Yamiyo no Dance

[Machine Translation] Hirotaka Sennen has been strumming his guitar and screaming by himself to express himself. His long-awaited new album "Dance of the Dark Night" will be released on October 28, 2009. The album, which took about a year to make, consists of popular songs such as "Dance of the Dark Night," which has become a standard at his live performances, and "Hide and Seek," which describes his feelings toward his parents when he was a child. The blues, jazz, rock, and other diverse elements scattered throughout the album give the album a new sound in Japanese rock and pop music. A dance in the dark night, presented to the world's complacency. When you finish listening to it all, you will be captivated by a new hero. Dance of the Dark Night" is one of Hirotaka Chitose's most popular songs, which he has sung at every live performance since its completion. It is a song that describes Chitose's own inner life, and many people today may find themselves drawn to the lyrics of this song. When he was a child, he hid in a closet to surprise his parents when they came home from work, but he got scared and started crying. How will this work, which depicts such a millennial experience, resonate in an age where co-workers are the norm?

自分自身を表現するため、独りでギターを掻き鳴らし叫び続けてきた千年弘高。そんな彼の待望の新作『闇夜のダンス』が、ついに2009年10月28日に発表される。約1年がかりで制作された今作は、ライブで定番の『闇夜のダンス』や、幼い頃の親への想いを描いた『かくれんぼ』など、人気の高い楽曲で構成された。随所に散りばめられたブルース/ジャズ/ロックなどの多彩な要素が、日本語ロックやポップスにおける新たなサウンドを感じさせる仕上がりとなっている。世の中の独りよがりに贈る、闇夜のダンス。その総てを聴き終えたとき、僕らは新たなヒーローの虜になるだろう。 『闇夜のダンス』・・・完成してから、ライブで必ず唄っている千年弘高の代表曲。千年自身の内面を描いた歌だが、この歌詞に自分自身を重ね合わせる現代人は多いのではないだろうか。『かくれんぼ』・・・「もういいかい って聞こえない まだだよって 言えないじゃんか 」子供の頃、仕事から帰って来る親を驚かせようと押入れに隠れてたら怖くなって泣き出した。そんな千年の経験を描いたこの作品は、共働きが当たり前の時代にどう響くのか。これまで、ファンからのCD化の要望が一番高かった歌である。Guitar:田中一樹、Bass:西島健司(ex.Space☆Age)、Drums:中島道博(ex.Space☆Age)、Keybord&Programming:堀 豊
