Welcome to 2015! A bit of a slow start here, but I’m slowly ripping a lot of things I’ve acquired over the past few weeks, with plenty of great stuff to go around for a while. So with that in mind, thanks as always for visiting, and I hope to keep your ears happy in 2015.<\/p>\n

Despite the fact that the title of this post reads like a twisted self-help book, what we have here is an excellent and uncelebrated <\/em>post-punk\/goth 7” from Japan, released on Captain Records in 1985.\u00a0 I unearthed this gem at a record fair in Brooklyn, listening to only a few seconds of each track on what looked like a Fischer Price turntable, and immediately it ticked all the right boxes. Chorus-drenched bass, big guitar hooks, and driving, but melancholy melodies across three tracks. This is the last of three 7”s from this band, and from my understanding, this one leans more towards the goth side of the spectrum, while the first two appear to be more straightforward anthemic punk.<\/p>\n

This one should definitely appear to fans of Blitz, Christian Death, Lost Loved Ones, and any other driving and\/or big-minded goth bands. Here’s the info:<\/p>\n
