Masami Akita's (aka Merzbow) psych-noise mantra, originally released on CD in 1998 by Alien8 Recordings, features the King of Japanoise on tapes, electronics, Moog / EMS Synthesizers and other devices. Now pressed on vinyl for the first time, "Aqua Necromancer" comes as an expanded double LP.
"Expect the unexpected... amidst the stalk and squeal noise, Masami has seen fit to add lots of trippy, sometimes jazzy, inherently odd, sampled beats from bands like Soft Machine and L'Orme... [they] seem to have given Masami direction and, more so, revealed a side to his noisetrations that can only be deemed psychedelic! Yes, for all the noisicians who feel they are tapping into 60's psychedelia while still pummelling us with the same monstrous (though fun) regurgitations, Aqua Necromancer is a mind-altering example of noise that can actually be called groovy" (J.C. Smith)".
Remastered by M.A. in 2021 with additional material from the same sessions. Presented in a deluxe gatefold sleeve featuring photos taken by M.A. at the National Museum, Hyokei Kan and National Science Museum, Ueno.
