Awakening by Asunojokei
The 1st full-length album by Tokyo-based Post-Black Metal band, Asunojokei that previously released on CD and LP. The 1st full-length album, "Awakening" creates a strong character for Asunojokei's sound, gazing to the deep atmospheric black-metal abyss. The melodies, the emotional screaming, a lot of experiment sounds, and everything blended as one stunning album!
"The first full album of Asunojokei, "Awakening" is based on post-black metal, but with a lot of experimentation. The members' unique approach to finding common ground and creating sound has resulted in music that is innovative yet pure. The artwork by Japanese-style painter Choji Beniko resonates with the music and enhances the nobility of Asunojokei's sound." - Asunojokei
