Slinger 「微笑の季節」

Slinger 『沈黙が飛んでいる』 CD (SSE Communications, 1998)

OK, this is another one I really know nothing about, other than they were the duo of Kazuki Futuba on bass and Masaaki Niizeki on everything else. As far as I know, this was their only release. Why do I have it, then? Well, it's on SSE Communications, my favorite label! I decided a while back that I wanted everything on SSE (and its earlier incarnation as Transrecords). I searched for this one on-line, and ended up getting it (and many other SSE releases) via Yahoo! Japan Auctions at a price that made the risk worth it. Today's song is the noisiest on the CD, which is rather an odd mix of fairly mainstream J-rock with lil' bits o' throb and aggression. Enjoy! Translations: 微笑の季節 = Seasonal Smile 沈黙が飛んでいる = Flying Silence Slinger = one who slings
