Merzbow – Circular Reference CD

Masami Akita continues his work as the world's premiere extreme dynamicist on 'Circular Reference,' his latest full-length and first for No Holiday. It's a torrent of synthesized tones colliding against punishing layers of feedback and midrange noise. But there are also snatches of lurching rhythms to be found, as well as moments of relative uneasy calm. More than anything, it's distinctly Merzbow.

Released on 2xLP and CD formats, the latest from this titan of noise is sure to please longtime listeners and new disciples. We recommend playing this one especially loud.
