KAMIKAZE

What do I see in the quickly falling petals?
We are truly stained, beautifully broken.

LPC's 3rd Single, "Kamikaze" -- Souls once scattered into the sky gaze upon this "peaceful" country. A wailing mixture of rock that cuts through the emptiness of modern times.

LPC, straddling the line between silence and thunder, releases their third single, "Kamikaze." The title points to the memories of those who once burned their lives for their country and passed away like quickly falling petals.

"In the shadow of the skyscrapers, we are ghosts."

Ancient remains lurk in the shadow of modern prosperity.
What would they think if they saw Japan today, where spiritual anchors have been lost in exchange for material wealth? Strangled by peer pressure, "cog-driven citizens" monitor each other within a "140-character cage." Was this the future they sought to protect?

Using digital noise and thunderous guitar, LPC exposes the contradictions of a modern society that has become tamed by peace and yet has become righteously tainted. A sharp gaze from the past pierces through us, our emptiness, where value can only be measured by the number of likes we receive.

In the second half of the song, at the end of the destructive sound, a sad yet beautiful melody emerges. It is the moment when the transience of those who became "flashes" out of righteousness and pride intersects with a poignant antithesis to us, who have forgotten even the value of risking our lives for something.

When the wind of God sweeps away our despair and returns everything to nothing, we realize for the first time that it may be we, the ones currently embedded in the system, who are dead while still alive.

"Say goodbye to the broken me..." Awe of the lost souls and a resolve to live in the present. Unfollow everything and grasp it, and discover LPC's own version of "truth."
