Comments:

Japan Original Pressing.

Heavy Japanese progressive rock with King Crimson intensity, huge drums, twisted rhythms, and a killer percussion break. Dark, technical, psychedelic, and completely uncompromising.

Bikyoran’s 1982 debut is Japanese progressive rock at its most intense. “Double” explodes through heavy riffs, violent rhythmic changes and relentless drumming, while the 14-minute “Warning” moves from haunting violin and spacious passages into a wild percussion break and crushing full-band attack. King Crimson is the obvious reference point, but the strange Japanese atmosphere, raw dynamics and almost ritualistic rhythm make this something of its own. Prog collectors should already know it, but the drums alone make this a serious pick for break and leftfield groove diggers.

About the Condition

Grade	Description
S (Sealed)	Still sealed in factory wrap. Never played.

+ / − may be added to indicate slight variations (e.g. VG+, EX−).

We visually inspect every record, and we clean each one before shipping (play-testing when needed). Even new or great-looking vinyl—especially some Japanese pressings—can have light background noise. We grade carefully by eye and ear, but it’s still a human call, so please check the notes before buying.
