Tokeau

[Machine Translation] The most notable three-piece band from Fukuoka, "yoake" released their first full-length album "TOI" in 2017. They have further evolved through live performances in the Kanto, Kansai, and Kyushu regions, as well as their first independent project "TAWN vol.1" with Taiko Super Kicks, and this time they are dropping two singles, a superb negative pop song "Keke Au" and "Sazanami" with a twisted band sound. The song "Melt Away" is a J- and J-pop song. The sweet, J-POP-like melody and pessimistic lyrics of "Melt Away" are a paradigm-shifting masterpiece that presents a new way of thinking about pop songs. Sazanami" is a song that incorporates the skills and playfulness of the three members.

2017年に初のフルアルバム『TOI』をリリースした今最も注目すべき福岡のスリーピースバンド"よあけ (yoake)"。関東、関西、九州各地でのライブ活動、またTaiko Super Kicksを招いた初の自主企画『TAWN vol.1』などを経て更に進化した彼らが今回ドロップするのは極上のネガテイブポップソング「とけあう」とひねくれたバンドサウンドが光る「さざなみ」の2曲入りシングル。「とけあう」はJ-POPライクで甘美なメロディとペシミスティックな詞の世界観が新しいポップソングの在り方を提示する、パラダイムシフト的名曲。「さざなみ」はメンバー3人のプレイヤースキルと遊び心がふんだんに織り込まれた一曲。
