Oftern regarded as the first hardcore compilation from Japan "Outsider" is in fact half hardcore, since the B-side is more on the classic punk and goth style. Starting from that, you can find Mastervation, Fullx, Route 66 and Madame Edwarda, sticking to the more classic punk rock formula of the late 70's/early 80's, with a wave/dark twist. Going back to the first side, it's what the real deal is about. This side features G.I.S.M., The Comes, Laughing Nose and Gauze and that tells everything about it. They deliver a total of fourteen songs combined of raging furious Japanese hardcore the old school way, unleashed by some of the most legendary band EVER. This compilation is a pillar of the whole scene and an absolute must have for any true fan of Japanese hardcore. Excellent copy!!!!
