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!

got this last night: its pretty good in a sort of blue humans vein (I suppose its more to do with instrumentation and the fact that doyle is there). I'll have to hear this a few more times before i can say more on it.
― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 15 May 2003 10:32 (twenty-one years ago) link
The fact that I first thought it was "subtle" only shows the depth of my guitar-noise jadedness. It pretty much singes your eyebrows off. The tempo is slower overall. There is a very cool one-chord blues vamp that sounds a bit like John Lee Hooker on moonshine & ayahuasca, and though it claims to all be from one source, I suspect it may not be. THere are differences in sound, songs fade a bit too slowly, revealing the beginning of the next song to have actually been another one.
Thanks for the report on the Doyle disc Julio.........
Also, Ed is already out of High Or Die. Happy hunting.

maybe i'm missing the point, having only heard '77 live, but i can't help that thinking people can get a bit overexcited when something is a) japanese b) noisy and c) hard to find.

unless you start explaining the 'pointlessness' of it all and in what way it 'misreads' psychedelia you will end looking a fule.

you are gonna have to give me examples of this. I think what rallizes do (two guitars feeding back and virtually bleeding into each other) with constant bass/drum pattern is something that no band I've heard of sounds like.
what is so 'hackish' abt their 'bluesy' guitar solos? You see, they are lifted from the blues but its not menat to be exactly like blues and so what if the bass parts are lifted from hendrix. The only thing you can say abt bass parts is that they are repeating pattern. Its mixed high up and it heightens the 'body blow' effect but its something to hang onto as they throw these formless guiatr shapes for 10 + minutes, same with the drums, which sound competent to me.
And song isn't their strong point but its a mix of song and jamming. its psych rock so you're gonna get that.

i think people have overintellectualized responses to this band, i really do. if it was just a tape of your brother-in-law's pick-up band you'd probably toss it in the bin (but discreetly, so as not to offend the brother-in-law). i will, however, give les rallizes denudes another chance just so i'm not guilty of condeming something without trying to understand it first.

heh.
funny you should mention neil young bcz just on wednesday i got hold of the 'red' and 'green' CDRs and I got reminded of Neil Young (guitars not as distorted as live 77, basically comes down to that). I think the blue cheer connection come from the use of distortion whereas the velvets comes from the use of repeating basslines and drum patterns.
but yeah, its a lot of things.

Watch for Les Rallizes Denudes & Yellow - Sessions at Fussa double disc. Also, I wasn't aware until recently that there were 2 Doyle/Mizutani trio shows recorded... Hiroshi Nar has been releasing a ton of stuff, including a live thing with Nishinihon.
