Photographic evidence:

Do this grim looking mob look like they have a subversive sense of humour ?

.. maybe if you can transcribe from the original Japanese...?


my hunch is "Winbreakers" may be referencing some Japanese myth or spirit,
and by extension a possible pun regarding the brass section of the band...

All very innocuous in Japanese,
but lethal in the hands of a mischeivous international record label translator.

ps.. for extra value puerile mirth..
track 2 is "What Is This Thing Called Love"
