It’ll be no surprise to regular visitors to the store that Brassneck has a love for Japanese punk bands. I’ve been stocking Japanese releases since 2010 and there’s finally a specific ‘Japanese punk’ section in the store to access these releases in one place.
Plus, there’s a bunch more records that have just been added to that category for you to check out. There’s traditionally very little digital music presence for these releases, so there’s an element of risk involved just like when we used to discover bands from thanks lists and flyers back in the old days. But that was always half of the excitement right? Take my word for it, the melodic punk underground in Japan is still delivering the goods. This is what’s new, but there’s plenty more besides.
1000 TRAVELS OF JAWAHARLAL / MINORITY BLUES BAND – Split LP
the Floppy-Pinkies – Bet It 10” (red)
THE GIMMIES – Lost Last Recordings 7”
GLEAM GARDEN / The Tim Version – Split 7”
Stupid Plots – Should And Want EP 7” + Fanzine
THREE MINUTE MOVIE – I Know Because 7”
THREE MINUTE MOVIE / LITTERS – Split 7”
What-A-Night's – With The Neon Rats LP
WITHOUT – Mind Haze 7”
Additionally, Japanese import CDs from the Down And Outs, The Dahlmanns, THE GTO’s & WEAK have just been added alongside the existing stock, so CD fans, please take note.
