I am currently so blow away by this that I find it difficult to think of any other 21st century albums that have impressed me.


Wild & furious psychedelic madness by NANJO ASAHITO (High Rise/Mainliner) on bass, KAWABATA MAKOTO (Acid Mothers Temple) on guitar and YOSHIDA TATSUYA (Ruins) on drums. Ten new compositions from the exceptional trio. Extremely heavy psychedelia at its best!
