I knew from the first Album that they were good musicians, and the second Album confirmed they were BRILLIANT musicians. Totally original at the time, so much so that these tunes sound still vibrant and fresh today.
Japan's music has stood the test of time and it's still brilliant today as it was when first released ! BRILLIANT, thanks for sharing these gems with us ! : )
@hatmap Yep. Both "Adolescent Sex" and "Obscure Alternatives" are superbbbb. I love this track ... it's one of their very best. I love hearing it as continuity music in documentaries, or occasionally used as themes in progs. A criminally underrated band, as the man says.
I used to live in Catford and then lived in Berlin and I never saw these lot once!

What a great eerie song from a criminally underrated band. Adolescent Sex and Obscure Alternatives, their first two albums, should be rock classics.

Criminally underrated. Very well said. Almost sounds like a Japan song title.
