Sadaharu, Anthem for New Sonic Warfare (CI)
The majority of bands in our 21st century -- regardless if they happen to be mainstream or independent, heavy or soft, popular or forgotten -- seemingly miss a key element in music: to be truly noteworthy and prolific you must balance both action and theory. Thankfully, Sadaharu seamlessly blend the two aforementioned essential musical components to give the listener not
only a lesson in sound with their jazz-riddled hardcore garage sound, but also in philosophy. Anthem for New Sonic Warfare reinforces the fact that we must band together in order to overturn the trite and typical images and sounds that are burned into our retinas and crammed down our ears. I can only hope this album will ignite the cultural revolution it so pointedly aims at.
