Shellac - Live in Tokyo, 1994



I pulled this one out from deep in the e-archives, buried under zeros and ones and bytes in shit. Though I've had a copy of this for many years I only recently learned it was an actual Japan-only release on Zeni Geva guitarist KK Null's NUX ORGANIZATION label.


One note regarding this release located on the Webz:

When I had Steve & the band autograph the sleeve of the disc, Weston informed me that not only was it a Japan-only release, but specific orders had been given not to export it from Japan.


So this is Shellac before they got all melody-conscious and soft and pussified. I'm kidding. They aren't that, though later releases show more of a leaning toward humor than graphic (ugly) realism. The malady of age Anydong, this ain't a comment on what was and what shall ever be but an offering of a moment in time. Seriously, Shellac rules. Always will. This is huevos.
