Original Issue: 1993 P.S.F. (PSFD-31) If you like it, BUY IT!

Margot-meter: 5 moons / 5

In my opinion, one of the most incredible releases of all times!
It really opens the gates of the Otherworld...
Handle with care!!!


Volcanic Tongue Review:

Nijiumu was originally the title of an early solo album from Keiji Haino that featured metal percussion, drones and vocals but the whole project soon became a group concern, with Haino playing everything from electronics, medieval instruments and pedal steel guitar.

...

However, here Nijiumu is simply Haino solo and right from the title Era Of Sad Wings is one of the most beautiful and affecting moments in his entire back catalogue.

Here Haino mixes high castrato chorales with slow-motion swarms of electronics, medieval drones and lugubrious, honey-thick atmospheres. Highest recommendation.
