RAZORCAKE #101 (USA) SUSHICORNER’s Konichiwow is mesmerizing. Once the needle dropped and the first measure of “Shadows” burst from my speakers, I became an instant devotee: twangy, fuzzed-out guitars that endlessly spiral; hypnotic, layered vocals; and propulsive, almost cultish rhythms. This isn’t a record for wimps—it left my brain feeling prickly. Sometimes reminiscent of the acid-touched angularity of Thee Oh Sees, Sushicorner drowns me in a flood of sound. All of this is achieved by an Italian duo: Pilleri and Orrú. Konichiwow is twelve songs of strung-out noise surf. Imagine if the soundtrack to Beach Party was written by art rock-loving deviants. I’ll ride that wave (Sean Arenas)
MRR #414 (USA) The first thing that one notices about SUSHICORNER record is how loud it is. Not only is it loud, but it´s trebly and piercing. This works out to the benefit of the record, with itßs lo-fi recording,clean guitar and carnival synths. Konichiwow is an abrasive listen, and a fun one. If you find yourself wanting the junk sound and sheer idiocy of AUSMUTEANTS, this is alsmost got you. SUSHICORNER is less dumb than just goofy and weird. Whether you want some assaulting synth punk, weirdo pop touched garage or just a bizarre listen, this LP might be for you (LP)
AUDIO AMMUNITION (US) This is the debut album from this duo from the Italian island of Sardinia. They play some high strung, mid-tempo songs packed full of organ and sass. The record is self-recorded by the two guys and has a healthy dose of reverb coating all of the songs. Some of the tunes are pretty catchy and remind me of a scrappier, slowed down Radioactivity mixed with Pavement’s wisenheimer attitude. In fact, the whole album has a heavy 90’s era “college band” feel to it. It also reminds me a lot of this 2009 record called Hippies from this Austin, TX band called Harlem
OX MAGAZINE (GER) #134 Mit einem D.I.Y.- Album, entstanden in einer der vielen Höhlen an der sardinischen Felsenküste, bringt das unkonventionelle Duo SUSHICORNER ein respektables Debütwerk raus, dem es weder an Ruppigkeit, Kanten noch an starken Melodien und originellen Arrangement-Einfällen mangelt. SUSHICORNER bestehen aus Andrea Pilleri (vormals bei den RIPPERS) und UNDISCO KIDD-Mastermind Orru. In langen Sessions haben sie ein quirliges Ensemble von Casio-Drumloops, Farfisagejaule, kratzbürstigen Fuzz-Riffs und überraschend eingängiger Popmelodik zusammengeschraubt, das „Konichiwow“ mit einem ganz eigenen Charme ausstattet. Man könnte es sich einfach machen und SUSHICORNER abfertigen als BLACK LIPS mit Orgel. Doch in diesem Album steckt eine solche Menge an Kreativität und guten Ideen, dass die Sardinier damit beinahe den Lips die Show stehlen können. Vom kratzbürstigen Opener „Shadows“ bis zum elften und letzten Song „Paranoid zumba“ spannt sich ein Bogen, mit dem ein so ungewöhnliches wie magnetisierendes Album zusammengehalten wird (8/10) (GH)
RUMORE (IT) Andrea Pilleri è bassista dei Rippers, urlatore nei Thee Oops, cantate-chitarrista dei Love Boat. Tre grandi gruppi sardi che rimestano nelle frattaglie del r’n’r, ognuno con la propria cifra stilistica: dal garage punk all’hc, fino al pop. Assieme ad Antonio Orru degli Undisco Kidd ha colmato l’assenza sintetica con questo duo anomalo nel panorama italiano in cui si tende da sempre a indossare rigide uniformi. Konichiwow è un album di synth pop chitarristico, molto dopato, chiaro e scuro allo stesso tempo, che fa incontrare Suicide e Black Lips sulla spiaggia di Chia. Le due voci, puntellate dal Farfisa Matador, procedono all’unisono creando un unicum melanconico (Another Day, Not Dying to See Her, A Sad Story) a tratti ansiogeno (The House with a Gate) comunque sempre elegiaco, anche quando i ritmi salgono e fanno materializzare il fantasma di Jay Reatard (Shadows, One at the Time). (MG)
