KOENJIHYAKKEI THIRD ALBUM REVAMPED, REVISITED AND ON VINYL FOR THE FIRST TIME.
o “The place where seemingly inexhaustible imagination and unfaltering technique intersect” - The VINYL DISTRICT
Years after its orignal 2001 release, band leader Yoshida Tatsuya and the current Koenjihyakkei line-up (as heard on “Dhorimvishka”) returned to the original “Nivraym” master recordings and went to work - adding new flourishes, additional overdubs and re-recorded drum tracks. Now, for its first ever vinyl release, the album has been remixed, remastered and resequenced for this revolutionary revisitation - the band purest, most uncompromising expression of Zeuhl music to date; blending progressive rock, symphonic rock, fusion and neoclassicism with the energy of hardcore punk, the volume of metal and the attitude of rock in opposition.
OTHERS ON KOENJIHYAKKEI:
o “Japan Tatsuya Yoshida has seen it all... (and) is easily seen as a godfather of today blossoming art-rock-noise-pop scene” - PITCHFORK
o "Repeated listens reveal a calculatingly precise logic behind each and
every mad progression, giving the band colorful music a sense of arresting inevitability” - BANDCAMP DAILY
o “…takes punk and prog-rock to the opera house for an immaculately arranged mosh pit… simultaneously challenging and fun” - NPR
o “The labyrinthine twists and turns, with sudden shifts in tempo and dynamics, will leave you slack jawed with astonishment. Any one of these pieces will leave fragments of melody reverberating around your skull for days... This is by no means just for Zeuhl fans - open minded fans of just about any sub genre should find plenty to enjoy here, between the highly symphonic keyboard sounds, the piledriving rhythms, the jazzy chord patterns and the atmosphere of a group of highly skilled players doing exactly what they do best and loving every minute of it.” - PROG ARCHIVES
o ”The second track "Becttem Pollt" has got to be one of the best prog rock compositions of the past decade. The instrumental section in the middle is so intense and proggy that you might even have to stop the CD to catch your breath. I cant find a weak track here.” - GROUND AND SKY
