Sadie Sads | ペアー・ドッグ [Pair Dog] 6. G-Schmitt | カソリック [Catholic] 7. Madame Edwarda | ロウ [Low] 8. Auto-Mod | ワォンダリング・チャイルド [Wandering Child] If you want a solid entry point into the world of Japanese goth and deathrock, this compilation should be your first stop (after Phaidia, of course). These 4 bands helped definite the Japanese goth sound, and cover the full range from more tame new-wavey to sheet metal banging and snarling. Ripped from my personal copy that I got in Osaka when I was there for cancelfest 2024.
