Very rarely do we hear an album that sounds so emotionally complicated that you're almost drawn to tears over how frail it is, and how lucky you are to hear it. Summons Of Shining Ruins is such an experience. Shinobu Nemoto treads a charred black landscape, picking up burnt fragments of his childhood and carefully threading them together into a hazy history for us to observe. Being a collector of all sorts of vintage recording equipment, this album is a massive display of Shinobu's masterful way with guitars and tapes. There is a prevailing sadness in this album, almost like Nemoto has resigned himself to an eternity of loss and decay, completely and utterly tethered to a void that overtakes everything. A brilliantly evocative trip that would definitely appeal to fans of Birchville Cat Motel, Boris and Tim Hecker. Limited edition of 100 copies with stunning photography by Jason Adams.
