A complete document of the final Osaka date on the summer 2007 Hotter Than Inferno Western Japan Tour by ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE & THE COSMIC INFERNO (featuring PPIKACHU of AFRIRAMPO). The miraculous injection of power provided by the addition of grenade-girl Pikachu to the ranks, and the special guest appearance by YAMAZAKI MASO (aka MASONNA) meant that this date at Bears was insanity on an unprecedented scale. By the end of the group’s set there was so little oxygen left in the venue that no one’s lighter would work!

Recorded live on December 19th, 2008 at Mission's, Tokyo.

A man and a woman meet. She is French, he's Japanese. The couple separate and, ten years later, the woman goes to Japan in search of one last image of her lost love. In a temple buried under the snow, the man and woman share a daily life filled with their past history.
