I first became aware of them after hearing a track from their Chain Of Tragedy EP which I found on a blog around that time. Because that was the only EP of theirs I was aware of, I thought they only had one EP. I found this 7" at the Notting Hill record exchange, which I remember thanks to keeping the sticker on the plastic shealth which someone lovingly wrote the correct kanji on.

I'm glad I kept that, otherwise I would have mixed this up with finding a copy of Slang's Sapporo City Hardcore 7" in a shop in Tilburg one year when Roadburn happened to coincide with Record Store Day. I didn't realise that this was a different EP until after roughly ten years of having it in my collection when I finally noticed that this had different artwork and song titles to the one that I had downloaded.
