Tori/Neji

Nisennenmondai means ''Year 2000 Problem'' and it is an instrumental Japanese girl trio from Tokyo.The visits to Tokyo by Lightning Bolt, Battles & No Age and others have unearthed these three girls with their mammoth sound. With song titles such as 'This Heat', 'Sonic Youth' & 'Pop Group', one understand which musical territory the band comes from, and if you add Black Flag, DNA, Neu! & Pere Ubu you are pretty close to Nisennenmondais sound. It's raw & repetitive (post) punk instrumentals, at the same time as they are wild groovy with a no wave/disco vibe to it. This is the first release outside of Japan & it contains the bands two EPs ''Neji'' and ''Tori'' released as one album with new cover design by Kim Hiorthoy.
