LSD-march
Suddenly, like flames

[Click here for audio samples]

"Downer murk and amp-flaming distorto rock from a young Japanese psychedelic rock trio in the wasted, wigged-out tradition of many on those PSF Tokyo Flashback comps, also harking further back of course to underground '70s lo-fi legends Les Rallizes Denudes! LSD-march, named for a track on the first, heaviest album by krautrockers Guru Guru, slowly whisper and wander through a veil of feedback and plodding rhythms. There's both gentle and searing stuff to be found here. These guys are more serious, mysterious and melancholy than Acid Mothers Temple, with a definite Velvets vibe at times. And when the guitars get cranked, this sounds like the Neil Youngiest of Nagisa Ni Te freakouts. With liner notes (and stamp of approval) from translator/psych expert Alan Cummings."

Comparisons could be made to Les Rallizes Denudes, the first PSF Fushitsusha, White Heaven, Shizuka, and perhaps most appropriately Miminokoto. Known mostly because of their tracks on the Night Gallery compilations, LSD-march has become almost as legendary for their unavailability as they have for their incredible music. This is a reissue of their second LP, self-released in an edition of less than 300 that never made it out of Japan. LVD is proud to make 'Suddenly, like flames' available to the Western world for the first time. Includes bonus material, liner notes and lyric translations by Alan Cummings as well as new artwork from Jeffrey Alexander of Black Forest/Black Sea.
