Lyric

It has been three and a half months since D ended its 20th anniversary grand final and went on an indefinite hiatus, and vocalist ASAGI has finally resumed her solo career.
The title of her latest work, which comes four years after her previous work "Amabie," is "Kitsune hanabi."
The theme of the summer festivals of the Edo period unfolds in a bewitching worldview, and you can feel the newness in the old.
Singing lyrics written entirely in ancient language, Asagi's voice and appearance are exactly like mysterious fox "Tamamo-no-Mae", the nine-tailed fox, and it is no exaggeration to say that she is a possessed vocalist.
Following the supreme full album "Madara," which reached the pinnacle of neo-Japanesque, this work also allows you to experience the beauty of Japan as if a picture scroll were unfolding before your eyes.
In addition, Asagi's solo works once again bring together excellent and brilliant guest musicians and support members.
On guitar is the familiar, delicate and melodic HIRO (La'cryma Christi), and this is the first time that TERU (Versailles / Jupiter), who also worked together in JVM and carves out an intense groove, participates.
The bass is played by the dynamic YOU (Matenrou Opera), and it is also reassuring to have HIROKI (D), who has been a member of D for 20 years, supporting him on drums.
As for Japanese instruments, following on from the previous work, Ibukuro Kiyoshi (Wagakki Band / Kafugetsu), who wears an ancient air, participates on koto, and this time, the only female to participate on Tsugaru shamisen, Ninagawa Beni (Wagakki Band), lights up the darkness.
The sound of Shinya (LUNA SEA), who does Japanese drums, can be said to be the sound of a summer night.
In addition to the music video DVD for this work, it will also be released, which is a first for her as a solo artist, on Blu-ray.
With colorful fireworks exploding in the background, what kind of story will Tamamo-no-Mae, nine-tailed fox?
