23 Sex, Drugs and Chiptune |
One year after our official debut, we are here to declare our love for a jingle that has always been played during rehearsals and included in every our release. If you don't know what we're talking about, it only means that:
You've never listened to our music (shame on you :D)
You've never watched Excel Saga (how is that even possible??)
You are not Japanese (well, no one is perfect)
So, please enjoy this experimental work entirely based on this jingle! Let's celebrate our first year of life with such moving and inspiring theme! This time we decided to go with the unusual 8cm CD format (very popoular in Japan during the 90's). It seems that every our new release comes with more and more inserts and extras. So this time you'll find not less than SIX amazing inserts (five on coloured cardboard):

This project is full of quotes, inside jokes and puns that not everybody will be able to properly understand, but we are sure you'll still enjoy it entirely and maybe have your own personal interpretation.
And please, follow this advice: In your life and in music as well, don't take everything too seriously! You'll live a way better life, trust us.

The album title came out one day from Aster's mind (the album title itself is a subtle citation). Before that, there was two or three possible titles, like the simple "First Anniversary" (using a similar visual concept of the Malice Mizer tape with that name) and "Indiscriminata Attack Vol.3" (like the old third Rommel demo release on tape).
A lot of ideas never had the chance to be recorded. For example, there was a track for which Bisso wanted to use his DIY Atari Punk Console, but something went wrong with the final soldering and there hasn't been time to recreate it before the Firifì's recording's deadline
As already said, quotes and inside jokes are everywhere in this release. You can find them in the art concept, in photos, in song's titles and obviously in music. I can say that some are related to あやまんJAPAN, Rosenfeld, あずまんが大王, Excel Saga, LOUDNESS, Yoshiki, .hack//G.U., Banjo Kazooie, Domine and so on...
