Half Japanese - Volume Four: 1997-2001

Facts The final volume of the four-part Half Japanese box set series "Volume 4: 1997-2001" - includes albums "Bone Head", "Heaven Sent" and "Hello". Showcasing a range of experimental pop smarts and noisy punk bite, these albums see the band surrounding Jad Fair's musings on subjects from hopeless mon-sters to hopeless romantics with everything from sharp melodies to 64 minute work outs, with a Primal Scream cover thrown in there for good measure. Fire's colossal Half Japanese series began in 2014 with the Record Store Day exclusive of 'Half Gentleman/Not Beasts', this year's RSD brings the release full circle with the last of the set.
