TsuShiMaMiRe celebrates its 27th year since formation. Having experienced numerous world tours, what they want to convey is "OVER SIZED AMERICAN DREAMS." 
Their very first tour was in America. While being greeted with great cheers in a new land, they deeply felt that the heavy luggage they carried was both a burden and something incredibly important-something they had to continue carrying. They still hold onto those feelings from back then, and finally, they turned them into a song. 
The "luggage" here refers not only to the physical baggage one takes on a journey but also symbolizes relationships between people and the thoughts and feelings of others in life. 
This song encapsulates the sadness and sorrow they have experienced, as well as their ability to turn that into laughter-truly a core expression of TsuShiMaMiRe. 
With a lively rhythm, a cool melody that shifts key multiple times, and a tone that exudes sincerity through its cynical expressions, the song features lyrics that strike at the heart, especially with the repeated chant of "ONIMOTSUDA." Once this song enters your ears, it will flow into your mind and body, carrying you to every corner of your being, and ultimately, your entire self will be dominated by this music.

Artist Profile

TsuShiMaMiRe
TsuShiMaMiRe are a legendary Japanese Girls Rock Trio formed in 1999 featuring Mari (lead vocals, guitar), Yayoi (bass, bv), and Asami (drums, bv). TsuShiMaMiRe's musical style ranges from hardcore noise to introspective indie rock, with traces of heavy funk disco and pop sentimentality. Mari's quirky lyrics question social conventions and the anxieties of everyday life, rebellion, and love. Her vocals excel in melodic expressivity, ranging from child-like wonder to tragic despair. Yayoi's groove is like that of a vengeful banshee in the throes of passion, suddenly pivoting from the stoic determination of a samurai in battle to the elegance and light-heartedness of a Japanese house cat. Asami is the newest member of TsuShiMaMiRe, replacing Maiko on drums. Her technical versatility and power will add a new dimension to the songs! These girls never stop winning over the audiences with each passing show, spreading intense emotions and raw energy via thousands of live performances, 19 USA and 7 European tours, and 23 full-length album releases. Their music has been featured on TV, film, animation, and video games. The ferocity of these three warrior princesses culminates in a live show that is simultaneously upliftingly theatrical and brutally honest. Tsushimamire is adored by heavy rock fans and all lovers of Japanese indie subculture! Don't miss the chance to see them, it will change your life.
