Among the flow

[Machine Translation] The band is a 4-piece instrumental rock band consisting of 2 guitarists, a bass player, and a drummer. The sound of the band is the music of the soul, which is not bound by any genre, and which stoically faces the sound from each individual background. The songs are precisely constructed with pleasant melodies coming from somewhere, but they also have a humanistic warmth that attracts sound lovers from all over the world. With their live performance and sophisticated and comfortable sound, they have appeared at outdoor festivals such as Asagiri JAM and TAICOCLUB, and in 2013, they performed as the last performer on the eve of FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL, and the venue was filled with enthusiasm. In December 2013, they released their new album "DISCUSS". The sequel "Among the flow" will be released on October 1, 2014, and will be accompanied by a one-man tour. Among the flow" is the second part of a two-part work, which is a more natural version of "One song per person" after the production of "DISCUSS", which was based on the theme of "One song per person". Each member of the group naturally took the initiative in creating their own songs, allowing them to create more freely, and the members say that this is their most personal work to date. Among the flow" is a work that "drifts" rather than being swallowed up or going against the flow, as the title suggests. The album has a perfect balance of rhythmic play and melody, and a wide range of songs are available. One way to enjoy listening to "Among the flow" is to listen to both "Discuss" and "Among the flow" in total.
