In March this year Japan was hit by a life changing series of earthquakes and a devastating tsunami affecting many.
Engineer Records has put together this record in an effort to help the many children made homeless in Japan through this disaster.
The album features The Gaslight Anthem, Funeral For A Friend, Moneen and Fightstar, as well as many other artists, and includes many exclusive tracks that won't have been heard before and which have been produced solely for this compilation.
The Unity download will be available as a set of 25 tracks and for a small donation you get the whole album.
Initially, it will be available from Bandcamp on September 11th 2011 and 100 percent of the proceeds raised from donations will go to the charity. At a later date it will then also be available from iTunes, Amazon, and Spotify.
