Album Cover  

Holy shit does this album ever kick ass! It's a blast from the first second to the last. Even the more mellow songs pack enough punch to make you raise the volume and compulsively headbang right there and then. It all starts off with a bang as well, the firs few second of Black Bouquet are so fucking intense they practically make Fushitsusha pale in comparison (well, let's not push it - but they will wrap your brain in a warm hazy ball of psychotropic mayhem). The constant buzzing of songs like Yellow Sea and Clepsydra Flames or the far-out feedback fuzz of 1997 will have you so revved up you'll probably become a health hazard for anything within a two mile perimeter. LSD March's studio albums might be good and the fuzzed-out goodness might be there as well, but it's on these lo-fi live settings that they blow minds away. An absolutely incredible (and limited - it's on ArchiveCD remember?) album.
