Description

Live recordings from Rome, Italy in 1984!

Friction is one of the first Japanese punk bands, formed by Reck, Chiko Hige, and Lapis in Tokyo in March 1978. The band is still active today. Reck and Chiko Hige had previously been on the NY no wave scene as founding members of James Chance and the Contortions, bringing back their experience and influence to the Japanese music scene. It's no exaggeration to say that the band laid the foundation for alternative music in Japan. P-VINE is proud to reissue all of their albums on vinyl.
