A Concrete Mur's third album.
The first half is a documentary work that vividly traces the process that led to the formation of A Concrete Mur, incorporating both self-criticism and broader questions. At the same time, it is structured as a solo work by Takaki Nishimura. Previously released songs by FOXPILL CULT are used as source material, with Kensuke Funamoto (Yashiki) appearing as guest drummer and Akira Takazawa (sik) as guest bassist.

On "Drop Dead, Romancer,"a track from sik's latest album Labor and life is also sampled.

The second half is structured as an ongoing documentary. A Concrete Mur's second album captured in full the release show for the band's first album, MEISHIN. This album, in turn, contains the complete recording of the April 5, 2026 performance, which was staged as an attempt to recreate that live recording onstage once again.

Comment from Takaaki Nishimura
"A Concrete Mur's third album is a documentary work that records both the process through which the band came into being and its present moment, while setting the boundaries between 'work,' 'record,' 'reenactment,' and 'falsification' into circulation."

Artist Profile

  • A Concrete Mur

    A multidisciplinary art collective that constructs language as signs and sound as stage design, presenting an expansion of auditory perception. The core members are Takaki Nishimura (founder of FOXPILL CULT), Kouya Juusangatsu (ex. Kaiten Hyakume), Mari Komoda (second-generation director of Showa Seigo Office), and Sui. In 2026, they released their debut album Meishin. Drawing on their deep involvement in Japan's underground theater, goth, and new wave scenes, they founded Gendai Zikken Kan, developing a mode of expression they describe as "Post-Underground." They regard their respective artistic practices and works not as fixed, finished products, but as documents continually transformed through recording, reenactment, and falsification. Their creative practice takes the very boundary between art and reality as its subject.
