Official press release:

Trivium singer and guitarist Matthew Kiichi Heafy released RASHŌMON, the long-awaited and much-anticipated album from his Ibaraki project, last year via Nuclear Blast. Listen to the full album here.

Today, Heafy has shared the video for "Jigoku Dayū," which was directed by Black Card Films.

Heafy shared the following:

When I first witnessed the original classic Japanese painting of Jigoku Dayū, I was mesmerized; then I read the story," Heafy explains. The story is one that still haunts me to this day: a woman captured, enslaved, and forced into a world of servitude. The kimono she forged for herself depicted all the scenes of hell — a metaphor of the prison she now lived in.
