Check out the KIckstarter campaign right here!

And as of this writing, the campaign has almost expired!! (It may be over by the time you read this.) But if you can, check it out and please help their project!

Thanks, everybody! And look for new GOS soon…

New Album! Smoke Monster Attack https://godofshamisen.com/wp/?p=56 https://godofshamisen.com/wp/?p=56#respond Mon, 08 Nov 2010 10:36:22 +0000 https://godofshamisen.com/wp/?p=56

Teaming up with producer Billy Anderson, God of Shamisen returns with Smoke Monster Attack, their second album. Featuring some new tunes along with some interesting video game cover songs, we run the musical gamut from an aggressive new arrangement of the traditional “Jongara Bushi,” to the Indian-inspired mellow breakdowns of “Last Shamisen Master Attack,” to a wild metal cover of the Star Wars theme. The album will be only available digitally, and will be available to download on iTunes, Amazon, and other online stores soon! More details soon.
