Unshin started as a 3 piece writing team, we started writing songs together and after a few tracks we came up with the idea of "Waltz for Broken Dolls" a story about a young girl growing up under the strict pressures of Japanese society but manages to stay on her own path and find herself as a individual.
We decided that each track of the album we would write specifically to fit the story rather than a genre of music. This created a completely unique sounding album that has drawn upon and fused many different styles of music.
Whilst creating the album we met the rest of the band members that in some way or another have been involved with the album. We did a few gigs together and the chemistry was right.
For our live performance we have collaborated with a Japanese animator Mai Yoshida who has created a short animation for each track of the Waltz for Broken Dolls album, we project the animations above the band during the performance. This along with the dynamics of the music has created a totally unique and colourful musical experience.
We are on many internet community sites so please come and join us and help spread the word.
