SEEKING SHINING PEOPLE to RE-RELEASE HANADENSHA'S OUT OF PRINT ALBUM "NARCOTIC GUITAR" - oui oui
BOREDOMS... Actually I am simply a die hard fan (starry Blake (Skiesfalling)) who wants to enlighten all to this very obscure and beautiful happening that exists and is known to so few.... BOREDOMS..I would love to create a surge of interest and hopefully bring this band back into existence so Hira, if you're listening or in tune, you will know and see soon enough. Hira is the bassist of the BOREDOMS and Hanadensha was a side project of his back in the early to mid 90's.
As much as I am a Huge fan, I really have no idea how accurate any of my information about this band is, but this is what I have come across among various resources over the net.....BOREDOMS... Unfortunately I can't read Japanese or I might know a lot more about this band, ......although, maybe there isn't much out there about them at all. So of course if any of you out there know more about Hanadensha VOOREDOMS feel free to message me.
First and foremost, and the reason you see BOREDOMS all over this page is because HIRA, the bassist of the Boredoms was the leader in spearheading this side project. I also believe the drummer from Hanadensha is now playing with the Boredoms as well. Anyways, the 4 piece released a few albums in the indie rock era of 1991-93 that are much more prog and indie rock but what freaks me out the most blowing my mind and kisses my synapsis are the albums released in between 1995 and 1997. VOOREDOMS...With the addition of another space cadet the band transformed into a much more experimental and expansive sound only to be galaxies outside of the normal spheres doing things I've never heard anyone else do quite the same....BOREDOMS....
Narcotic Guitar easily one of the best and most creative albums of all time was released in 1995 and is now out of print and one of the hardest albums you'll ever find! I ordered mine direct from some website in Japan and soon thereafter they were out of print. ...VOOREDOMS....Narcotic Guitar is definitely very out there but also contains a bit more conventional framework in the songs.... BOREDOMS.....They also released 3 eps in 1997- Astral Pigmy Wave, Acoustic Mothership and Doobie Shining Love are still accesible (I think?!?!) and 3 very creative beautifully psychedelic washes of sound with enough melody to keep you somewhat in this atmosphere....BOREDOMS... I don't really know much of their history beyond that except they stopped releasing music to the known audio world.
You can order the 3 eps from this website
