Crystalline guitar passages soaked in reverb and distorted sadness. Junzo’s recent Solo Albums are joined by Ikuro Takahashi of LSD March, Kousokuya and ex-drummer of Fushitsusha and High Rise and engineerd by Richard Horner at Black Snow Flake Sound in Sapporo/Hookaido. Corroborating with the cosmic dead and many other.

Momentum Lost

Torn between opposites, momentum lost syphons calmness from chaos while melody and noise collide to create drone based ambient music.
