Originally released in 1981, this is Mizutama Shōbōdan's legendary debut album. A wild theatrical mix of avant-post-punk material worked out by one of the most uncompromising women's brigades ever. An outstanding document from "another" Japan! Contains printed inner sleeve and four-page fold-out insert.
"Mizutama Shōbōdan were a force of nature -- powerful and original and unapologetic. I saw them live before I heard the first record and was very impressed. I liked the way the group interacted, it was a very good atmosphere between everybody. I really liked the contrasting sounds and styles of Kamura and Tenko, two very different kinds of voices that really worked well together." --Fred Frith

Emerging from the heart of Japan's underground scene, Schedars is an incredible five-piece band with an explosive sound rooted in the post-punk-no-wave aesthetic. Previously self-released and now reissued on a world-wide scale, this is their first full album. A hyper-active blend of sharp singing, psychotic guitars and organs, snaky saxes, infectious bass lines and nervous drums beats. Fans of bands like D.N.A, The Contortions, Phew or early The Ex will find themselves enthralled by Schedars' uncompromising, high-intensity approach. With this first full-length release now reaching a global audience, Schedars is set to carve out a space in the international post-punk landscape, proving that the underground still has plenty of room for raw, visceral, and boundary-pushing sounds. Get ready to experience Schedars -- where controlled chaos meets razor-sharp musical precision.
