Mad Capsule Markets: Cistm Konfliqt
Considering the fact that they are huge in their native Japan with more than nine albums in their back catalogue and have a deranged, upbeat sound that quite frankly has to be heard to believed, the Mad Capsule Markets have so far not managed to break into the UK music industry. So what exactly does their latest LP sound like? Good question. Imagine the electronic bleeps and squeals of recent Primal Scream, Prodigy dance beats and the unashamedly joyous riot of the likes of Less Than Jake backed up by a solid wall of distorted guitars and samples and you’re halfway there. In short, the Mad Capsule Markets combine punk, metal, funk and electronica in an utterly unique way.
