This album is the result of a collaboration with various bands in Japan and abroad, which has convinced us that the band has deepened and deepened even further.
The white noise and glittering guitar riffs create a beautiful and noble atmosphere, as the band says, expressing the fragility of searching for a ray of light while shutting oneself away in the cold and faded days.
While retaining the “roaring shoegaze” sound that Kuyuuru has always had, the decadent and sacred worldview has been further refined to create a sound that boasts a unique presence.
Ayana Orito's (Gt./Vo.) somewhat fragile and forlorn voice, so delicate that it could be broken if touched, envelops the entire band as if seeking the slightest bit of salvation, and beautifully envelops them like a hymn.
The band's sound is a drastic change from the previous Kuyuuru sound. Instead of the roar of the instrumentalists dominating the entire sound to the point where the vocals are almost inaudible, the band's sound freely flies around as if adding color, light, and scenery to the worldview spreading from the vocals at the center of the sound.
Their music, which has been sounding heavy shoegaze since the beginning of their activities, has been further refined, transcending shoegaze as a singular genre and becoming alternative, hardcore, and even pop.
The result is a masterpiece that allows the listener to fully experience the world of the lyrics, which are poignant and poetic.
