The artwork features illustrations by Puzu Huang, a new-wave artist from Taipei.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKIDDER’s lineup consists of TANABE (Vo., Gt.) from My Society Pissed, ex-Malegoat, and ex-LIPUPS; EDA (Gt.) from threadyarn and THE GHAN; MARU (Dr.) from Nogio Angel \u0026amp; The Ska’nPin Bon-Bon’s, ex-your pest band, and ex-flower zombies; and YASUKO (Ba.) from ex-LIPUPS. Their psychedelic and bizarre post-punk\/hardcore sound is built on an exquisite balance. On their second release, the band’s ensemble and sound production have taken on a clearer direction, while the B-side of the cassette features more mature and artistic tracks—yet it still leaves you feeling there’s plenty of room for the next stage.\u003cbr\u003eThey resonate with bands like The Cure, Q And Not U, Antelope, Built To Spill, Deerhoof, 6eyes, and Panicsmile, as well as recent Japanese alternative bands such as Power, Texas 3000, Dubia 80000cc, and Sugar House!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[tracklist]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e01. 2nd Portion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e02.
