Album Notes & Community Reviews

Helmed by the enigmatic Keiji Haino, this release documents the legendary Japanese power trio engaged in an overwhelming sonic exorcism. The extended compositions blend deafening walls of guitar feedback with unpredictable, free-form rhythm section dynamics. It is a grueling, immersive dive into absolute noise and dark psychedelia.
