music-wise Nippon's ICONOCLAST are a D-BEAT monster but lyric-wise they are a joke which makes it impossible for me to take them serious. really, why would anybody write lyrics in a language he doesn't know properly? even the spelling is horrible! however the music is powerful and they know how to handle their instruments.

ReplyDeletei like the lyrics, they are par with dis bands even with people who speak enlish as a first language. its not groundbreaking but they do mean something.

you're welcome!
ReplyDeleteabout the lyrics: in this case it's more like they COULD mean something or anything or nothing...
You need to read Brainstorm lyrics off Battle of disarm/Brainstorm split lp,now thats fucked up :D
ReplyDeleteI think sometimes Japanese bands use English as sort of a cop-out--most of their listeners doesn't know the language either and therefore can't tell if the lyrics suck or not.
