Description
Cut in Osaka in 1986, Pretty Little Baka Guy finds Shonen Knife sharpening their bubblegum-punk to a candy-razor edge. The tom run in Kappa Ex is pure joy, a tumbling lead-in to choruses that land with a grin. Antonio Baka Guy sprints past on trebly downstrokes and quick, cheeky fills. Devil House leans a touch darker without losing the sugar rush that makes this era so addictive.
This LP pressing opens the space around the fuzz and the low end sits deeper, so the trio’s tight lines don’t blur when the tempos jump. File it beside the Ramones on the punk-pop shelf, but expect a brighter, quirkier tilt and that unmistakable Osaka DIY charm. Works just as well for a Saturday tidy in a Melbourne sharehouse as it does for a late drive.
If you’d rather order online, you can buy Shonen Knife records online with us. Mid-80s indie energy runs throughout, yet the hooks are pure power-pop, which is why it bridges scenes so easily. We shelve it where the riffs meet the smiles, and it tends to walk back to the counter on its own. It’s the kind of record you flip and replay without thinking, because the songs finish before you’re ready to let go.
Perfect for anyone building a record collection, buy online or in store today.
