SHIBA INU

Call, and it may not come. Walk away, and it never truly leaves.

SHIBA INU is Chapter Two of IKIMONOIR's Seirui Kitan (Tales of Living Creatures), portraying the Shiba Inu's reserved affection, proud independence, and subtle bond with humans.

Driven by shamisen, biwa, shinobue and taiko, the track pairs a warm low male vocal with the powerful voices of a traditional Japanese folk ensemble. It captures a loyalty that cannot be explained by obedience alone.
