silence: s/t

After announcing the 30 year run of his Japanese psych legends, Ghost, Masaki Batoh immediately formed The Silence. After a chance meeting in 2013 with Okano (who played on Ghost's "Lama Rabi Rabi"), & still in need of direction, Batoh turned to another old companion & original Ghost-mate, Ogino. Tasked with the production & arrangement of The Silence, Ogino selected Jan Stigter on bass, Ryuichiro Yoshida on flute & saxophone, & himself on organ & piano. With Okano playing drums & percussion & Batoh supplying guitar & vocals, The Silence was complete. The songs of The Silence fill the air with the richness of powerful rock & roll & the deep mystic resonance of the ancient traditional musics of the world.
