Majutsu No Niwa - Ecstatic Crystalization

Ecstatic Crystalization by Majutsu No Niwa

4...according to our on Wed 23 Feb, 2011.

You never know what you're gonna get with these lads, formed from the ashes of the genius Overhang Party. When this tape came in I was reminiscing about the time I stuck one of their CDs on in here expecting some blazin' jams, only to be greeted with some sort moderately psychedelic lo-fi pub rock (and much piss-taking). Here they've got their proper serious heads on, offering up two sides of intense, feedback-drenched instrumental guitar dronage which I'm finding very satisfying. Like many in the Japanese underground over the years they're obviously totally into the Velvet Underground and this tape sees them exploring the noisier end of that particular inspiration - definitely a wise move for them if you ask me.

Metempsychosis of FUKUOKA Rinji, Overhang Party~Majutsu no Niwa which began by unexpected 'La Fièvre' passed through 'Serchin' for my Layline' 'La Vena'and reached 'Ecstatic Crystallization'.
The rearguard Rock having neither the progress nor the step backward, or aesthetics of reactionary conservatism. The heavy peals of 'Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung' or 'Ewige Wiederkunft des Gleichen'. Continuo which continues drifting in the depths of the pop pieces to hear in past issue.
Experience eternal rock'n roll theater 'now come out'.
joint release with sloow tapes(Belgium) . This is CD version limited 250.
