Age of 369

Age of 369 (Miroku no yo) is an album by the Japanese noise musician Merzbow.[1] The title is a reference to Onisaburo Deguchi, the founder of Oomoto.[2] Onisaburo claimed to be the Maitreya (the future Buddha), which is Miroku in Japanese. 369 is Goroawase wordplay for Miroku. The original track titles are taken from Ultraman monsters.
