Description
[Machine Translation] Season 2 of "In My Shoes" is a work that takes us into the fantasy world of "In My Shoes" from a bird's eye view. It is a concept album that is like a collection of short films with human drama, love story, horror, suspense, and science fiction. A person's life is like a movie (excerpt from WEEKEND). A person's life is like a movie ("WEEKEND" excerpt), a comedy where people just live their lives in front of them. The sad and painful things ("MOON CHILD"), the happy times ("SPACEBOY", "GOODTIME"), the conflicts of the heart ("BREAK MY SHADOW", "NEW BALANCE") are always serious for the person who is living them, but funny to the observer. The title of this album, "COMEDY," is meaningful to Salu, who says, "Sometimes I push myself too hard and stoop to stoicism. SALU, who sometimes pushes himself to think stoically, compares himself to a comedian ("COMEDY") or a painkiller ("PAINKILLER") and tries to convey with humor and wit the anguish, sorrow, and joy of his destiny as a lyricist. This film is a guidepost for young people living in today's world. Even today's times of uncertainty are beautifully transformed by SALU's poetic sentiment.

Description in Japanese
COMEDY / SALU
『In My Shoes』のシーズン2ともいえる本作は、『In My Shoes』で描いた俯瞰で見た幻想の世界の中に入ることで描かれた作品。例えるなら、ヒューマンドラマあり、ラブストーリーあり、ホラーあり、サスペンスあり、SFありの短篇映画集のような、コンセプトアルバムになった。「人の一生はまるで一本の映画のよう (「WEEKEND」抜粋)。人が目の前の生活をただひたすらに生きる様はまるでコメディ。辛く悲しいこと (「MOON CHILD」)、幸せな時間 (「SPACEBOY」、「GOODTIME」)、心の葛藤 (「BREAK MY SHADOW」、「NEW BALANCE」)などは、当人にとってはいつでも真剣だが、他人から観測すれば面白く可笑しい。」と語るSALUが、今作のアルバムタイトルを『COMEDY』と名付けたことは意味深い。時には自分を追い込んでストイックに物事を考える性分であるSALUが、そんな自分をコメディアン (「COMEDY」)や鎮痛剤 (「PAINKILLER」)になぞらえ、リリシストとしての宿命を背負う苦悩や悲哀、喜びをユーモアとウィットをもって伝えようとしているように感じられる本作はいまを生きる若者の気持ちを代弁し、その道標になる。不安に揺れる今の時代でさえ、SALUの詩情にくるまれて、美しく変容する。
