Description

The cassette tape version of the 2nd Album by the musical collective Yaryu, known for keeping fixed members to a minimum and swapping participants for each sound production and live performance, continuing to perform freely and improvisationally, is released by Zouenkeikaku.

Featuring guest appearances from numerous bands, including Japan's leading guitarist Takuro Okada, vocalist J.C from んoon, flutist Wakana Ikeda who also participated in the new release of Triple Fire, and psychedelic legend Hajime Kawabata of Acid Mothers Temple, as well as Dhidalah, Sundays & Cybele, PSP Social, and Kumagusu. Despite these collaborations, the album embodies the improvisational nature of spiritual jazz, the fervor of psychedelic rock, and the spirituality of traditional Japanese music, all wrapped in the transparent textures of ambient music. "For Damage" is ambient, jazz, rock, and new age, while simultaneously stepping into a realm that is none of these.

This work was released as an LP and CD in a joint effort by Centripetal Force in the US, Cardinal Fuzz in the UK, and Ramble Records in Australia, but had almost no distribution in Japan. This cassette tape version marks the first physical release to be distributed domestically.Additionally, the cassette tape version includes a download code for the unreleased track collection "Animals in the Forest of Symbols."
