Lyric

awake

Yushoku-Hot

扁桃腺がはれて僕はひとりぼっちだ

たくさんの小さい何かが

僕の中で熱を生んでいた

天井も見飽きてうとうとしてたら

そいつが話しはじめて大きな朝が来た

ごらん惑星の一回転で朝日がのぼって

もう毎回の光景なのに

いいもんだろ?

ってそいつは僕の声で笑った

寒さが止まって少し汗が出た

たくさんの小さい何かは

僕の外へ出ていった

天井を染めるオレンジがでかい

ごらん惑星の一回転が音を立てて

もう毎回の光景なのにきりがなくて

ごらん惑星の一回転で朝日がのぼって

もう毎回の光景なのに

いいもんだろ?

ってそいつは僕の声で笑った

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.
