Lyric

1st Full Album "SEASON", 2nd Full Album "Love Letter", Academic BANANA's new work that continues to cause physical action without any delay is the 2nd EP, which is a concept work focusing on summer. While it still has shades of the folk and popular songs that are the backbone of Tomoki Saito, it definitely feels like a new style of Akabana. Also, the arrangement of Bass. Kenta Hagiwara, who has stepped up to perfection as a band sound, surprises not only with his skill but also with the depth of the music.

Summer, written by Tomoki Saito, who has an emotional and androgynous voice, is not only about the brightness of the sun that illuminates the season, which tends to be preceded by a refreshing image, but also about the darkness that that light produces, and it always comes to an end. I can't help but separate myself from the transience of each day. And I can't help but use the words, "I feel nostalgic somehow."

The avant-garde summer begins with "Blue Jeans," which has an aggressive groove and RAP. ``CHIANTI'' has a crimson bookmark on a monochrome summer night with an irresistible sex appeal. ``Summer Tuner,'' which was produced last year with guest vocalist Naojiro Hayashi of Hirakawachi 1-chome, is recorded as Tomoki Saito's solo vocal version, making it even more sentimental. "Aaiikasa" sings about summer rain from a woman's perspective. ``Where the Wind Goes'' never lets us forget that the story is still continuing, and that our daily lives are still continuing. And in the middle of the changing seasons, ``Aoharu'' makes you love even the colors that overlap and fade. A simple, life-sized message song for my grandmother, ``I'll forgive you.''

The future and the expectations I held on the canvas of the blue sky. ``BLUE JEANS'' sometimes rewinds the cassette tape and takes ``your summer'' with you wherever you go, even though you know it will never come true.
