Les Rallizes denudes

Les Rallizes? FUck YEAH


one of the greatest examples of 60s Japanese liberation freak out, along with Takehisa Kosugi and Yasunao Tone's flux-era reworking of traditional Noh theatre in their band 'Group Ongaku' (check THAT shit out!). I'm sure if Alan Cummings were around he'd rant about them for a long long time...


I vote 'Heavier than a Death in the Family' as the greatest all-time record name, though i'm sure many people would disagree...

hold tight melbourne-fans of this most venerably obscure continuum. seek out Flower travellin' Band's satori for extra cred!

yeah!

this 40ish minute long version of Flames Of ice!



Les Rallizes Denudes - Live 18th December 1982, Hosei University, Tokyo, Japan

every line up of the Rallizes has its merits but the early 1980s incarnation fully understood plod and repetition

"play loud'

my vote would be for "Blind Baby Has Its Mothers Eyes"
