Vinyl LP pressing. Batoh is back! Solo again after last fall's new Silence album, the Japanese psychedelic guru makes some one-man performances, with others featuring Ghost and Silence family members, including free drumming legend of Fushitsusha and early Ghost, Hiroyuki Usui. In the richness of an all-analog production, Batoh decries the existential opacity of our latter-day faith, drawing deeply from the musical, linguistic and spiritual traditions of all countries, fused into a new music for the believers and non-believers alike in our new century.
