The rare lyricist HAIIRO DE ROSSI has released an urgent protest song based on the current world. In his long career, he often released songs with a conscious theme, but this is the first time he has released a song with a clear anti-war theme.
The heavy Beat, which begins with a message from the Russians calling for anti-war in Russian, is clearly in a serious atmosphere.
Beat, which repeats technical and complicated development with the content of sharp lyrics driving on it, is produced by ally Pigeondust.
The artwork is by the painter Hiroko Konishi.
Manakurv of forte was in charge of MIX, and Hiroshi Shiota of SALT FIELD MASTERING was in charge of Mastering.
He declares in lyrics, "I don't want to sing as a fire on the opposite bank. I make a song that doesn't give in to power."
It's not just sadness, it's not just sharing suffering and pain. Here is a real song that can't be done with beautiful things.
This song, made in 2022, is undoubtedly an anti-war song of this era.
