about

あのサカナクション山口一郎もフェイバリットに挙げている、名古屋のエレクトロニック・インストゥルメンタルバンド「ALL OF THE WORLD」。そのオリジナルメンバーの大島・丹羽・鬼頭が在籍していた前身バンドで、もはや伝説的とも言えるLo-Fiスリーピース「Helicopter」のベスト音源がGalaxy Trainからカセット/配信で突如リリース。

Lou BarlowやHalf Japanese等、90年代初頭に吹き荒れたUS Lo-Fiムーブメントに対する名古屋からの回答 と佐々木敦からも絶賛された知る人ぞ知るオーパーツが約20年の時を経て発掘された。

93年から99年の活動期間に残した膨大な宅録テープの中から選ばれた全11曲(+ボーナストラック4曲)は、高校生だったという結成当初の鬱屈したスカム/ジャンクな性春一発録りから、後のALL OF THE WORLDのプロトタイプとも言えるメロディアスなポストロック的アプローチまで。まさに時代を先取りしたこれらの飽くなき実験精神と諧謔的センスは現代のシーンにもきっと通用するであろう。

【English】
Nagoya's electronic instrumental band "ALL OF THE WORLD". Mr. Ichiro Yamaguchi (Sakanaction) said that he loves them. The legendary trio "Helicopter" was a band whose members had been active before the "ALL OF THE WORLD". Their tracks will release from the Galaxy Train.

A famous critic Mr. Atsushi Sasaki said, "Helicopter is an answer from Nagoya to the US Lo-Fi movement in the early 90s such as Lou Barlow and Half Japanese."

All these 11 tracks (+4 bonus tracks) were chosen from the huge number of home-recording-tapes left in their activity period from 1993 to 1999. It consists of fresh scum/junk sounds by their high school days, and melodic post-rock style sounds that can be said as prototypes of the "ALL OF THE WORLD". These experimental spirit and humor sense that anticipated the era will surely apply also to the present music scene.
