Lyric

elm tree

Yushoku-Hot

青、青白い車の排気と

騒ぐ午後の街のノイズ

触れるたび

胸の奥いらいらが少し収まってく

遠い昔に並べた小さな嘘が、

ひどい奴らと笑い疲れた阿呆な記憶が、

あの日僕らに落ちた楡の葉の影が、

今の僕にもぜんぶ降り注いだ

ハルニレの陰のなか僕は目を閉じて

百年の風と雨と太陽の歌を聴く

ハルニレの陰のなか僕は目を閉じて

百年の風と雨と太陽の歌を聴く

遠く遠ざかるだるい眠気と

浅い午後の街のノイズ

触れるたび

胸の奥いらいらがいらいらが少し

寂しいときに見上げたビルの横顔が、

ダサい奴らと泣き疲れた阿呆な記憶が、

あの日僕らに落ちた楡の葉の影が、

今の僕にもぜんぶ降り注いだ

ハルニレの陰のなか僕は目を閉じて

百年の風と雨と太陽の歌を聴く

あの日僕らに落ちた楡の葉の影は

今の僕にもぜんぶ降り注いだ

ハルニレの陰のなか僕は目を閉じて

百年の風と雨と太陽の歌を聴く

ハルニレの陰のなか僕は目を閉じて

百年の風と雨と太陽の歌を聴く

Devotion to the Piano and the Voice

We naturally came to a point where we were doing live performances with just vocals, piano, and minimal rhythm. So, Shottan, our vocalist, said, "Why don't we release an album like that?" That's how this album came to be a reflection of the kind of sound we've been doing in our recent live shows.
I create music by first visualizing a scene and putting it into words, then composing it on the piano. First, I play the piano while coming up with the melody. Since I've always liked electronica and hip-hop (beats), I piece together various rhythms, cutting and pasting them bit by bit to form the rhythm track. Then finally, I "properly" record the vocals again. The goal is to keep as much of the original scene intact as possible.
This dedication to song and piano became intricately woven into 13 tracks without unraveling.
