Cassette, Japan, 1997
Genre: Hardcore
Ultra rare Japanese hardcore demo privately issued by Offside Trap in 1997. Recorded at Studio M between January 8–14, 1997, and engineered by Yasutake, this tape captures the fierce immediacy and uncompromising energy of the mid-’90s Japanese underground scene.
Tracklist:
A
Cycle Death
Next For My Life
B
One and Only
Emulation Invader
The production is raw yet precise, emphasizing the visceral instrumentation and shouted urgency that defined Japan’s hardcore sound during that era. Circulated in extremely limited quantities, Demo ‘97 remains one of those elusive artifacts that rarely surface outside Japan.
Playback tested. Stored long-term, with slight wear consistent with age. Sold as-is a vital document for collectors of obscure Japanese hardcore ephemera.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
The Story
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
