Japanese Independent Music
(SONORE, SON-11, BOOK+CD 2001)
"The fullest picture available of Japan's explosively radical underground musical scene. This book is a comprehensive report on the exuberant activity of the Japanese independent scene at the end of the twentieth century. Structured like a dictionary with an historical introduction, it offers a vision of more than 600 artists from musical streams as varied as: electro, harsh-noise, avant-rock, free-jazz. Comes with a CD of rare and previously unreleased tracks from: Keiji Haino, Yuko Nexus6, Acid Mothers Temple, Ruins, KK Null, Sachiko M, Hoppy Kamiyama, etc."
I've got it, it's pretty good.
