Recorded live in 1982, and originally issued as a limited cassette edition by the notorious label of the Tokyo underground, La Musica Records. Kadotani's music has previously only been documented on a 1991 CD on P.S.F. (entitled \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eRotting Telepathies\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e), and the recently rediscovered '87 KAD 3:4:5:6 set, which makes this disinterring of a highly limited 1990s La Musica cassette edition particularly significant. The unrelenting dunt of the rhythm section here, locked-in and revolving around Nanjo's bowel-rumbling bass, is the perfect foil for Kadotani's guitar -- sometimes cutting, sometimes spindly -- and the stream of babble that was his vocal style. It's frazzled but underpinned by viciously sharp logic. A beautiful representation of Kadotani, the man Nanjo once called \"the only real punk in Japan.\" Available for the first time on LP or any physical form aside from a small run of hand assembled cassettes on the Japanese La Musica label in mid '90s (LA-107). Housed in a custom die-cut, \"Uni-Pak\" style gatefold with metallic ink, spot finishes and matching La Musica inner sleeve. La Musica Records was a label founded by Asahito Nanjo in Tokyo during the 1990s. It released nearly 200 cassettes and CD-r's, all handmade in micro-editions sold at shows. The catalog featured artists and recordings largely of obscure, often completely unknown origin, sanctioned and \"grey-area\" documentation of the Tokyo psychedelic underground.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCo-released with La Musica Records\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black Editions\/La Musica","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":48335437103323,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2295\/2925\/files\/BELA007107LP_CU.jpg?v=1773076468","url":"https:\/\/www.fusetronsound.com\/products\/rotting-telepathies-rotting-trapes-ii","provider":"fusetron","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
