JAPKAT VS THE HALATIONZ - BOP! KAT BOP! (CD)
This 11-track CD album is a split between early psychobilly "JAPKAT" and 80s style neo-rockabilly "The Halationz". This album was recorded 15 years ago, when JAPKAT wanted to release a split album with DAN ALLEYKAT (=leader of The Halationz, now renamed D.D. Danny). For various reasons, recording on the DANALLEYKAT side was interrupted and the album was put in storage for a long time, but now, after 15 years, it is being released on CD! The split album by the two, who still boast a cult following, is now complete! The album also includes a special bonus track from a session with three wood basses (recorded in 2000, featuring JAPKAT, DAN ALLEYKAT, and members of SPIDERZ, Radio Frankensteins, and Cool Cub 3). Both artists use Japanese lyrics, and the album is a maniac's delight with its very peculiar songs and unmistakable 80s billy sound
