Fuck this album is awesome! Loads of noisey shoegaze experimentation on this one. Loads of interesting rhythms and beautiful vocals.

Thanks Derek, all the best music in the world comes from Japan, can't wait to hear this!

Ohhhh you'll love it I think!

Wheeeee!

aaaah great. I hope it sounds how it looks to me. thaaaaaanks

Every track on the album offers something different so I'm confident there's something in there for everyone to enjoy!

Insane band! Thanks Derek. As usual for Japanese rock bands, there is 1) brilliant forward-thinking production (but not overproduced), 2) AMAZING riff after AMAZING riff, 3) insane musical complexity that seems effortless and isn't wanky at all, 4) tons and tons of creativity and brilliance in every track.

Half way thorugh the album and it's already one of the best I've heard all year.

^^sounds what I would have said after listening the first time to melt banana

Thanks, I'm forward-thinking to listen to this.

I'm going to buy Hanazono!,cheers.

thank you for that

man I love that record!!!!
where can I buy it???? lovely cover

Been bumping this for a few days now, thanks again Derek. Instrumentally, they remind me of a less stripped down Gaji... a Gaji with Mass of the Fermenting Dregs production (occasional big walls of guitar). Great stuff.

DEREK!

Get this yolz in the sky album:

it's pretty similar in places but I like it better... a lot darker!

Just thought I would let you know that there is a good chance that Hyacca will be playing some gigs in North America next year. It looks like they will be on one of the Next Music From Tokyo!!! tours.

There will be two NMFT tours next year. One in May and one in October. The members of Hyacca probably can't get time off work to join the May tour, however, they will probably be on the October tour with Midori and perhaps nisennenmondai and The Mornings.

That would be a must-see gig.

Hyacca are playing Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver in a week and a half.
