New Japan – Quiet Life – Half-Speed Remastered 180gram

Half-Speed remastered on 189gsm Vinyl – 3CD Including rare and previously unreleased material – 24 page book with exclusive liner notes and photography

With their third studio album ‘Quiet Life’, David Sylvian and Japan completed their transition from glammy punk naifs to sleek art-house pop stars. Containing a stylish take on The Velvet Underground’s ‘All Tomorrow’s Parties’, this new remastered reissue is a timely reminder of the power of an art-rock group who perhaps remain a bit underrated in the modern era.
