Neko-San Kill! Kill! is the album for people who find music in the most unexpected scenarios of everyday life—melodies in the mundane. Yuko Nexus6 is certainly one of those people as, over the course of just under an hour, she plucks out rhythms and pulses from familiar, friendly, yet frequently unidentifiable sounds. What is the driving beat on “Shuffle”? What kind of bell exactly is ringing out on “Time Signal Bell”? Just what is making that sound on “Fragment6”? Did you ever think you would be nodding your head along to the sound of washing rice?

The sound palette across the smorgasbord of 27 tracks is diverse, ranging from classic sound collage on tracks like “Linguaphone” and “Fragment4,” Gamelan-esque electronica akin to Geinoh Yamashirogumi on “Interview,” weird voice experiments on “Cough” and “Saitoh” that call to mind Ami Yoshida’s ‘Tiger Thrush’ album, and even moments of adorable quirky MIDI pop on the “Cheer Up Kitty March” and “Kitty Mountaineering Party” tracks, complete with reprises of each! Speaking of reprises, the album is tied up nicely with a mini mix of the whole album in one song (and another “Pussy Cat Remix” on the tape!) from Satoru Wono.

Despite the fast pace at which this album jumps from one sound to the next, every track complements each other well and astounds the listener with how much personality and charm each track has. Though it may not be for everyone, with the extensive credits in the liner notes, and the “Fragment” tracks throughout that feature what sounds like the entire events of a lively party skipped through like a faulty CD, there is no doubt Yuko and the gang had fun making this album for you.
