“With : ankoku butoh : we felt we needed to take our work to a new level in music and touring. It wasn’t just an album for us, it was a full immersion of studying Japanese Shinto belief, organic instrumentation and dance. We released a serious package with a DVD featuring both videos and live footage from goth festivals. The live tours for 2009 and 2010 included live dancers, Taiko drums, and changing instrumentation. We felt we had finally reached the pinnacle of what Faith and the Muse wanted to achieve through the years. As the Cd has been out-of-print for a long time, I am very happy and excited to have it released on vinyl exclusively from The Circle Music!” – Monica Richards
