 | | Description: | Reissue of this 1986 album from the Japanese hardcore punk band. LIP CREAM's first full-length album, 'KILL UGLY POP,' is a work that can be called epoch-making in Japan's hardcore/punk scene. The Japanese hardcore movement that emerged between 1980 and 1981 was characterized by fashion such as Trojan and spiky hair with studded jackets, and the sound was also heavily influenced by UK hardcore. However, LIP CREAM The band incorporated American hardcore into their sound, and created a uniquely Japanese-hardcore niche that was still unfamiliar to most Japanese listeners at the time. 'KILL UGLY POP' marks the era of LIP CREAM that presented a new genre style that has since evolved uniquely in Japan. For this RELAPSE release, 'KILL UGLY POP' features digitally remastered audio, preserving the band's raw intensity.

Capturing the band's abrasive guitars, breakneck tempos, and throat-shredding vocals, this release channels the intensity of the '80s underground into a concentrated blast of energy. The production remains deliberately rough-edged, preserving the immediacy of a band that built its reputation in sweaty clubs, DIY spaces and on cult tapes traded among dedicated fans of extreme music.
