Yuka Ijichi - Peanuts Butter




One needs merely to gaze at the cover art and listen to the first chords to find himself floating through space alongside fish bones and clew balls (a kitty's dream!!). The high, airy and buoyant voice offered by psych-folk artist Yuka Ijichi (occasionally accompanied by the more subtle vocals of Hiiragi Fukuda) invites us to a dreamy land of folky and spacey guitars. Doronco, ex-bassist from the Japanese noise rock band Les Rallizes Dénudés, has allowed himself to switch his famous biting guitar for a more jaunty acoustic twee sound. 
Recorded on tape, this original combination of gentle echoes sung in an exotic language makes this a perfect album to listen in dim light.
