Landsale (album)

Landsale is P-Model's second album.

Overview Landsale bears similarity to the debut In A Model Room, with sarcastic lyrics to the background of a nervous and energetic sound. The songs are more aggressive, with the exception of opening track "Ohayo".

Landsale went on to become the band's only chart-topping album. Hirasawa re-recorded most of the album in 1999 as Virtual Live-2 [P-Model Live at Shibuya Nylon 100% 1980].
