These crazy japanese glamsters! I have zero information about ANTISEPTIC. The 7″ was recorded at the very end of 1985 and released in early 1986.
All four tracks smoke and the band manages to add a little variation in its paradigmatic japanese sound: The first song “Visiöns öf Pöwer” has an obvious G.I.S.M. / Zouo stance, very apocalyptic and gigantic sounding, the second (my fave) blasts off with killer riffing and a bit of a Motörhead touch, the third one has Oi(nk) thrown in and is the weakest here. The last song miraculously blends everything from the other three in one hell of a scorcher.
Enjoy this three times daily. Your hardcore doctor.

Crazy indeed! Very very very great. Never heard of this band before. Japan had such a potent scene in the eighties!

so potent, in fact, if a woman were to come within 100 yards of a show, she would pop little hardcore babies out all over the place 9 months later.
another fine post, although not as earth-shattering as some of your other offerings from japan (namely that jisatsu comp., a total scorcher). that third track is not so bad, i was totally caught off guard by the very thin lizzy-esque guitar solo.
cheers! smo

You fuckers out there don’t like ANTISEPTIC. I dispise you.

Good band! I figured more people would know them since they’re on the first volume of the Order Of The Kite bootleg CDs.

This is going straight to the want list!
