KUSEMONO

EMILAND

苦手も 理想郷も まさかの うちらマイノリティ派

吹っ切れて 笑っちゃうわ 関係ないね どっち派だって

グルグル狂った世界で踊ろう

この場には 癖者だけさ

苦手だった アイツと話した まさかのいい奴じゃんか

アウェイ同士 怖いものなし 背負ってきた人生 ちょい置いといて

グルグル狂った世界で踊ろう

このBARには 癖者だけさ we are

目立ちたがりなわけじゃない 誰よりもただ感じてるだけ

揃うわけない put your hands up 今いらないだけワイパースタイル

ただ研ぎ澄まして骨まで入れてdrum&bass そうことばが邪魔なくらい

暗い未来は嫌い 願いは同じ ゲラゲラ突き抜けて

グルグル狂った世界で踊ろう

無謀な夢追う世界の異人達よ

グルグル狂った世界で笑おう

出会っちゃったのは強者ばかりさ we are

グルグル狂った世界で踊ろう

この場には 癖者だけさ we are

    KUSEMONO

    EMILAND

"KUSEMONO", the first advance single from EMILAND's upcoming third album, "LIFE".

"Kusemono" is a Japanese word for someone with a strong, distinctive character - a person who doesn't quite fit the mold. In this song, it's a term of affection for those beautifully unpredictable people who make life more interesting.

EMILAND is surrounded by countless colorful characters across Japan - musicians and audience members alike. Each one radiates a powerful individuality and a vibrant energy that makes life shine.

They're never the easiest people to figure out, but they're the kind of people you always want to see again, play with again, and raise a glass with. This is a song for those lovable misfits, riding on a groove inspired by the funk beats of the 1960s.

For this recording, EMILAND welcomes Naohito "Temjin" Yomoda of Mountain Mocha Kilimanjaro on trumpet, and Yasuhiro Suenatsu of ONEGRAM on saxophone.

Artist Profile

  • EMILAND

    The People in Yellow. Proud of the Yellow's Soul. Formed at the end of Japan's Heisei era by Super Soul Diva Emi after the breakup of her former band ZUKUNASI, EMILAND was born from a desire to create something funkier, louder, and more powerful. Four uniquely charismatic musicians come together to deliver a soulful, funky, energetic, and humorous live experience that sets dance floors on fire. With their explosive performances and unmistakable personality, EMILAND brings the spirit of Japan's underground soul and funk scene to stages across the country. The band organizes the indoor festival SOULBOOK and the event DYNAMITE COASTER, while also collaborating with artists and creating music for corporate projects and special units. EMILAND released their debut album OPEN in 2020, followed by four 7-inch EPs and their second album ROLL in 2023.
