FRANK CHICKENS Ninja Legends 1983-1989 (Clamshell Box)

Popis:

• 4CD box set focusing on their 80s recordings. • Includes the well-known albums ‘We Are Frank Chickens’, ‘Get Chickenized’, ‘Club Monkey'. • Plus an additional compilation of BBC live sessions recorded for John Peel, Richard Skinner and Janice Long. Frank Chickens are a legendary Japanese punk pop performance group with a cult following in the UK. Started as a duo with Kazuko Hohki and Kazumi Taguchi, now the group has expanded to more than 20 members. Influenced by pop, punk, and traditional music particularly Japanese Minyo (folk songs), Okinawa music and Enka, Frank Chickens set out to deflate the myths separating East and West, and men and women, while showing the absurdity of the dual stereotype of Japanese women as submissive geisha or mysterious femme fatales. They were John Peel favourites, had an independent chart hit with ‘We Are Ninja’, won the Foster Comedy God Award in 2010, released five albums and toured worldwide. Recently they have become the power behind Ura Matsuri – the festival showcasing ESEA (East And South East Asian) artists in the UK.
