京都を中心に活動するバンドOLIVESの2枚目となるシングル。
両曲ともすでにライブでも演奏されていて、ファンや音楽関係者の中でも評価の高い2曲が待望の音源化。彼らの楽曲はジャンルの枠に囚われない様々なものがあるが、常にJ-POPらしさをイメージして作られていて誰にも媚びていないのに聞き馴染みが良い。
また自身の体験を元にしてでしか歌詞を書かないというVo.橋田理のこだわりから生まれる言葉の並びは、時には聴く人を選ぶかも知れないが、一度体の中に入ってしまえば中々抜け出すことはないだろう。
中でも「方舟」はリスナーに寄り添う様な仕上がりになっていて、人間関係や自分らしさに迷っている人や、人生と言う旅を歩き続ける多くの人の心に届くことだろう。

Artist Profile

  • OLIVES

    The band OLIVES has many characteristics, such as a unique beautiful voice, original and sometimes destructive developments, and avant-garde yet somehow nostalgic melodies. Most of the songs aren't upbeat, but they have an excellent sense of melody and are rather catchy. Vocalist Osamu Hashida, who is in charge of songwriting, is influenced by GRAPEVINE and Mr.Children, and his work strongly reflects elements of UK alternative music such as Radiohead and U2. Also, the poems Hashida writes are not about someone else's or his experiences, but about his own life in a vivid and naked way. Also, the poems Hashida writes are not about someone else's or his experiences, but about his own life in a vivid and naked way. However, he is also a normal human being, and I think many people can empathize with the emotions that anyone can experience. This is a must-listen band for not only alternative fans, but also shoegaze, grunge, and J-Pop fans.
