Like a stream of consciousness in an early morning light, Fuubutsushi braids memories of distant songs. These clash and coalesce, forming associations that, despite their disparate origins, settle into a tender stride.
Fuubutsushi, the quartet of Chris Jusell, Chaz Prymek, Matthew Sage, and Patrick Shiroishi, returns after minutes, days, months, and years with Meridians, their first proper full-length album in two cycles of seasons. This double LP follows their acclaimed tetralogy Shiki, a series of four albums—one for each season—released between 2020 and 2021.
Those first four albums were a sort of gathering, processing, learning, exploring and measuring of time during a global crisis. Since then, the group has been patiently ticking away at a new body of work. Meridians showcases the band chiming in their familiar musical vocabulary—ambient-leaning jazz informed by folk, new music, and post-rock—but with time’s accrual, they sound their most refined, focused, and polished to date. Fuubutsushi no longer feels like a pandemic-borne catharsis but a fully gestated and realized musical entity, with Meridians representing their most coherent statement as a group so far.
