• INCAPACITANTS - 'Default Standard' 2 x LP

Originally released in 1999 on CD (Alchemy Records), "Default Standard" is a testament to Incapacitants' relentless pursuit of pure noise. A sonic landscape marked by tumultuous chaos, the album incorporates feedback, distortion, electronic manipulations, dissonant tones, unconventional time signatures, and unpredictable arrangements.

The goal of Incapacitants (Toshiji Mikawa of Hijokaidan, and former C.C.C.C. member Fumio Kosakai) is to elicit emotional and visceral responses from the listener, challenging preconceived notions of what music can be.

This meticulously curated double-vinyl reissue is an immersive journey through an archive of captivating visuals and insightful texts. Ltd x 199 copies including a large poster, inserts featuring unpublished photos by Yuichi Jibiki, a four-page A3 folded insert with previously unpublished photos and extensive notes from Toshiji Mikawa and Lasse Marhaug (who was also in charge of remastering), alongside a 1999 interview translated into English, from Japanese music magazine EATER.
