This is an album of experimental solo guitar "haikus" I wrote in 2010. I was listening to a lot of Keiji Haino and Autechre at the time, and moving away from the band-centric, progressive rock music I had written with my old band Blue Sky Theory. 

It was something of a rebirth for me as a writer, and I was very proud of it... but alas, it coincided with a nervous breakdown and I never shared it with anyone outside of a few friends and family. I remember fantasizing about dropping it off anonymously in Keiji Haino's hands with a thank you note attached.

The title is a reference to a Yukio Mishima book/movie, and means "conflagration"
