I only have the live album on Persona Non Grata, but a fine blast of downer PSF Jap weirdness it is for sure.

Wow, she made awesome goth dolls too!

A little bit of talk here from a few months ago: http://noise.as/forum/index.php/topic,167.0.html

I got a malware warning message when I tried to click on that noise.as forum link. I was really into "Shizuka Live" when it came out. I still have it - I should pull it out and give it a listen. RIP.

The forum is very much safe and above board as far as I know. I use it regularly without problems.

I'm using Google Chrome, and I get this message:

"The website at noise.as contains elements from the site www.ihurtnow.com, which appears to host malware – software that can hurt your computer or otherwise operate without your consent. Just visiting a site that contains malware can infect your computer.

Probably somebody linked to something innocuous there, and the Chrome browser is just being hyper-sensitive.

heard their first lp today and it hit pretty hard. beautiful stuff.
