13.【I】
君のこと何も 全然知らないけれど
なぜだか ぼくは信じてる
この4人のことも 今日のフロアの人間も
全部 ぼくは 信じてる
2020年を 生きてるこの街のすべてを
ぼくは ほんとに愛してる
わかりあえない人と人
でも同じ月を見てるんだろう?
東京 信じてる
so many many cry before that rainbow
Everything will be well beyond the nights
何ニストじゃない ただの君とぼくとで
揺れる陽炎 九月のエレキ 言葉にできない日々の
この曲が、ぼくの遺書だよ
綺麗な詩をよんで ファンタジーに逃げこむのはもうやめた 現実は今ここだよ
戦いの日々よ 傷だらけのあなたよ
もう少し 戦いはつづくだろう
恥ずかしい この歌が いつか歌えなくなるようなボクらになったら
お願いだよ 殺して
ちゃんと笑えるだろう
ちゃんと笑うんだよ
そのために生まれてきたんだもの
so many many cry before that rainbow
Everything will be well beyond the nights
理屈じゃない 素晴らしい世界で
甲州街道 吹き抜けた風 混乱と生きた日々に
幸せになる それがレベルだよ

13. [ I ]
I don’t know anything about you at all
But somehow I believe in you
These four members and the guys in this venue today
I believe in all
2020, everything alive in this city
I really love them
Persons cannot understand each other
But everyone looks at the same moon, right?
Tokyo I believe in
so many many cry before that rainbow
Everything will be well beyond the nights
“something-ist” is not the point, just I and you
shimmering heat gaze electric guitar in September of the indescribable days
This song, the will of me
I quit escaping into fantasy by reading pretty poems The reality exists right here, right now
Days of conflict and you scarred
The struggle will last for a little bit more
It would be shameful that someday we become not able to sing this song
Please kill me
You should be able to smile
Smile sincerely
Because you are born for it
so many many cry before that rainbow
Everything will be well beyond the nights
On inexplicable wonderful world
The wind blowing through the Koshu Highway, to the bygone days with confusion
Being happy It’s the Rebellion

Floor-to-ceiling Boris ragers! It’s like they looked back on songs like Statement and Woman On the Screen and said “let’s do a whole album like that!” Most of these tracks don’t even pass 3 minutes! Zerkalo holds up the middle with some anguished doom.
In the end, *NO* is as strong and declarative as it’s title. Brian Parker
Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
Four speaker-melting singles from New York's premiere "live techno" outfit, descended from vintage synthwave, deep house, and dance punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 18, 2024
Off-kilter Portland indie rockers make an unexpected return with a tight three-track EP, their first new release in 12 years. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 18, 2024
Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know zacharypinkham
