Osiris, Japan


In the Mist of Time. 1980 Sound of Poppy

One man band fancies himself as a Richard Pinhas virtuoso, complete with dark synthesizer runs and ominous guitar journeys. However, there are those annoying late 1970s and early 1980s cheesy synth tones, that in turn bog down a promising album. Especially when considering the wonderful mad bursts of fuzz guitar that come out of nowhere. Worth a few listens, but not essential. Fans of artists like Ilitch would certainly benefit from a CD reissue, and that would be the target audience.

Please note the comment below from the original artist.

Priority: None

He have released plenty of titles as cassette only release, so RYM might be listing them ?
