Originally released as a picture disc in 1986, this is D-Day's first LP, presenting a beautiful mix of minimal synth, new wave, and bossa nova. The band was formed in October 1982 and became well-known in the Japanese indie scene. They spent over 200 hours in the studio for recording. At that time, even for major label bands, it didn't take that much time to record an album. However, as D-DAY was not a major label band, they were free to craft their own narrative. Thus, they had a lot of time to experiment with their dreamy melodies, whisper-like vocals, programmed beats, and swirling guitars. A unique album!

Emociones Clandestinas is one of the first and most important punk bands to come out of Chile. They became well-known with the great album Abajo En La Costanera (1987), but these are the 1986 recordings, featuring their first vocalist Carmen Gloria, and it's much more punk!

Led by one of the most important figures in Peruvian punk, Maria T-Ta y El Empujon Brutal recorded a few songs in 1987 with a raw, fascinating and primitive aesthetic that could only have originated from the "subterraneos" of South America. In a scene predominantly dominated by men, Maria T-Ta was a spokeswoman against sexism and the system. Ironic, political, fun, catchy and super punk, even in the three acoustic bonus songs.

Reissue, originally released in 1982. Formed in 1981 in Tokyo, Saboten was an all-girl-Erik Satie-obsessed-post-punk band. This album was recorded in 1982 at the legendary Studio Dig and is the first time the LP has been reissued in its original format. Remastered from the original master tapes with two bonus tracks from the same session. This reissue has the original artwork, extended with a gatefold cover and an extra A2 poster with lyrics, liner notes, photos, and amazing artwork by the singer and guitarist Satomi Matsumot. Saboten is featured on the cult compilations Huddle No Trouble (1984) and Welcome To Dreamland (1985). "Absolute masterpiece of minimal, Satie-influenced post-punk. No other group sounds like Saboten." "Saboten means 'cactus' and, like their namesake, they are spiky and yet oddly beautiful."
"Of the many things one could say of Saboten it is their impeccable sense of lyricism and melody that make them truly great. They were a female band unlike any other in the world. Part contemporary music, part rock, theirs is a high form of pop music. When all is said and done, they are a wonderful band, and one of only a handful that will forever remain in the collective musical consciousness." --Shunji Tsutaki

No Me Puedo Controlar, the only Syntoma LP, released in 1983 by the independent labels Corporación Sintética and Trópico Digital, combined the benefits and atrocities of speculative science fiction with dystopian opera that opened the doors to new formulas for understanding the progress of human degradation. Where some used technology to destroy and conquer, others to create and unify.
