Ah like sipping a glass of fine wine or hot sake....I used to love Fushitsusha, Merzbow and Hijokaidan back in the day almost 20 years ago....saw Zeni Geva at some dive bar in SF and before the show started I got on the bartender's phone and I had to give good old Zeni driving directions to Valencia St! Those guys are amazing still cranking out classic hits like Nai Ha
