THE REVIEW

Invitation to Chaos Number 2.

They already made us pay (with the debut).

A shard of anarchy in complete ordinariness. "The Half Japanese," famous for the cover "Tangled Up In Blue" by the guru Dylan, can relax on the obsessive idea of what new to propose. This, indeed, is the question to ask after a flash like the first work. The zenith of an expression, or more bluntly, of a project.

The blindest noise has never been so creative.

Minds literally thrown into the psyche molded by the desire to disobey.

They won’t have it.

Evading the concept of normality to give a signal, even far too evident, of overturning some position. Implacable anxious confession of the delirious Fair brotherhood. Two astonished eyes in front of the rainbow of sociality.

Being strange is the happiness of always being discarded.

One goes down to the garage, posters of Che Guevara, Devo, and Barbra Streisand. One plays with limits, sublime bursts and laughs at the thought of being the Fugs of the neighborhood.

A surrealist dada draft. "The Scream of Munch" of noise/lo fi

Half Japanese

Half Japanese is an American art‑punk/lo‑fi band formed by brothers Jad and David Fair in 1975 in Uniontown, Maryland. Their triple debut 1/2 Gentlemen Not Beasts (1980) and DIY approach helped define lo‑fi, indie, and noise rock. Later releases (including Fire Records era) added melodic angles while retaining their eccentric bite.
