The pop-punk trio of Shonen Knife that formed in Osaka in the 80s has a new live release out called ALIVE! In Osaka, and they are coming home to promote it.
The DVD/CD package was recorded live last December at the live house Fandango and includes 21 tracks from the band’s nearly 40-year career.
The release features classics such as Twist Barbie, Bear Up Bison, and Sushi Bar Song, newer tracks like Jump Into The New World and Rock N Roll Tee Shirt as well as a cover of the Nick Lowe classic Cruel to be Kind.
Influenced by 1960s girl groups, pop bands, The Beach Boys, and early punk-rock bands, such as the Ramones, Shonen Knife has built a loyal following around the globe and been credited with opening the international alternative-rock scene to other Japanese bands.
