Item description
Ja, Zoo is the third and final full album from the late Japanese Visual Kei rocker hide.
Vinnk's Take: I have never been into Visual Kei as much as some of my friends. A lot of it is all flash and no substance. But hide was an amazing talent and aside from the visuals he also produced some fantastic music. It is a shame we could not get more of it. As the last album he worked on during his lifetime, I also think it is some of his best work. "Pink Spider" is a classic. Other standouts for me are "Rocket Drive", and "Hurry Go Round". Have a listen to the linked video and see how you feel about the sound, if you dig it, try this album. (oh, viewer discretion advised).

This CD has been tested and plays great. The photo uploaded is of the actual CD I am selling. Audio CDs from Japan have no region coding so they will play in any standard player.
CDs will be wrapped in a removable plastic sleeve and then placed in a bubble wrapped mailer for shipping. Please remember, I ship from Japan so please allow some additional shipping time. Also during Japanese postal holidays (New Year's, Golden Week, Obon) orders will be delayed while the post office is closed.
