Half Japanese - We Are They Who Ache with Amorous Love LP (RSD 2026 Yellow Vinyl)

RECORD STORE DAY 2026

Half Japanese's We Are They Who Ache with Amorous Love back on vinyl for the first time in over 25 years. Renowned as one of Kurt Cobain’s favourite albums and not available on vinyl since its original release in 1990, an experimental improv collage of tunes old and new, haphazardly dissected for maximum impact. Kurt: “I like to listen to Jad Fair and Half Japanese with headphones on, walking around shopping malls — in the heart of the American culture. I just think that, if people could hear this music right now, they’d melt.”

“One of the longest running art-punk bands in history.” - The Quietus
