about

KENDO NAGASAKI ready the release of their ferocious debut album,
HURT, DECIDE, CONSPIRE!

For their debut album, drums/trombone/drums noise trio KENDO NAGASAKI bring us 11 tracks of improvised industrial noise, scattered drums & distortion drenched trombone riffs - all recorded live.

BBC 6music's Gideon Coe said:
"...Kendo Nagasaki, who comprise - and I hope you noticed - double drums and trombone. That's it. To great effect. An excellent record, I think".

Kendo Nagasaki only ever record live. No overdubs. No pissing about. Just live, in the moment slabs of Class-A skronk.

Kendo Nagasaki are two drummers and a deranged trombonist with a pedal board the size of a small provincial town - creating blistering and bedazzling motorik soundscapes and improvisations that spring to mind the sounds of Soft Machine, Lightning Bolt, Boredoms, Parts & Labor, Sonic Youth, Benefits and The Comet Is Coming via a Marshall stack turned up to 11.

Previous releases have been with the Polytechnic Youth and Die Das Der labels, and they have been championed by Messrs Coe, Ravenscroft and Maconie. It's crazy, it's captivating and it's brilliant.

Praise for Kendo Nagasaki:

“An exhilarating blast of wonk and skronk. Rhythmic and immediate, they hit the sweet spot between engaging and unpredictable.” - Echoes & Dust

“Fantastic stuff” - Stuart Maconie BBC 6 Music

“Darn fine!” - The Shend

“A mushrooming mothership of psyched surf brain dissolves, hypno-grooving mesmerics and hot wiring fringe frazzling freak storms, features solar fried trombones, I kid you not, file under Meek-esque dragster psych kosmick pill trip.” – Losing Today

“"I've got to be honest, at first I didn't get it. On the second time, I absolutely loved it.” - BBC Introducing

Live, Kendo Nagasaki have so far supported:
Deerhoof , Bruxa Maria, Irma Vep, MoE, The Unit Ama, Rainbow Grave, Frauds, Table Scraps, and plenty more – each time dealing a knockout blow.

Great record. wears it's influences proudly ..but retains a sliver of identity that is uniquely British and has a northern feel to it..I think that these geographic musical vignettes are realy evocotive of northern Newtown Uber estates and satellite communities..I hope this translates to a wider audience for him...he deserves the attention. give him his due .NOW . christopherogley

This is very close to what I heard/felt everytime we visited the grandparents in Runcorn. Ominous dread. Bleak dystopia. Concrete and terraced houses. Plus the air smells! MonkeyMajiks
