grimm grimm: kazega fuitara sayonara/tell the truth

Entrancing debut release on a label run by Charlotte Marionneau from Le Volume Courbe and My Bloody Valentine's Kevin Shields. Minimal, hook-strewn space-folk by Koichi Yamanoha -- from cult psych-punks Screaming Tea Party, with contributions from LVC, members of Chrome Hoof, and fellow Japanese ex-pats Bo Ningen -- mixing together the harsh, melancholic beauty of Nico, Green World ambience, the tunefulness of classic pop, and the otherworldliness of Joe Meek. Lovely stuff.
