Mizutama Shobodan - A Skyfull of Red Petals LP

Label: Spittle

Mixed by master Fred Frith and released in Japan in 1985 this is Mizutama Shōbōdan's sophomore album. Another dangerous ride with the fearless "Polka Dots Fire Brigade" and a further step into the Japanese dreamland. Contains printed inner sleeve and four-page fold-out insert.



"Mizutama Shōbōdan were a force of nature - powerful and original and unapologetic. I saw them live before I heard the first record and was very impressed. I liked the way the group interacted, it was a very good atmosphere between everybody. I really liked the contrasting sounds and styles of Kamura and Tenko, two very different kinds of voices that really worked well together." – Fred Frith
