Lyric

What exactly is "reality"? The moment we say "now," it ceases to be "now." We are undeniably living through moments that elude our grasp. The more we contemplate, the more we realize the "present" can only exist at "zero." But can anything truly "exist" at "zero"? Captivated by such questions, I, Takashi Obana, have poured my heart and soul into my third album, "Yayoi Hell," straddling the line between sanity and madness.

The album consists solely of vocals and acoustic guitar. All embellishments are stripped away, opting for "solo performance" and "one-take recording." It's about capturing the driving sensation that can only be expressed through solo acoustic performances in one take. With a relentless dedication to this approach, the album condenses rock and roll to its extreme.
