解く荷物 絵描きの苦痛
口ずさむ沈黙と 手と手の工夫
熱が通る 肌が触れずに
香る 静と動
シミが濃く膿んで成る
身が奮う
はにかみ座っていた
あそこは彼の宇宙
君は Gone and tuned
君と Gone and tuned
かいた寝息の
まにまにクラっていた
あの日にまだ夢中
彼方へ Drowse and doze
そのまま Drowse and doze
また Morning call
きっとこのまま忘れ
人混みに流れてくの
裸になる恐れが
今更湧くこの頃に
熱が通る
肌が触れた
香る 生 鼓動
シミが濃く膿んで成る
気が狂う
はにかみ座っていた
あそこは彼の宇宙
君は Gone and tuned
君と Gone and tuned
かいた寝息の
まにまに火照っていた
あの日の真鍮
君へ La La La La La La La
LOVING CALL!

DOTE
the za
Formed in Hakodate, Hokkaido, the band theza releases their first EP, "impact", shaking up the scene with a presence all their own.
The EP features seven tracks - "Intoro" "warapiko" "Imp" "Don't stop, youknow" "DO NOT RUSH" "mejika no samba" and "DOTE" - each carrying a distinct impulse and aesthetic, yet collectively expressing the sharp edges and intentional stillness at the core of the band's sound.
These songs are a vivid reflection of theza's wide musical spectrum and raw sensibility.
While drawing influence from alternative rock, post-punk, R&B, and hip-hop, their music is far from derivative. Instead, each track is a reimagining of those inspirations through the unique sensibilities of the members, resulting in a minimalist yet deeply emotional sonic landscape.
This EP marks a threshold between theza's "now" and what lies ahead.
Their music lives in the in-between - between city and countryside, between reality and reverie - resonating within that beautifully ambiguous space.
