v/a - "Order of the Kite Vol.1" 2xLp

First volume of the Order Of the Kite compilation series. Any fans of Japanese hardcore out there? Here is something for you. This two-part double LP compilation is a who's who of the underground scene, covering any key market from Tokyo to Sendai. Mostly released in the second half of the eighties -- with just a bunch of 1984 seven inches -- these tracks are a pretty rare example of suburban violence. Often influenced by English d-beat and Italy's early fast and furious hardcore agenda, those bands were more than a menace to the system. Here, for the first time on vinyl, two mandatory compilations (along with ORDER 002LP) depicting the decline of the Eastern civilization. Featuring Anti-Septic, Crime, Z, Disarray, The Sexual, and M78.
