IBARAKI "KAGUTSUCHI" LYRICS
(Featuring Paolo Gregoletto)
We watched the world - it burned away
And from the ash, we found release
We brought your kind down to it's knees
No longer bound, now finally free
Have you beheld the grace of your lord?
Withstand this hell: the you endured
I am the traitor, behold my "disease"
Not held down by your belief in deceit
You are a slave but bound to a word
The root of all pain we know in this world
Open your eyes now and proclaim defeat
Don't waste further life, renounce and repeat
Renounce and repeat
Isolation from the manipulation
Of the followers
Followers of the greatest illusion
Isolation from the manipulation
Of the followers
Congregation of noughts
Tyrant burn
On the stake from which he turned
To the undead Tyrant burn On the stake from which he turned But a dead man
Your fields are burning, your villages sacked
Halls of the holy - no longer in tact
Somehow despite what has come to be
You still cling on - to what you can't see
You're not a victim, not ruling with love
You rule with fear; a tyrant thereof
Hypocrite - fester, your righteousness rots
You mask your will by what a "god" wants
What a "god" wants
Isolation from the manipulation
Of the followers
Followers of the greatest illusion
Isolation from the manipulation
Of the followers
Congregation of noughts
Tyrant burn
On the stake from which he turned
To the undead
Tyrant burn
On the stake from which he turned
But a dead man
Take all you've done to me
Open your eyes and see
Soon we'll become the last ones
Waiting for night to come
Take all you've done to me
Open your eyes and see
Soon we'll become the last ones
Waiting for none above
I feel it changing
Cut out my heart with a knife
I feel it hating
Pull me closer
Holding me back from the world
Bass Solos: Paolo Gregoletto
I feel it changing
Cut out my heart with a knife
I feel it hating
Pull me closer
Holding me back from the world
I feel it changing
Cut out my heart with a knife
I feel it hating
Pull me closer
Holding me back from the world
We watched the world - it burned away
And from the ash, we found release
We brought your kind down to it's knees
Have you now seen what I have seen?
We watched the world - it burned away
And from the ash, we found release
We brought your kind down to it's knees
No longer bound, now finally free

The song "Kagutsuchi" is a very important one in the project's history.
"'Kagutsuchi' is the turning point in my relationship to black metal," says Kiichi. "Before crafting this piece, I believed I needed to stick to all the tropes of tradition - I didn't believe that I was able to attach my name to keep something legitimately black metal."
He continues, "Befriending Ihsahn and having him as a mentor showed me that being true to oneself is far more important than being true to a genre. Ihsahn freed my mind and encouraged the sharpening of the tools needed to begin Ibaraki properly."
Kiichi finishes, "The very recorded guitar tracks in this final album are actually from 2010/2011. This album is an auditory time-capsule of my journey in creating Ibaraki. 'Kagutsuchi' was the first song I wrote after I had begun my tutelage under Ihsahn."
"Kagutsuchi" features a guest bass solo by Trivium's Paolo Gregoletto.

Is easy to recognize the Ihsahn' spirit in all structures. He is a genius of production. Matt make the best decision.
This album is fantastic. Hope we get a video for Ibaraki-Dōji
That transition and calm verse has such strong "Opeth - Damnation" vibes. Amazing, well done!

Just listened to the full album and I have to say Matt.. as a long time Trivium fan from the Ember/Ascendancy days I genuinely think this is the most amazing thing you have made in your life time. The artistic choices that blended together for this album in all its haunting, gothic, melancholic, powerful and beautiful destructive nature is such a welcome breath of fresh air to metal. Thank you so much for this masterpiece Matt and anyone that helped bring this to life!
this is hands down the best album and chorus matt has ever done

ISOLATION
Absolute banger. The metal world needs more bands like Ibaraki. Well done!!
I don't care what anyone says about this. It's literally the best thing I've ever heard from Heafy and beyond what I'd expected. I'm so much happier he made this his own thing rather than trying to pander to black metal purists. It won't get as big as Trivium, but I don't think it should either. This is art in the medium of music and I wish more and more musicians would branch out like this and am so happy Matt decided to. Also! I love that he chose a Japanese theme rather than going with something Scandinavian. It's just really unique shit and I can't stop watching this lol

Really like this style of (clean) singing from Matt. Was totally unexpected when I first heard it on Nergals "Me and that man" project ("You will be mine", for anyone interested) and if I hadn't read it I would have never guessed it. Probably my favourite song so far from this record (have not listened to the full record, only the singles so far).
Matt, once again you're proving how creative and skillful you are. This is one of your best records to date, no doubt.
Yo... hasn't Matt Heavy been doing this for a long time with Trivium and whatnot? Will that man's brain slow down the creative juices? This is just wow!!! Way to fight and claw your way to the top of Mt. Metal sir!!!! Blessed to listen to your work for years and many more to come!!!!!
Any Band with an Album entitled RASHOMON deserves utter respect.

I just listened to this just because it was in my feed and it seemed like a cool name for a band. I listened to the song and it blew me away. I didn't even know it was Matthew from Trivium until after I finished looking at the video. I've never been a fan of Trivium, but I'm a fan of Ibaraki. Nice going Matthew! I have a new found respect for you as a song writer.
This album makes me want to become a samurai. Foresee myself listening to this album on repeat for God knows how long. Great album!

Great song.
Music truly touches my soul when it makes me cry. I don't feel sad, just can't handle the flow of emotions that music gives me. I have tears in my eyes everytime I listen to this. This is incredible, thank you.
Really great!
brilliant stuff
I love it. Great mix of cool stuff. Ihsahn makes everything he touches into gold and Matt Heafy is clearly in his prime 🤘
so good
Very nice im loving this
Amazing , perfec song .
People say this sounds like Trivium and I don't see that at all lol. This is something different entirely. It just so happens to feature the front man of Trivium.
Si a todo lo que haga Matt Heafy tremendo señor
Awesome band 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Best song of the album by far
Certified Gold!!!!!
Sehr schön ist das wenn jemand immer zurück zum seinem Wurzeln und nicht vergessen von wo kommt er,
Perfection!🤟
Very cool stuff! I get a Swano Moontower vibe near the end sections.
Wow!!! Huge love from Australia cheers
Simplemente Amazing
Great song. Need to listen to the full album. 😁
Sick song, love it
Heafy is a genius and this album kicks all the asses. Absolute masterpiece, the kind of music that makes me want to create something when I listen to it.
Please let this not be just a project! It's awseome and special.
гарно💙✨
Once again, Sir Matt Heafy outdid himself. The entire record is a work of love, but this video specifically is on point. Great aesthetics, visuals... Reminded me a lot of those Samurai stories and movies. Thank you Matt for reminding us not to be ashamed of our culture (whatever it is) and teaching us how to properly embrace it. Such a solid start to IBARAKI and a strong AOTY candidacy. All I have to say regarding the album is... Arigato gozaimasu. Thank you for once again redefining the boundaries of Metal. You nailed it!!
Wooooah!
I will always be a fan of matt heafy.
This album is a masterpiece.
