Byakko is one of the four gods. It's been 20 years since this song, which also means Byakkotai, was first completed and recorded. The arrangement has been changed many times, and it was the most exciting song at live performances. This song is like a combination of several songs, and in its final form, Nao's new talent, YUKIYOSHI's past experiences, and Aki's feelings - all of these were thrown into this song.
In particular, the section in the middle of the song was created by Nao's new talent, YUKIYOSHI brought a new arrangement technique that he had never tried before, and he was immersed in the production, and the members say that they will bring this to the new arrangement and create a unique atmosphere in future Scene of Heaven songs.
Aki will also release Byakko as a solo artist, which is also refreshing and strong, and was created together with YUKIYOSHI.
The cover photo was produced by Keika as usual, and depicts the meaning of the White Tiger and the Byakkotai. If you take a close-up look at the White Tiger's face, you can see that it is drawn in detail and delicately, expressing the feelings towards the White Tiger.
The guitar is also produced by Kiritaka, as always by Scene. He also blends into the YUKIYOSHI sound more intensely and elegantly than ever before, and is an essential presence in creating the power.
The Jurokubashi bridge depicted in the cover photo is based on the Jurokubashi bridge that was released when Scene of Heaven was active on a major label, but this is a real bridge at Lake Inawashiro in Fukushima Prefecture. Producer Kuruzumi Takahiko and Scene have strong feelings for Fukushima, and asked Keika to express this, and the moon, which is no exaggeration to say is the symbol of Scene of Heaven, is also depicted.
The song that was created through the ideas and overall direction of producer Takahiko Kuruzumi, the music production of YUKIYOSHI as sound producer, Nao's new talent, Aki's amazing performance skills, and the cooperation of all the staff was like music evoking the fictional god, Byakko.
