Doom - No More Pain (Full Album 1987)

At the same time as Voivod was bending minds with Killing Technology, Doom was forging their own brand of metal, and as is almost always the case with Japan, a little stranger. Also from 1987, No More Pain is a tithe punk-ier, like Voivod's earlier efforts, but, featuring stellar musicianship from all involved (Koh Morota ranks among the greatest metal bassists, of that time or any other,) perhaps also more experimental and psychedelic at the same time. They are excellent companion pieces. This is the LP track listing with eight songs, but is taken from the Complete Explosionworks Session 2CD reissue. The LP tracks have been remastered. Musicians: Takashi Fujita - vocals, guitars Jyoichi Hirokawa - drums Koh Morota (R.I.P.) - fretless bass Tracklist: 1. Death to Wimp! 0:00 2. Body No Body 5:13 3. I'm Your Junky Doll 10:30 4.
