Released in 1997 by Alchemy Records [Japan]; the second in an Alchemy guitar compilation series. This one is females only, featuring three tracks by Hiroko Tanaka (Mady Gula Blue Heaven), five tracks by Miyu Uemura (Sekeiri), two tracks by Aya Ohnishi (Sekeiri), and one track by Mine Nakao (Angel'in Heavy Syrup). Contrary to what Alchemy's reputation and the album title might lead you to believe, this is not even remotely a "noise" album -- Hiroko's tracks are a bizarre mix of psychedelic hip-hop pop, Mine's track is not far removed from the vaguely folkish psychedelia of her regular band, and the rest of the contributions are somewhere in between.
Hiroko Tanaka -- Namida, Owari, Afro 24
Miyu Uemura -- Document, O France, Hi, Hi Hi, Yoru Wa....
Aya Ohnishi -- Kangaeru Renshu, Ma No Koku
Mine Nakao -- Gin No Fune
