"Awakening Song" is the final pre-release single from The Last Person's debut album "Record of Inner Conflict".

This song symbolizes a quiet awakening in the midst of inner conflict. Rather than a loud explosion of emotion, it conveys a subtle shift, like a hidden signal of new beginnings.

Built on a base of distorted guitars, heavy basslines, and layered synths, the song presents a massive sound that remains inward-facing. Influenced by shoegaze, its reverberated textures and introspective vocals create a nostalgic, dreamlike atmosphere.

The track inherits the spirit of bands like My Bloody Valentine, Oasis, and ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, yet forms its own identity with sincerity and personal narrative.

The title "Awakening Song" is visualized through cover art featuring the word awakening translated into 12 different languages, expressing a universal theme: that everyone, somewhere, at some point, must face their own awakening.

Scheduled for release on April 30, 2025, this single marks the final step before the full album launch on May 14, 2025. It serves as a quiet signal, a beginning wrapped in noise.

Artist Profile

  • The Last Person

    The Last Person is a DIY solo artist based in Japan, whose name carries the meaning of "the man least likely to succeed." He executes every step of the creative process alone - from songwriting, composing, and performing to mixing, mastering, and artwork. Following his debut album "Record of Inner Conflict," which documented over a decade of internal struggle, in 2025 he released "Dishwashing (The Kitchen Tapes)." This collection serves as a raw prototype for his upcoming second album. Anchored in alternative rock, and incorporating the ethereal drift of shoegaze with the raw impulse of garage rock, his sound quietly captures daily life like a fixed-point observation in a midnight kitchen. The "grime" of everyday life - forcing smiles to fit in, compromising oneself to survive in society. His songs wash this away matter-of-factly. They record not a glamorous success story, but the solitude and existence of a human being living honestly.
