“THE LEGEND OF KANSAI HC”: a tell-all book about Kansai's underground

Italian metal and punk label F.O.A.D. Records is releasing the book “THE LEGEND OF KANSAI HC”, previously published only in Japanese and now finally translated into English. It's an incredible journey through the depths of the Kansai underground scene written by none other than ISHIYA (DEATH SIDE, L・O・X).

Teaming up with him in the interviews is SHINTANI from RAPES, whose career stretches from the early days of the punk/vkei scene to the present. Packed with interviews, tons of interesting anecdotes and spiced up with rare pictures, this is the definitive work about that legendary scene, a true-to-the-bone, authentic punk report.

Bands included: ZOUO, S.O.B., OUTO, RAPES, WARHEAD, NIGHTMARE, MOBS, Charmy & Pon (LAUGHIN’ NOSE, NASHI) and more! All written in English, 172 pages, full color. The "diehard edition" includes a flexi disc with unreleased recordings from RAPES and ZOUO. Additional information and pre-orders are available now at this location.

I have the Japanese edition, it's great! The pictures alone are worth the price of the book!
