I was really waiting for this one! Part of legendary indies label Nagomu's re-issue series, Zin-say!'s turn has finally come! Zin-say! was a pre-Denki Groove unit featuring Ishino Takkyū, Pierre Taki and friends. The concept involved simple new wave melodies, very silly, often repetitive lyrics, as well as costumes and make-up and ridiculous dances.
The release, selected by Ishino Takkyū et al., will contain remasters of Zin-say!'s greatest hits, as well as maybe some previously unreleased tracks. Stay tuned!
If you're a Zin-say! or Nagomu fan, you know this is an essential. Denki Groove fans who aren't afraid to jump into the past should also definitely check this out.
