Seminal 80's Japanese punk band, fronted by the one handed, raspy-voiced, fan-punching legend Masami, who passed on young(like many of his contemporaries) in the early 90's, apparently of liver failure brought on by excessive love of the drink.
1984-1989:
Part 1
Part 2
Masami's post-Ghoul but very similar sounding band, Sqwad:
In 2002, a two disk tribute to Masami was released, featuring a whole host of Japanese underground punk/hc bands. The title ,汚れなき豚友達へ, means something like 'to the pig-friends who are not filthy'. There's a bunch of good stuff on here, but Paintbox's cover of the title track is pretty much worth the d/l itself.
