Innocents - "Masho + 25 Tracks" CD 2009

Sovie-Homie Paul's second bday gift (wow, how sad, mp3s as gifts :p )!

One of the few bands I can hang with in the "traditional" Japcore style (anything that isn't influenced by Chaos U.K.). Clug-chunk early Agnostic Front up-tempo tough guy hardcore meets hard rock...that all of a sudden busts straight into blastbeats (band was around in '88, S.O.B. beat them out a few years prior). Don't get too excited, those moments are relegated to their demo. But still, there's that typical melodramatic sing-along vibe that the Japanese mastered at birth, and everyone else goes nuts for. Not essential, but fun nonetheless. Fave track: "Mammy". No one else ever noticed the O.G. Nintendo on the cover? No one?
