[Spacepig]

Japanese "adrenalized math rock sped up and given pop's candy coating" according to Wiki, mmm, the mind boggles. 6 albums and whole barrowload of singles and EPs to choose from, so let's see what you can find.

Nominations t be in by 10 pm Sunday evening please, leave a link to your nom, and try to get back next week for the voting.

Happy hunting!

Just a comment. Quite a few YouTube vids have only Japanese titles, but you should be able to run them through a translator for an English title if you wish.

7 voters for the 6 noms, and it looks like Tim has won at least two new fans for Tricot, I just wonder if those new fans have checked the price of Tricot CDs on Amazon though.

Apart from winning some new admirers, Tim has also won his own gold medal, his nom, Explosive Pannier-San ran away with it scoring an impressive 14 points. Sharing the silver on 7 points, Melon Soda nominated by Val and Spacepig's nom, Inside. And there's a bronze for new fan TheFoe, Ochansensu-su finished on 6 points.

No wooden spoons this week.

😎 Yeah, zon prices are bonkers. Somewhere like cdjapan.co.jp or the old standby discogs might be better.

Their album '3' is available on Bandcamp as a download at a reasonable price:
https://topshelfrecords.bandcamp.com/...
and their EP 'Bakuretsu tricot San' is on Amazon as a download also:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07JDN15B...
CDs and vinyl are rather expensive from any source. You're paying the price of the CD again in delivery costs.
