MUNEHIRO NARITA 'Psyche De Loid' LP (Spain, New Records, Catalogue #NRC002) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited year 2016 New Records label edition of MONSTER FUZZ/WAH-WAH PSYCH GUITAR PSYCHEDELIC ROCK COVERS SESSION BLOWOUT LP by High Rise psycho-guitar destructor Munehiro Narita (originally issued as a CD-only release in 2014 in Japan on the U-Rythmix Records label.)
(NOTE: LIMITED VINYL EDITION!)
'Munehiro Narita, the original "psychedelic speed freak," is for many people the undisputed king of acid-fuzz guitar. Active since the late '70s, Narita is a Japanese psychedelic underground legend. After playing in cult bands like Kyoaku no Intention, he founded the brutal heavy-psych power trio High Rise in the '80s. His furious guitar playing, which involves lethal doses of fuzz-wah at earsplitting volume, can also be heard on his current band Green Flames (featuring Mitsuru Tabata from Acid Mothers Temple). In 2014 Narita released a Japanese-only CD titled Psyche De Loid, doing heavy guitar fuzzed-out covers of classic psych songs from the '60s/'70s. But Psyche De Loid was also the first-ever psychedelic album recorded using Vocaloid technology. Very popular in Japan, Vocaloid is a software/singing synthesizer -- one enters the lyrics of a song into the program and adds music to generate a Vocaloid -- or "Vocal Android" -- which sing in bizarre, mostly female, android-type vocals. Vocaloid is often associated with J-pop but on Psyche De Loid Narita smashes this genre into a wall with the contrast of killer, Ron Asheton-like piercing fuzz-wah guitar and child-like android vocals, featuring surreal covers of tracks by The Stooges, Hendrix, Blue Cheer, Shocking Blue, Pink Floyd, MC5, Jefferson Airplane. . . . Previously available as a Japanese-only CD, this is the first-ever vinyl edition with new artwork.'
- First vinyl edition of Psyche De Loid by Munehiro Narita (High Rise), featuring surreal covers of classic psych songs from the '60s/'70s with killer, piercing fuzz-wah guitar and bizarre software-generated vocals.
- Includes covers of The Stooges, Hendrix, Blue Cheer, Shocking Blue, Pink Floyd, MC5, Jefferson Airplane. . . .
- Originally released in 2014 as a Japanese-only CD; this edition features new artwork.
- "One of the finest acid-punk shredders to ever walk the planet, Munehiro Narita gives these time-honored psych rock classics a serious kick in the ass, in the most bizarre and Japanese of musical settings" --Steve Krakow (Galactic Zoo)
- "Munehiro Narita (High Rise et al) bleeds all over a series of massively re-wired cover versions of classic psych while computer generated little girl vocals relocate the whole damn thing in another future altogether." --David Keenan (The Wire, Volcanic Tongue)
