On this, TBH did a wonderful job. Headphone children is every thing, jazzy, punk, metal, pop, and even reggae. My fav song is definitely "headphone children", with its melancholic notes and for its groovy beat. I've been a long time fan and I've never been disappointed by any of their release so far... TBH are just getting better and better each time, thanks to the new and great bassist (I just love his bass lines).

Description
"Headphone Children" describes the paradox of individuality in our modern society. The world has grown smaller in modern times through international travel and foreign exchange study programs. Yet, as foreign cultures become part of our everyday lives, we isolate ourselves by shutting ourselves in, have mental disorders, and commit abnormal crimes .. Our modern society eschews face-to-face communication in exchange for cell phones and email. The Back Horn members are a world of people engulfing ourselves in headphones or staring blankly at our cell phones. And they are the people that make the music you use to shut out this tempestuous world. This contradiction speaks wonders!! Now you no longer need to wait for the answers, The Back Horn has completed their greatest masterpiece, "Headphone Children." This limited edition comes with a DVD containing a promo clip to "Kiseki" (main theme to film "ZOO" based on the book by Otsuichi).

Awesome album by THE BACK HORN! Starts off strong with Tobira (the "Door") and continues through all 11 tracks to finish with Kiseki ("Miracle"). Even if you don't speak Japanese you can feel the melancholy, despair, and anger that are the focus of this story of today's society. Some tracks can get old, but 90% will get stuck in your head (and you'll be glad that they do). The promo clip for Kiseki is interesting, a little graphic at times, but overall it's good. An amazing rock album that tells it's story by making you feel the music.
