Album Review: Bo Ningen - Line The Wall

Never groundbreaking or boring, this should more than sate any Japanophile punk rocker.

More Bo Ningen Bo Ningen Profile



Fuzzy as hell Japanese punk rockers Bo Ningen are finally having their second album released locally ahead of the foursome's Big Day Out shows. Line The Wall continues what the group started on their self-titled debut – a wild combo of chaotic mile-a-minute punk tunes mixed with more sludgy and improvised tracks. While they do nail both, it's gorgeous when they allow themselves space and time to explore the depths of their psych love. As a bonus, this edition comes with an excellent bonus track featuring Savages' Jehnny Beth on vocals. Never groundbreaking or boring, this should more than sate any Japanophile punk rocker.
