A weird find, a Korean heavy psych album from 1981 with wacky super fuzzy guitar sounds. It's kinda charming but in many ways an oddity like what the heck is heavy psych doing in Korea in the early 80s? It sounds more like what the Japanese were doing a bunch of years earlier but it sounds SO out of place and out of time. Even weirder is that it at least got two reissues and is valuable and hard to find on vinyl.

Apparently it's a legendary rock album in Korea by a frickin high school band who just recorded it to make a point for rock music and I kinda dig it, at the very least for its unique razorblade guitar sound and manic vocals.

Great fuzzzzz guitar with nice vocal.. true masterpiece in 80s psych rock.
