パンク/ダダイズムのモチーフを叩き付ける冒頭の今井寿ヴォーカル曲から快哉を上げたくなった! 旧知のマニピュレーター/プログラマーを複数招いてエレクトロックな仕様となった新作だが、背徳的かつ挑発的な暗黒世界はどの曲にもしっかり通底。2本のアコギによる掛け合いが淫靡な仮面劇を演じる“masQue”、レトロ・ポップな“ボードレールで眠れない”、トロピカル(!)に弾ける“SURVIVAL DANCE”など新味も多々。
[English Translation]
BUCK-TICK "Arui wa Anarchy (meaning Or Anarchy)"
With a career spanning decades, the rock/experimental legendary BUCK-TICK's latest release opens with an exciting 1st track featuring the vocals of Hisashi Imai (guitar) utterly beyond conventional punk/Dadaisme motif that makes me almost howl with joy! Supported by good old fellow manipulators/programmers the new piece sounds basically electrock while the famous immoral, provocative, dark underworld still lies underneath the whole.The album offers various interesting new trials including "masQue" (racy masQuerade with two acoustic guitars), a retro-pop "Baudelaire de Nemurenai (meaning Baudelaire Keeps Me Awake)", "SURVIVAL DANCE" (pleasantly tropical!) and so on.
