holy shit, merzbow is so insane that hes made an album in memory of his favourite elephant seal. i love this guy! anyone else got this? sound wise its pretty similar to most of his current output- brutal white noise backdrops with ultra high pitched stabs of synth. i really like it.

MINAZO 1994-2005


 

 

 

Minazo, Japan's only male Elephant Seal and Merzbow's muse on the album Merzbeat (as well as the cover star) sadly passed away recently at the age of 11.
Masami and Jenny Akita made frequent trips to visit the seal and his memory will be preserved in the many photographs, paintings and albums Masami made that were inspired by this mighty animal.
Masami & Jenny Akita are both strongly opposed to the containment of animals in zoos and aquariums. Had Minazo lived in the wild he may have been able to live a bit longer as 11 is a young age for an Elephant Seal.

We will have a commemerative Minazo t-shirt, designed by Jenny Akita, at some point in the near future.
Check out the great photos on this Russian page dedicated to Minazo
Here's a link to the aquarium's Minazo photo page (if it doesn't load just refresh the page)
