Complete discography from this obscure Japanese hardcore band from Sendai, Japan who were around from ‘82 to ‘86. Two cassettes, single, and a flexi, all of which are here. For me, the flexi is the most crucial with its Discharge stylings and d-beat attack. The single slows things down and has some phaser guitar and shit and almost Burning Spirits-type yelped vocals. The cassettes are a little rough, as expected, but see the band head into faster, noisier territory... less Discharge and more Gauze.
Sendai 80's hardcore was infused with thick, passionate energy. It's not the fierceness or rage of the American bands, but this is what happens when Japanese people do it.
Disarray members went on to be in POGO, Ryders, Laughin' Nose and Cocobat, who were active on the fringes of hardcore but just a step away from it.
This album contains two singles released by ADK and CHICKEN SHIT, as well as two hard to find self-produced cassettes.
