Nine Suns One Morning

Nine Suns, One Morning is the third album from The Silence since their formation in Tokyo in July of 2014.

While Nine Suns, One Morning is a fully-developed album of modern rock and roll that moves fluidly between ALL styles of music, many listeners are still unaware of The Silence, who have yet to tour outside of Japan.

Masaki Batoh is the leader of the group, which he formed after dissolving the legendary Ghost in 2014. Forming the sound of The Silence, Batoh draws upon the indigenous and the mysterious aspects of the spiritual world, as exemplified by western rock, blues, and British traditional music. He is supported in his endeavor by keyboardist and Bulgarian Tambula player (and original Ghost member) Kazuo Ogino; jazz saxophonist Ryuichi Yoshida; bassist Jan Stigter; and drummer Futoshi Okano (Subvert Blaze, Hijokaidan).

These men bring together a combined understanding of different values of music, literature, film, culture, psychology, philosophy, and the spirit world that informs and expands everything they play together as they work to transcend the illusions of music that have existed until now.
