Made in USA is a compilation album by Japanese pop band Pizzicato Five. The album was released in the United States on October 11, 1994 by Matador Records,[1] serving as the band's first full-length, and second overall, American release on the label. Along with the Five by Five EP released earlier in 1994, it introduced Pizzicato Five to a Western audience.
The compilation is titled after the 1966 film Made in U.S.A, directed by Jean-Luc Godard, one of the band's inspirations.[2]
In 2011, Made in USA was included in LA Weeklys "beginner's guide" to Shibuya-kei music.[3]
