The 5.6.7.8's "Bomb The Twist" CD
Six song EP from the queens of throwback Japanese garage rock. You saw them in Kill Bill. Their cover of the Rocketeens' "Woo Hoo" was included on the soundtrack for that film, but it appeared on this CD first. The title track is possibly the greatest song they've ever recorded. Highly recommended.


The Gimmies "Phonic Souls" CD
Motor City madness from Japan! In your face rock and roll that would make the MC5 proud. In fact, this album was mastered and co-produced by Michael Davis of the MC5. Seal of approval. For fans of Guitar Wolf and Teengenerate.


Guitar Wolf
"Golden Black" CD (Best of)
26 tracks of some of the greatest Guitar Wolf songs ever recorded. This anthology spans the band's entire 18 year career and includes rare, out of print, and previously unreleased material. Some of the disc's hightlights include tracks off of the long out-of-print Matador releases "Jet Generation" and "Missile Me", the songs featured in Wild Zero. No one's music collection is complete without this record, highest possible recommendation.


Guitar Wolf Tribute V/A
"I Love Guitar Wolf Very Much" CD
13 tracks of Guitar Wolf covers by some of the best bands of today including Lightning Bolt, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Snuff, J. Mascis and the Fog, Sonic Youth's Jim O'Rourke and many others. Listen to your favorite GW songs in a diverse array of styles. Highly recommended. Listen to Porch Ghouls' "Fujiyama Attack" and Puffy Amiyumi's "Can-Nana Fever" below.


Guitar Wolf "LoveRock" CD or LP
One of the greatest rock and roll bands in history. No joke. Guitar Wolf play furious, high distortion, stripped down rock and roll in its purest form imaginable. Clad in matching black leather jackets and pants, Guitar Wolf, Bass Wolf, and Drum Wolf have been the forerunners of "Jet Rock" since they formed in 1987. You may have seen them fighting alien zombies in Wild Zero (the DVD of which is for sale below). Loverock is their eighth album and is 17 tracks in length. The LP is on orange vinyl beneath a heart-shaped die-cut cover, very nice.


Guitar Wolf "UFO Romantics" CD
The seventh full length release from the coolest band in the world featuring some of the most cleanly produced Guitar Wolf songs you'll ever hear. 13 new songs about UFOs, alcohol and rock 'n' roll. Enhanced CD features a music video for the title track.


Guitar Wolf "R.R.E." CD
Guitar Wolf teach you Rock N Roll Etiquette on their sixth full length. Sixteen tracks of high energy jet rock and roll including one of their best songs yet, "God-Speed-You", as well as a cover of The Cramps' "The Way I Walk". The booklet includes some of the coolest photos of the band we've ever seen.


Guitar Wolf "Red Idol" DVD
70 minutes of promotional videos and live footage interspersed with interviews chronicling the band's history. Features videos for God Speed You, Sky*Star*Jet, U.F.O. Romantics, Summertime Blues, Murder By Rock, and I Love You, OK. Live songs include Jet Generation, All Through The Night Buttobase!!, and Refrigerator Zero. Members of Jet Boys and Jackie and the Cedrics are featured in interviews.

Guitar Wolf in "Wild Zero" DVD
Guitar Wolf star in this Japanese rock 'n' roll zombie horror classic. A must-see for fans of leather jackets, buckets of blood, laser guitar picks, and romance! No cinematic genre is left untouched as aliens invade the Earth unleashing a zombie virus that only aspiring rock hipster Ace and his new allies Guitar Wolf can defeat. Features performances of the GW classics "Jet Generation" and "Roaring Blood". Widescreen, 98 minutes in length. Extras include a behind-the-scenes music video, a drinking game, and more.

The Jet Boys "I Wanna Die" 7"
The Jet Boys have been playing ear-blistering garage rock since 1995. Think Guitar Wolf with a tad less distortion. This is a 7" which means that its too big to fit in your CD player. And odds are you won't be able to hear it on your iPod.

Mad 3 "Teenage Delinquent!" CD
"The delinquents with their too-tight leathers and the teenage savages -- out for madness...a new kick!". Twelve tracks of distorted, lo-fi, throwback garage rock with some surf, punk, and rockabilly riffs thrown in. Includes a cover of the Vibrators' "Baby Baby". Recommended for fans of Guitar Wolf and Thee Michelle Gun Elephant.


The Pebbles "First Album" CD
Go-go boots, mini-skirts, and lo-fi throwback rock and roll. The Pebbles are a trio from Tokyo who, lucky for us, were born five decades too late. Fourteen tracks including two Link Wray covers! For fans of the 5.6.7.8's and the Beatles.
OUT OF PRINT 8/16/06

The Rodeo Carburettor
"S/T" CD
High distortion rock-n-roll trio that will set your soul on fire! Formed back in 2001, this is their fifth full-length release and their first US release. More stylish than punks, more punk than greasers...Guitar Wolf comparisons are inevitable.


The Spunks
"Yellow Fever Blues" CD
NYC's finest garage punk rockers are back with their first Gearhead Records release. 12 tracks featuring live staples like "Hey! Hey! Hay!" and "I Love Wok & Roll" as well as some brand new songs including a cover of The Clash's "Brand New Cadillac". Produced by Don Fury (Youth of Today, Bouncing Souls). Highly recommended for fans of Guitar Wolf, Teengenerate and Chinese food.


The Spunks "Born To Be Mild" CD
One of Tokyo no Radio's favorite bands. The Spunks play loud, high energy ROCK AND ROLL with a sense of humor and a firm grasp on what American listeners want to hear. They're one of those bands whose CDs don't quite do their live shows justice so the next time they're in your area be sure to check them out (they're currently based out of NYC and tour quite often). Recently signed to US label Gearhead Records.


The Spunks "Sex, Drink, Motor-rides" CD
Wok and roll!!! The Spunks play super high energy kamikaze garage ROCK AND ROLL. This album contains lots of their live staples including "Jet Blue" and "Here Goes The Black Cat". For fans of Guitar Wolf and the Jet Boys. Highly recommended!


Teengenerate "Get Action!" CD
The debut full-length from Tokyo's kings of garage punk rock. A super lo-fi blast of mid-60s garage rock combined with a modern power pop sound. Loud, fast, and incredibly fun. 17 tracks including a cover of the Queers' "Kicked Out Of The Webelos". Highly recommended.
TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK 1/16/08


Teengenerate "Savage" CD
A collection of eight songs from a previously released 10" plus two unreleased tracks. More lo-fi, static filled garage rock from one of Tokyo's best.


Yoko Utsumi "S/T" CD
Yoko Utsumi has been a mainstay in the Japanese rock scene since the early 80s. Think Shonen Knife via Guitar Wolf (I think we compare too many bands to Guitar Wolf). This CD serves as the perfect "greatest hits" compilation and features members of Potshot and MU330 as the backing band.
