Achozen (UH-choh-zen ) (occasionally typeset as AcHoZeN) is a project by System of a Down bassist Shavo Odadjian, Wu-Tang Clan member RZA, Killarmy member Kinetic 9, and Wu-Tang Clan affiliates Reverend William Burke. The group's debut album has been completed and set for release for several years now, and it is unknown when or if the album will be released, considering Odadjian's commitments to System of a Down, who reunited in 2011. In July of 2015, the group released a boombox digital collection of 8 songs recorded over the last few years. A standard album is still in the making, though songs are already available. After both Wu-Tang and System of a Down organized their respective reunions, material was released. == Achozen's music style == The music of Achozen is described by one writer as "space hip hop, rap without a coast or even a planet. Instead, each song revolves around a solar system of feeling. The album explores and exorcises a spectrum of emotions, as each track delves into either pain, ecstasy, hate or hope. Utilizing sitar and violin, Shavo breaks the mold, playing live instruments across the album, as he constructs beats with a cosmic fluidity".〔("Achozen: A Name to Remember" )〕 Odadjian has stated in an interview that: Guest cameos on the AcHoZeN album flourish, and include those from John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers, George Clinton, Sick Jacken of Psycho Realm, GZA from the Wu-Tang Clan, Killah Priest, Michael ArkAngelo aka Naphtali amongst others. RZA and Shavo anticipate upcoming tours. Achozen also appears on the major motion picture, Babylon A.D., on which Achozen song "Deuces" is heard at the introduction of the film.〔("Babylon A.D. Movie Credits" )〕 Achozen's first live show was at the Key Club in L.A on December 1, 2006.〔("System of a Down's Shavo Odadjian: The Gibson Interview" )〕 On Friday, November 13, 2009 the second Achozen track "Salute/Sacrifice" was released exclusively as a free download on Odadjian's online art district and networking site, urSESSION.com, from the upcoming AcHoZeN debut album. The AcHoZeN album was anticipated to be released in mid-2010.〔("Shavo Odadjian Releases a New Achozen Song for Free on Friday the 13th" )〕 That year, it was announced that the album was still on hold. The Achozen album is set to be released with a special DVD with the album's main disc. The album will also feature funk musician George Clinton (P-Funk), ex-Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist John Frusciante, Wu-Tang affiliate Killah Priest, Wu-Tang Clan member GZA, Sick Jacken of Psycho Realm, and Leggezin Fin.〔(urSESSION - AcHoZeN - LOS ANGELES - United States )〕 Achozen's first song, "Deuces", was premiered online on April 22, 2008. Coincidentally, that date is also band member Shavo Odadjian's birthday. 2009 and 2010 awaited the album, as well. The album is currently awaiting distribution and a confirmed label deal. Shavo has said that he may give the album out for free, having a completed work, seeing as how much time has passed. The album was ultimately released in a fixed boombox collection kit in 2015, and both Shavo and RZA have stated more songs coud potentially be released in other formats. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Achozen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
