PAYMENT WILL BE TAKEN WHEN YOU COMPLETE CHECKOUT.

AKA MEME by MERZBOW was first released on cassette in 1983 on Masami’a own label ZSF Produkt and on V2 Uitgave (a Sub-label of V2 Organisation). The tape was later re-released in other two editions but is long out of print and impossible to find.

This is Indusatrial-Noise from the early years, made by the master of Japanoise. Recordings that mix many different sounds that including ritual-sounds, vocals, found-sounds, treated-guitar, many different rhythms, noise…. and a wired and wide range of other bubbling and rumbling sounds! A total MERZEXPERIENCE!
