Various Artists - Japan Bashing Three

Public Bath PB-7. 1991

No. 493 of 1000

I was busy messing around with noise at the time, but owned mostly guitar based stuff (7 minutes of 
nausea, Anal Cunt, Sore Throat), apart from some Whitehouse and Nurse With Wound.

So I bought this, and I was quite pleased.

The Hanatarash track is quite restrained, not really noisy at all. Cut-ups of reggae riffs and other bits and pieces - quite gentle.

Masonna is captured live, and it's mostly just him screaming through various effects, with a bit of harmonica thrown in. Quite intense and very entertaining.

The Hijo Kaidan track is also live, and just as intense as Masonna. Relentless.

Solmania uses his heavily modified guitar to rip out your spleen.
