A 2009 release from the Nordic electronica specialist label FONAL! Final restock of SHOGUN's limited picture-disc dead stock!
Just looking at the name you might suspect it's a novelty act, but the second album from this four-piece instrumental psych-rock band SHOGUN KUNITOKI is surprisingly great. Released on the Nordic electronica specialist label FONAL. Their second album! You'll be floored by the sparkling, mysterious sound full of forward momentum, generated by cheap organ, analog synths, drums, etc. And here's the amazing part about this record: shine the dedicated strobe light on it (the Mystical Shogun Kunitoki Strobe Light) and it turns into an animation! Video link below. Who knew vinyl could have this kind of added value! (Unfortunately the strobe light is sold separately. Try ordering from overseas via the label's website or http://www.tasankokaiku.com/shop/, or give it a shot at making your own!)
