Tip! Masonna is the solo noise project of Yamazaki Mazo, who, along with Merzbow and Emergency Staircase, has earned the respect of the entire world as an iconic figure of Japanoise. In 2002, Masonna, Christine 23 Onna, and Space Machine, the three units Yamazaki Mazo is involved with, released three albums simultaneously as the "Yamazaki Maso 15th Anniversary Freakout Triplex Series" to celebrate the 15th anniversary of their activities. The albums of these three units, Masonna, Christine 23 Onna, and Space Machine, were remastered by Soichiro Nakamura and released on analog vinyl for the first time! The latest liner notes written by Satoru Higashi Seto of Forever Records are enclosed (common to all three titles).


This is a solo noise project by Mazo Yamazaki, which started in 1987, and is a return to the roots of Masonna's basic concept of "scream and speed noise", which has been cultivated and created into a more pure and powerful disc. Screaming, harsh, noise, and speed explode, always creating a climax. No synthesizer, no cut-ups, 31 tracks in total. The rock music with screams and super high speed noise runs through, just like a condensed version of Masonna's live performance.
