I love these two bands that were birthed out of the Boredoms camp, Yoshimi's OOIOO and Seiichi Yamamoto's psych/trance
band
Rovo,
OOIOO has gotten better it seems with every release, or at least she started out as more of a electronic/junk rock outfit sort like a feminine version of the Boredoms early sound, but each album she experimented more with krauty-psychedelia and deep rich textures of sound and rhythm, now OOIOO is just a powerhouse entity all of its own!
Rovo has always been a consistent Trance/Rhythm machine ever since their first release "Pico!" conscious heightening stuff man, this music just soars out of the stratosphere and doesn't come back!, (they also share a member with Bondage Fruit violinist Yuji Katsui) what sucks is the only thing I own from them is the Tonic 2001 2CD on Tzadik records, all the rest I have are just DLs, it would seem the only place to buy their CDs is out of Japan and the price is way to high from my blood in this current economy, if anyone knows a place stateside where I can buy these I'd definitely like to know!
