One of the first punk-albums I've
purchased so far this year is this debut LP of Japan's Kafka. The A
side consists of the tracks from their tape released last year. Some
will might complain about that they've already heard those songs
before, but I'm pretty sure they are re-recorded, and of course
hearing them on black wax (or blue if you got the limited one...) is
a completely different story. It sounds way better compared to the
tape.
When listening to the B-side, which
offers some brand new songs, I get the feeling that they have stepped
things up a bit. Can't put my finger on exactly what it is that makes
the new songs stand out really, they just feel more straight to the
point, focused, well targeted and simply better. If you're looking
for some traditional Scandinavian hardcore done the Japanese way,
look no further than Kafka! 7.5/10
