A monumental work by the guerrilla music group Taco, fluidly organized by Gaseeta member Harumi Yamazaki, released in 1983 on Pinacoteca Records, is being reissued on LP for the first time on the joint Italian/Japanese publishing label Spittle Made In Japan!
The members of the group include Fuyuri Kudo, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Machizo Machida, Michiro Endo, Kaoru Sato, Banana Kawashima, Toshiharu Osato, Koji Ueno, Masashi Shinoda, G.I. Gurdjieff, Rika Kayama, and many more, This is the definitive anthology of the first album and 1984 live 12" EP by TACO (octopus, kite, fish eye, drunken man, bald head, etc.), an unorthodox group released in the Tokyo underground in the early 80s. With Harumi Yamazaki at the core, it documents an incidental act that blends new wave, noise, post-punk, improvisation, performance art, violence, and humor. Tangible and intangible impulses trigger impulses, and this is a sensational must-hear work inscribed in the history of underground music.
