Album Notes & Community Reviews

Widely revered for his virtuosic fuzz-guitar work with Ghost and Boris, the Japanese guitar legend delivers his first true solo album. The instrumental project serves as a showcase for his intensely emotional, psychedelic playing style, layering soaring, heavily delayed guitar solos over expansive, atmospheric space-rock rhythms.
