Our Take

Ah, Les Rallizes Dénudés, the enigmatic Japanese psych-rock pioneers that seem to exist in a perpetual state of mystery and intrigue. Their latest release, Azabu Studio Demo 1985 Vol. 1, is a tantalizing glimpse into their shadowy sonic world.

The album kicks off with a cacophony of feedback and distortion, setting the tone for a wild ride through the band's raw and unfiltered sound. From the haunting vocals to the dissonant guitar riffs, each track is a sonic assault on the senses that leaves you simultaneously exhilarated and exhausted.

Tracks like "Night of the Assasins" and "White Waking" showcase the band's ability to create a sense of unease and tension that is both thrilling and unnerving. The hypnotic repetition and slow build of each song draw you in, only to leave you feeling disoriented and slightly unhinged by the end.

While the production quality may leave something to be desired, it's this rough-around-the-edges aesthetic that gives the album its charm and authenticity. It's like listening to a bootleg recording of a band playing in a dingy basement, and somehow, that only adds to the allure.

Overall, Azabu Studio Demo 1985 Vol. 1 is a fascinating glimpse into the world of Les Rallizes Dénudés, a band that continues to defy categorization and push the boundaries of what rock music can be. So sit back, strap in, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the depths of Japanese psych-rock.
