Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released on October 27, 1978, 'Obscure Alternatives' was Japan's second album, following their debut 'Adolescent Sex.' At this point in their career, the band was beginning to refine their sound, moving towards a more polished, atmospheric style that would define their future work. This album reflects their transition from glam influences to a more avant-garde approach.
