2025 Stock, very last copies. "Merzbow's unpublished/excavated archive series by Slowdown Records began to be released in 2018, and so far 15 chapters have been published. This "35 CD Box" contains chapters 11-15 of this archival series, with the addition of "2017-2020" (5CD), a collection of five original Merzbow albums released on Slowdown Records from 2017 to 2020. These chapters are presented in chronological order of when the recordings were made, and each chapter was compiled with some concept or musical feature in mind from the vast amount of unreleased material and other sources from the corresponding time period. Chapters 11-15 of "35 CD Box" trace Merzbow's experimentation since 2006 (chapters 1-10 are included in "60 CD Box").
