hotratz Just a great record from start to finish. Simultaneous bass groves and the vocals!!! Love this album, most authentic and unpretentious music I've heard in years. Of all the modernisations of traditional forms, the rhythms and groves fit perfectly with the soaring expression of Pansori, and prompted me to delve into and appreciate this most unique and beautiful form of cultural expression. Favorite track: Ultimate Prescription.

headlesslady It's like Korean traditional music & Klaus Nomi had a baby. Favorite track: Tiger Is Coming.

Lute FP Sometimes I hear something that is so completely the product of a vision or inspiration that, regardless of specific taste or aesthetic, it captures me and will not release me until I kneel before it, open my wallet, and purchase it. Because Completeness must be paid respect. Or at least paid...

Kidding, and not. This is sonically captivating. It’s a trip. It’s weird. It’s Korean, I don’t understand a word of it, and I love it. Probably nobody’s cup of tea, cuz you’ve never heard it

about

<Sugungga> begins with the Dragon King of the Sea being suddenly diagnosed with a terminal illness, using numerous medications to cure it with no success. A wizard appears out of the blue, examining the King’s condition and proclaiming that the only remedy for the illness is the liver of a rabbit. The King asks his ministers who would volunteer to go out to the land to get it, who were hesitant to answer because it was a feat impossible for most sea creatures. Then, the softshell turtle offers to find a rabbit and bring it back, being able to navigate freely between the land and sea. He meets dangerous animals such as the tiger, but cleverly escapes from the dangers, and eventually meets a rabbit, persuading him that if he comes down to the sea palace, he would be awarded a position of higher class and power. Convinced, the rabbit follows the softshell turtle into the sea, where he is captured by the guards and presented in front of the King, who demands his liver. Realizing that he had been tricked, he calmly tells the King that he had left it for safekeeping on the land and that he would go fetch it if the King lets him go. Despite the skeptical softshell turtle, the King lets the rabbit go back to the land on the softshell turtle’s back. Upon reaching the land, the rabbit mocks the King’s foolishness and runs away into the woods. He escapes narrowly from a preying eagle, but nevertheless overcomes the dangers and spends the rest of his life peacefully on the land until his death when his spirit safely lands on the Moon.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell

Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know zacharypinkham
