Digidogheadlock is the eighth album by Japanese band The Mad Capsule Markets. The album explored the sound that would later be used on their following album, Osc-Dis. TORUxxx stepped in on guitar for this album, although Takeshi Ueda recorded guitar on the track "Asphalt Beach". This album gained the band recognition by Digital Hardcore Recordings founder and Atari Teenage Riot frontman Alec Empire, who remixed two tracks and invited the band to tour with ATR. The album was released two years before the breakthrough album Osc-Dis, but there was little international interest at the time. The song "3:31" is a reference to vocalist Kyono's birthdate.
All tracks by Takeshi Ueda except where noted.
This album was released in Europe with a yellow cover (with no lyrical translations and a contains a typing error on the track listing), and in the U.S. with a purple cover. The US version only contains the two remixes by Alec Empire, whereas European version features an extra remix by the Japanese electronic band Audio Active. both of these versions are out of print, and very hard to find.
