POiSON GiRL FRiEND, the solo project by nOrikO—who now captivates the world with her ethereal, whispering vocals—is set to have its mini-album *POiSON GiRLFRiENDS* reissued for the first time on CD and vinyl!

Originally released in March 1991 on nOrikO’s own indie label, PSYCHO-PLANET COMMUNICATIONS, this is a six-track mini-album. The unique worldview of PGF—which evolved independently under the influence of post-punk and UK dance culture—was already firmly established at this early stage.

A highlight of this release is the inclusion of the prototype version (alternative guitar version) of Track 1, “Hardly Ever Smile (Without You),” widely regarded as an ambient pop classic. Other highlights include Track 2, “You Never Did Understand,” with its striking bassline and slightly faster BPM; Track 3, “Save Our Planet,” featuring a beautiful intro that seems to give voice to the collective unconscious and carries a message still relevant today; Track 4, “I’m Here And Here I’ll Stay,” with its pleasant rhythm machine beat; Track 5, “Start Worrying (Use Your Brain),” distinguished by its unique rhythm pattern; and the closing masterpiece, Track 6 “When You Call My Name,” featuring a delicate voice shrouded in deep echoes that seem to emerge from the mist—a track you’ll want to listen to forever. This collection brings together tracks that can be considered a valuable record of Japan’s early club music and electro sound scene.

The recording features Shin Otsu, now an indispensable guitarist for PGF, longtime musical friend Naoko Eto, and DJ BABY TOKIO (Nobuyoshi Sekine). This is a valuable work documenting the scene on the eve of PGF. Originally released exclusively on CD in 1991, this marks the first-ever release on vinyl LP. It is truly the reissue the world has been waiting for. The re-release of this rare, first indie work—which had become extremely difficult to find—can truly be called a major event.
