IBARAKI (featuring MATT HEAFY OF TRIVIUM ) have posted a video for ""RONIN (FEATURING GERARD WAY and IHSAHN)" , a track from the bands anticipated debut "RASHOMON", due to be unleashed 5/6/2022 via NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS.
FROM IBARAKI:
Trivium singer and guitarist Matthew kiichichaos Heafy reveals the third single "Rōnin" featuring guest vocals by Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance and Ihsahn -Official- from his long-awaited and much-anticipated IBARAKI project.
The project's debut album Rashomon will be released on May 6th via Nuclear Blast.
Watch the "Rōnin" video:
"'A rōnin is a masterless warrior," shares Kiichi. "The final two full compositions on Rashōmon see a significant shift musically. The album as a whole — with the exception of the intro and outro — is actually presented in chronological order of earliest written to latter-most. The actual guitar and bass tracks are a time-capsule of sorts in that their parts — on the final album — is actually from the year they were tracked."
He continues, "One can begin to see the shifts as the years went on for the writing of the album. 'Kagutsuchi'/'Ibaraki-doji' being written and tracked in 2010/2011, all the way up to 'Rōnin'/'Susanoo No Mikoto' being written and tracked in 2016/2017."
As for his collaboration with Way, Kiichi shares, "Gerard Way has been a long-time inspiration for me — like Ihsahn and Adam Nergal Darski — I have looked to Gerard as a constant source of motivation to be creative. While Gerard and I may be from different genres than where Ibaraki and black metal stem from — outsiders of sorts — the spirit and intent of our performances is what unites our passion for pushing boundaries."
