about

This is an unreleased live recording of the dawn of Nishinihon’s. (Probably this is the memorable debut live!)

Nishinihon was formed by Tsuyama Atsushi, Ichiraku Yoshimitsu and Kawabata Makoto as "Old-Fashioned Art Rock Band in the end of this millennium" in 1999.
(Tsuyama was the bassist of Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O. in 1999 - 2015, also Ichiraku was the drummer in 2001.)
They released an album “If You Smell What Art Rock is Cookin! (アートロックの新鋭)” on CD from Gyuune Cassette in 2000, and on dbl LP from Static Caravan / Resonant reissued with a bonus track in 2002.

Track-2 and Track-3 are early versions of songs are included in 1st album, and these songs' names are different from studio versions.
Kawabata broke a guitar string on Track-1, that’s why no guitar on the middle of the song.

This digital live album was released only for Bandcamp.
