Some days ago a friend of mine sent me an email saying : "post japanese hardcore. We're thirsty". As i searching the blog i found out that i have not post anything from the land of the rising sun for a month or so. Blowback is my gift to the japan-addicts that keeps on coming on this blog.
Hailing from niigata city (west coast of honshu), these skinny-body maniacs delivers the goods. High octane straight-forward hardcore punk with a lot of 70's rock influences as any punk band from japan that respects itself would have...
In my mind i always have some "splits" if tou know what i mean, so i have for japanese hardcore. On the one side bastard, crude and forward and on the other side assault, muga and blowback. Not that is a two "speed" situation thing, that the first one are better than the second. I don't know, maybe it's just a chronological seperation... I assure you : this fuckers are a blast.
Here we have blowback's ep "remember one self" from 2002 - propably my favourite blowback's release till now. Four awesome tracks that gonna make you paint your head with yellow henna, tear apart your t-shirt (before tear off your genitals) and make a whole-body dragon tatto...
Also, we have the 2005 ep "crazy attacker" that have been released only as a cd if i'm not mistaken... Very good japanese hardcore with one of the best vocalists of the already mentioned scene. Both records have been released from HG : fact records.
Every winter blowback is making a tour called Gokukan with their fellas Mustang. Also they have toured usa with tragedy back in 2006 (check the video).
Awesome band, awesome music. Enjoy..
I know that you already love these freaks...
(once again i have stolen some infos from mountza 4 fanzine - the column about japanese scene written by the burial guys totally kicks ass. Chears to them)
Dedicated to alex who keep on asking for good japanese, rock influeced hardcore punk. Cheers, man.
Never bow down your head

so, you mean to tell me since we have our differences that we cant remain blogging pals? You actually took down my link? Wow. Please write back. Im curious about this one.
Sean, hello.
Yes, this morning after some days of serious thinking I finally took the decision to remove your link. I won’t be in the way to say how great job you’re doing with your blog because I think that is not the point.
And it’s not that I’m playing the hard-man attitude.
But for me is very important that you posted a nationalist band, it’s not the music. Punk, hardcore, crust or even black metal are been playing by people and for me by music you express your feelings or/and your political views. As a person that is a part of the antifascist/ anarchist movement I have a political view on this subject. You may not know but in Europe – in real life – the nazi movement growing bigger and bigger and I think we must do everything necessary to stop it from the non-posting of their views, music etc..(example : the singer of Sandinista was murdered by fascists in Russia and this is not just musical). You have been so ironic (or your friend to be more specific) saying all that stuff about “patronized by bleeding heart liberals” it’s so sad, I can’t find any other word.
For me this “bloggin pals” thing just does not exist…
It’s about real life, political views, opinions and actions in general. From having fun with music till… but posting neo-nazi shit and saying that I am fucked up ‘coz I asked you to remove it is no fun at all. Yeah, maybe I’m the fascist you mentioned, who knows?
And as dbill said : “National Socialism IS in fact a political theory based on racism...'those who are not ''pure-blooded'' like us, the ''white race'' should be sent out of ''our'' borders, or be slaughtered, for they are inferior'.” So I can not understand why a person in the hardcore punk stuff would like to post nazi black metal. But then it’s maybe just the music, or maybe not?
For those that may not understand check this out to have your opinion :

-mikxxx, the true fascist
Mikxxx,
I never called you a fascist. In fact I respect your beliefs. But I dont take stuff down because I put it up for these conversations. To talk about their merits and such. Thats all, no more. In fact I didnt even know they were NSBM til ya told me, I had to look up what Hakenkruez even meant.
What my friend says is from him.
Anyway, Ill be in Athens on May 14th for a few days. Would you care to get together so maybe we can talk more/get a drink??
Cheers
