Japan, 2024
LP

Ritualistic noise incantations inspired by the Yokai or “strange apparitions” of Japanese folklore. Tamaki Ueda summons grinding moans from her self-made metal instrument, the Banetek, over ghostly drones of human breath. Heavy with dread, to be sure, but there’s also something zoned-in and transcendent about this. The range on this label!
