Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2006-05-17
Experimental collage, mishmash, found objects, electronics, toy instruments, vocalizations. Local Japanese expatriates by way of Seattle, met in art school and its sure does sound like it. Interesting stuff in an academic sense but a cliché pretentious listen. I’d love to see their apartments/warehouse space.

1) electronoise mishmash with toys, voices, the kitchen sink
2) simple childlike song with piano, guitar, trash percussion
3) heavy on the toy instruments, whiny vocalization, anti-singing
4) treated instruments, sparse, toy instrument collage
5) childlike song, piano playing, with treatments and burst of percussion, electronics
6) sparse, heavy on the chimes, offkey toy guitar, electro bursts
7) primitive strumming, almost noise-song’like
8) offkey dissonant guitar, minimal with electro tones etc
9) obligatory screaming wacky full-on japanoise crazy piece
10) dissonant guitar, anti-played, anti-vocals
