Anywhere (Flower Travellin' Band album)

[1] It was their first release under the Flower Travellin' Band name and the first to feature the classic line-up of Joe Yamanaka, Hideki Ishima, Jun Kozuki and Joji Wada.

[3] Musician and author Julian Cope included Anywhere at number 28 on his list of the top 50 albums of Japanese rock, as found in his 2007 book Japrocksampler.

He wrote that those who dismiss it as a covers album have never heard it, "For its grooves contain such monstrous modifications that each track leaves the starting block a full metre lower than the hoary jalopy originals."

Cope explained that the band dissolve the 4/4 rhythm of "Black Sabbath" into an "ambient metal assault", while their version of "House of the Rising Sun" delivers "the proto-'Stairway to Heaven' shock-of-a-lifetime.

"[5] Eduardo Rivadavia of AllMusic rated the album 3 out of 5 stars, describing the music as a "unique mixture of progressive daring, psychedelic eccentricity, and muscular, heavy rock austerity".
