CAESAR, J.A. - Jashuman

This mighty soundtrack for Shuji Terayamas nihilistic movie of the same name contains all the elements necessary to reach J.A. Caesars intended pleasure-centers. Here, turmoil, mind-numbing repetition, abject misery and grisly partriarchs abound, and all orchestrated by Caesars damaged proto-metal and choral-led psychedelic sound. Mind-infesting in the truest sense, this soundtrack played in the dark is as certified a Gateway to the Underworld as any acknowledged classic by Faust, Magma, the Cosmic Jokers, Ash Ra Tempel or early Amon Düül. -Julian Cope, Japrocksampler Digitally remastered. Numbered, limited collectors edition housed in a gatefold sleeve.
