LOOP


Sometimes I think bands like this can only come from Japan (this LOOP did) when I hear J-Pop influences creeping into indulgent, angular post-punk. "Leaf" could sit along any number of late '80s college/alt rosters (I'm talking Merge, Simple Machines, or maybe bands who loved SHONEN KNIFE), while the remaining three tracks on this demo sit a bit more on the outside. I'm pretty sure I got this in Nagasaki, but it was a really long time ago, so you'll forgive me if I can't quite remember.
