Sun Children Sunの1stデモが7インチアナログ盤としてSPHC、MORE NOISE共同リリース再発。



Describing this record is tough. The obvious starting point is Vi-Vi Punx, but that's an awfully obscure reference. I normally sum it up as "the shit-fi remix of the last Paintbox album", but that doesn't quite do it justice. Perhaps you could say "Naked City lounging around at a beach, sipping iced tea and taking in a nice sunshiny day", but, I dunno, what does that even mean?

Sun Children Sun on these recordings is a rudimentary, minimalist, and eclectic mix of fast hardcore, ska, reggae, and pop-punk. Genius in its uncompromising disregard for style, formula, or expectations, to create a totally wild and unique experience. Overflowing with positive attitude and charisma, shining brightly with fun-loving energy. An irresistible record. Cool and forward-thinking punk music like this always reminds me of all the reasons why I wanted to release records in the first place.

I'm going to eat my own words here a little bit and release a demo on a 7", despite my otherwise outspoken stance against this practice. I will lay out why:

1. It is my favorite new (as in within the past 2 years) Japanese punk band, and I'd do anything for them.
2. It's a demo that went largely unheard and ignored except by an elite cadre of scum collectors and noise believers, so the material will still feel fresh and new to just about everybody.
3. Frankly, this demo is better than most band's proper records, top quality,
4. and frankly, this demo has never ceased to be in steady rotation ever since I heard it in 2011. Obvious staying power.
5. and Jo2 told me I'd be cool if I did LOL.

so, whatever.
USA tour with Lotus Fucker.....someday
