things labelled variously "mass studio demo" or "mars studio demo" that are somewhat different - one features two versions of "romance of black grief" (i think) that are surprisingly subtle and have some nice tape-delay messing about. the other (september 9th, 1980) is atypical rallizes stuff with some noisy guitar.

the "red" cdr is pretty good, too, but as with all rallizes stuff they generally just did the same batch of songs again and again.

slsk!

thanks, your null fame; btw, are you on slsk? cos i'm d/ling rallizes stuff from someone whose user name isn't all that far from yours.

Eclipse [Iskra 001]
Axis Another Revolvable Thing 1 [Offbeat ORLP-1005]

1. Strong Out Deeper Than the Night (no, it is not supposed to be "strung")
2. Reapers of the Night

yeah if anyone has this stuff and is up for tape trading. gimme gimme email.

They are the japanese grateful dead but like better than that. hopefully some shit will appear some day.

Anyone interested in Japanese psych/scuzz should seek the Gaseneta disc on PSF. 1978-era total punk garbage guitar that influenced High Rise later (who apparently shared some music on a cassette release with Gaseneta). Imagine speed-psych acid mothers minus the reverb, with a lot grottier production and a guy plowing through solos ultra-fast with gloves on...hits the spot for me!

same :-(

Eh, I have been looking for a reasonably priced copy of '77 Live for years (certainly not paying the $130 they are currently going for), so I'll just have to deal with one that is slightly inferior.

This is the one to get. Nice packaging, really good sound.

Definitely more affordable! Saw that one at one point, but wasn't sure if it was the same material.

FYI - if you were like me and ordered any of the new CDs from Temporal Drift, the bandcamp page now says they won't be shipped until January 26, 2023

Looks like we got another bonus release:

https://www.discogs.com/release/25401199-Les-Rallizes-D%C3%A9nud%C3%A9s-Romance-Of-The-Black-Pain-Otherwise-Fallin-Love-With

Bonus 12" of material from that couldn't be included on the '67-'69 Studio Et Live and Mizutani / Les Rallizes Dénudés LP reissues.

my vinyl copy of OZ Days finally arrived. sounds fantastic.

Mine arrived a week or two ago - been on a lot & yes it sounds great

Trying again on the right thread this time...

Has anyone else that pre-ordered any of the three LRD CDs from Temporal Drift received a shipping notification or anything? Supposedly these were to be shipped out a couple weeks ago, but I haven't heard or seen anything.

Was gonna ask — I've heard nothing.

Just emailed the label; will post whatever response I get.

Thanks

I ordered the 3LP of 77 Live and it says it's shipping tomorrow so we shall see.

Exciting news—The CD and LP releases of Les Rallizes Dénudés' '67-'69 STUDIO et LIVE, MIZUTANI / Les Rallizes Dénudés, and '77 LIVE are in production and nearly finished. CD-only orders should ship by mid-Feb. Orders w/ LP+CD should begin shipping by late Feb.

— Temporal Drift (@Temporal_Drift) February 1, 2023

Fwiw, just thought to check Temporal Drift's Instagram and they posted 2 days ago that "CD-only orders are shipping now", so hopefully soon.

ha - good timing

I received my CD of Mizutani yesterday with no prior shipping notice.

FYI, I got an email back from the label:

"We are in the process of packing and shipping hundreds of orders right now. Yours will ship on Friday. Tracking will be live once USPS scans the package."

There was a tracking number included. So I expect it'll arrive next week.

The 3LP oclear vinyl pressing of '77 Live is sold out at the Temporal Drift bandcamp but there still appear to be copies of a red & black vinyl pressing available on Light in the Attic.

Hmm, and yet another pressing on red & black "splatter vinyl" available on Third Man Records. This is getting silly.

Yeah, finally got a shipping notice early this morning.

Me too.

So far Mizutani has been the real revelation for me, I'd never heard that one before and all the other bootlegs I'd had were focused on the blown-out guitar cacophony.

Those vinyl only extra tracks from recent reissues getting the digital release today

https://lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.com/album/romance-of-the-black-pain-otherwise-fallin-love

The version of "The Last One" on Mizutani reminded me of Dadamah, which is some of the highest praise I can offer. The acoustic tracks on the first side are shockingly delicate.

Les Rallizes Dénudés just announced CITTA' '93, check it out here: https://lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.com/album/citta-93

“We are honored and thrilled to share with you the first-ever release of CITTA’ ‘93 by Les Rallizes Dénudés, the first entirely new album to be released as part of the archival and reissue campaign launched in 2021 in collaboration with The Last One Musique. Containing in its entirety a recording of the band’s legendary 1993 performance at Club Citta in Kawasaki, Japan, CITTA’ ‘93 is a tour de force for this seldom-heard era of the Rallizes, destined to be a future classic alongside their definitive showcase ’77 LIVE.

Pre-orders are now live on our Bandcamp, where a limited edition 3LP Silver Vinyl edition is available, along with 3LP Black Vinyl and 2CD sets. Every vinyl order will be bundled with a newsprint poster featuring an iconic photo of Takashi Mizutani by Takehiko Nakafuji, while supplies last.”

= CD1 and 2 of this 13cd bootleg box from 2011

OK, I admit I kinda want to hear a 39-minute version of "The Last One."

Ordered the silver vinyl, thanks for the heads up!

Swear I still have a burnt CD of that '93 from my days on slsk. It's fantastic if that's the same one and it's available.

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:

https://www.lesrallizesdenudes-official.com/en/information/2023-09-27_1510/

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):

https://lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.com/album/baus-93

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:
