http://skingraftrecords.bandcamp.com/album/live-at-club-goodman" rel="nofollow - From Koenjihyakkei's Bandcamp

Following the release of their album “Dhorimviskha” (one of Bandcamp Daily’s albums of the year) and during the height of the covid pandemic, Japan’s Koenjihyakkei played a rousing set to an empty Club Goodman and live-streamed their performance around the world. Now, vocalist / composer / drummer extraordinaire Tatsuya Yoshida has returned to the original recordings, and has meticulously mixed and mastered the concert for a 2025 release. “Live at Club Goodman” delivers over 100 minutes of truly unclassifiable music that blends progressive rock, jazz fusion, symphonic rock and neoclassicism with the energy of hardcore punk, the volume of metal and the attitude of rock in opposition.

In the wake of the January 2025 reissue of Koenjihyakkei’s fourth album, The QUIETUS asked “Is Koenjihyakkei’s ”Angherr Shisspa” the greatest Zeuhl album ever made?” Author Warren Hatter concluded “Tatsuya Yoshida of Ruins' lifelong love of Magma lead him to form the band Koenjihyakkei and their fourth album is the point at which he created something that eclipsed the work of his inspiration”. “Koenjihyakkei is Yoshida’s dream in technicolour. Where Ruins’ work bursted with excitement and experimentation - Yoshida now surrounds us with a glorious ecosystem of sound”.

“Live at Club Goodman” includes astounding performances culled from Koenjihyakkei’s career to date with selections from all five studio albums represented. The double CD edition adds an additional two tracks, including the live favorite “Classical Music Medley”.

HIGHLIGHTS:
-Gatefold Double LP edition contains 12 songs and is pressed on attractive “natural” colored vinyl. The initial pressing includes a collectible double-sided “Footlong OBI” sporting a band photo triptych.
-Glass-Mastered Double CD adds an additional two tracks & comes packaged in a six panel Trifold Jacket.
-KOENJIHYAKKEI have performed across Asia, the United States and Europe and will be touring in support of this release.

“Live at Club Goodman” follows January 2025’s 20th Anniversary reissue of “Angherr Shisspa: Revisited”.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.
