This 2010 album from Merzbow, "Ouroboros," marked a return to more rhythmically structured, albeit still abrasive, electronic compositions that drew comparisons to industrial and early electronic music. The release was notable for its tight, often percussive, arrangements.

Merzbow is the primary project of Japanese noise musician Masami Akita, known for his prolific output and pioneering work in the harsh noise genre. Akita had been releasing music for nearly three decades by the time "Ouroboros" was released, having already established himself as a central figure in the international noise scene.
