Hurt [LP]

Syrup16g are one of Japan's most beloved cult rock bands, led by singer-guitarist Takeshi Igarashi, whose bleak, introspective lyrics and hazy, melodic guitar songs have earned the trio a devoted following since the late '90s. Hurt is the 2014 album that marked the band's return after their 2008 breakup, a welcome comeback that picked up right where their dark, beautiful sound left off.

A Japanese pressing on Daizawa Records, distributed in the US by Light in the Attic.
