01. Reika's purity loses the puppet of "red flame" and 4:06
inscribes a proclamation to Akurei. (Amendment)
02. "Grace" hidden behind the scenes manifests as a 4:27
mediator of the rhythm that hoars down.

to capture expression at the perimeter of
perception.
04. Playing repentance is playing cards of purification 5:16
and corruption. "Wrestling" things to do

Release Notes:
teÆ is a 4-piece instrumental band that has been aggressively expanding great
performances since its formation in Tokyo in 2004. The lineup consists of
kono(Guitar), hiro (Guitar), matsuda (Bass) and tachibana (Drums).
teÆ is well-known as a representing band that has been leading and innovating
the Japanese post rock and instrumental musical scene since its beginning. The
band also has been releasing sensational records one by one, starting from the
1st maxi single released in September 2004.
Since the release of the 1st album on the U.S. label ôstatus quo audioö in March
2006, the band has certainly been garnering a lot of attention from foreign
countries, with performing the opening performance during 65daysofstaticsÆ Japan
tour, and the performance at ô2007 MegaPort Festival in Taiwanö (A musical
festival held in Taiwan).
You would be unaware that the band has no vocalist when you listen to expressive
guitar phrases and strong beats composed with the rhythms telling huge dramas
fluently. Heavy noises suddenly blow up with the bandÆs violence just like a
explosion, threatening you roughly, though they are very beautiful. In the next
moment, you would feel comfortable by the harmonies of clean tones of the
guitars. You can never stop paying attention to the thrilling compositions.
In the way of the high expression teÆ has been aiming for, lyrics are just small
containers which donÆt have enough capacities for the bandÆs emotions.
ItÆs the power of compositions that supports the dynamics of expressing emotions
which are rising right in this moment as they are, not being ordered or put into
words, and itÆs only the pure expression that can shock our minds so strongly,
the expression of the members that give everything to music and remove any
needless embellishments. This is one of the greatest arts that canÆt exist
without the bandÆs amazing techniques.
