光のカケラ (Hikari No Kakera)

Gracefully dancing on the threshold of what is real, and what is synthetic – Walrus masterfully conducts the ebb flow between various levels of futuristic programming, transcendent vocals, and dense instrumentation on Hikari No Kakera. 

Chock full of tracks encompassing moments of artificial grandeur, emotional sublimity, virtuous musicianship, and radical production -- Walrus’ utilization of modernist textures and progressive structures cements Hikari No Kakera as one of the crown jewels of Japanese shoegaze; a 'Piece of Light' whose luminance will never dim and whose radiance still outshines 24 years past its initial release.
