Vinyl-on-demand – VOD 170
VOD presents The Fifth Column Years by ICE 9. This double LP release contains 1981 and P.F.L.P. Ice 9 was a collective centered around Onnyk (Yoshiaki Kinno) a well-known on the field of Japan's underground and free improvisation, acted as 'The Fifth Column", also called 'Daigoretsu', in mid 70's to 80's.
Onnyk is Yoshiaki Kinno, a talented guitar improviser and also the owner of the Allelopathy label of Japan. In the 1980's he established a cassette label Fifth Column featuring a wide range of improvised musics.
The Fifth Column Years by Ice 9 compiles their two incredibly rare cassette releases 1981 & PFLP (from 1981 & 1983 respectively) on this double vinyl compilation, their first pressing on wax in their almost forty year existence. The brainchild of Japanese multi-instrumentalist Yoshiakki Kinno, the two tapes take strides in all things scuzzed out. Encompassing noise, post-punk, krautrock and abrasive jazz complimented with dubbed out early electronics and hefty distortion, The Fifth Column Years is a throwback trip into a wildly experimental epoch. Sure to be as sought after as the original tapes, the vinyl doesn’t lose the early editions charm.
