Nisennenmondai means "Year 2000 Problem" and is an instrumental Japanese girl trio from Tokyo. Visits to Tokyo by Lightning Bolt, Battles, No Age and others have unearthed these three girls with the mammoth sound. With song titles such as "This Heat," "Sonic Youth" and "Pop Group," one understand which musical territory the band comes from, and if you add Black Flag, DNA, Neu! and Pere Ubu you are pretty close to Nisennenmondai's sound. It's raw and repetitive (post) punk instrumentals, at the same time as they are wild groovy with a no wave/disco vibe. This is the first release outside of Japan and it contains the bands two EPs Neji and Tori released as one album with new cover design by Kim Hiorthoy.
