"Kokkyou Junreika" is widely regarded as J.A. Seazer's finest work, distilled from over five hours of music written for the original theatrical production by Shuji Terayama's Tenjo Sajiki. The album weaves timeless chants, Buddhist mantras, fuzztone guitar vamps, and eerie female vocals into an immersive psychedelic ritual. Supported by Seazer's droning electric organ and dramatic arrangements, this reissue restores a vital piece of 1970s Japanese underground theater music.
