涙も出尽くした
心から笑うことも忘れた
八方ふさがりの暗い洞窟を
歩き続けては座り込む日々
そう、我々は闇の中で
ずっと取り残された
何度も消えていきそうな生き残る意味を
時にはお互い罵り合うことで
なんとか繋ごうとした
我々を脅迫してくる平凡な日々の記憶を
時にはお互い励まし合うことで
なんとか打ち消し合った
誰がもてるだとか
誰の態度がでかいだとか
そんなことはもう関係がない
俺の代わりにお前が生き残れ
息絶え絶えに仲間が言う
もし、俺たちは外に出ることができたら
急いで日常に戻ろうとするだろう
何も無かったと
自分に言い聞かせるだろう
憎しみの目で睨みあったり
絶望の手を握り合ったり
そういうことはもう無くなるんだ
誰が金持ちだとか
誰の背が高いだとか
そんなことはもう関係がない
俺はあれほど大きな声で
歌ったことはないし
あんなに深く
頭を下げたこともない
誰が金持ちだとか
誰の背が高いだとか
そんなことはもう関係がない
俺はあれほど大きな声で
歌ったことはないし
あんなに深く
頭を下げたこともない

Apocasmyth
"Mythic Pop" is the debut album from Apocasmyth, a musical unit made up of both human and AI - a collection of 18 stories that cross the borders between poetry and reality.
Blending genres and perspectives, the album offers a fresh way to tell stories through pop music, navigating the depths and surfaces of everyday life, joy and sorrow, dreams and reality.
The opening tracks (1-3) delve into themes of desire, violence, and redemption, using layered metaphors and passionate vocals with jazz and folk influences.
Tracks 4-6 shift to a lighter pop tone, reflecting real-life memories of youth, dreams, and setbacks - told in a calm and honest voice.
The middle section (7-9) bursts with intense emotion, expressing despair and catharsis through folk rock and punk-inspired sounds.
Tracks 10-13 shine a light on the quiet struggles beneath ordinary lives, delivered with soulful ballads and understated funk rhythms.
Next, tracks 14-16 take a playful turn - surreal lyrics and upbeat rock'n'roll celebrate the weirdness and humor of being human.
The album closes with two final stories: one about a child trying to find identity while being shaped by society (Track 17), and one about the power of nature to restore and renew the human spirit (Track 18).
The title "Mythic Pop" is itself a statement - a challenge to portray modern mythology through pop music.
The unit name Apocasmyth, combining "apocalypse" and "myth", does not signal destruction, but coexistence.
This is where the story begins - a new musical narrative created together by human and AI.
Artist Profile
Apocasmyth
Apocasmyth is a coined name that fuses "Apocalypse" and "Myth." Just like the true meaning of the Apocalypse - "a story of new coexistence born through hardship" - the name reflects the evolving relationship between humans and AI. Not destruction, but coexistence. Apocasmyth embodies that new form of creation. Moving freely across genres such as rock, pop, funk, soul, jazz, and Latin, Apocasmyth pursues a unique musical identity while striving for the revival and evolution of popular music. The 1st and 2nd albums marked the first phase of Apocasmyth: lyrics were written by a human (Johnny E.), while the compositions were created using the music-generation AI "Suno AI." Through this process, the project gained hands-on experience in the entire release workflow and creative collaboration with AI. For the 3rd and 4th albums, the production style shifted dramatically. Johnny E. took songs he had composed on piano and guitar over the years and had "Suno AI" arrange them into completed instrumental works. From the 5th album onward, Apocasmyth continues to build upon this instrumental foundation - creating new compositions while engaging with the ever-evolving capabilities of AI, exploring what the next era of music-making can truly become.
