Les Rallizes Dénudés - White Waking
Best thing I’ve heard in a very long time.
From Wikipedia:
Les Rallizes Dénudés (裸のラリーズ, Hadaka no Rallizes) were an influential, yet reclusive Japanese avant-garde band. They originally began in 1962 as a musical theatre troupe, however the formation of the band was not until 1967. They are known for their ties to avant-garde theater groups (as typified by Shuji Terayama’s troupe) and leftist political groups, as well as for their feedback-drenched live shows. The band’s style is typified by simple, repeated bass lines, shrieking guitar feedback and folk arrangement.
In 1970, the original bass player Moriaki Wakabayashi assisted in the hijacking of Japan Airlines Flight 351 orchestrated by the Japanese Red Army.[1] Singer Takashi Mizutani was allegedly offered a role in the hijacking, but turned it down.
