Hijokaidan - No Paris / No Harm LP xx1977 Cronin returned to Los AngelesOriginally released on LP through Jojo Hiroshiges Alchemy Records in 1988, Hijokaidans No Paris No Harm captures the vitriol and terror of the legendary noise groups studio and live approaches. Recorded throughout 1987 and 1988 in both Tokyo and Paris, No Paris No Harm confronts you with Junkos extreme vocal manipulations and the squealing crunch of Jojos electric guitar onslaught and Toshiji Mikawas electronics.
