\u300cRecording information\u300d<\/p>\n
As recording starts next week, I’m busy with preparations: I’ll have to write the lyrics to more than 10 songs. I’m just taking it easy even though I’m running out of time. Working hard while taking it easy. For those 10+ tracks, I have to write the lyrics while also doing the guitar parts, remembering the songs, matching them all together with the band… writing that down now, the situation looks to be pretty grim if I’m not prepared.<\/p>\n
The album we’re making now (release date TBA!) will be our 4th. As we’ve made it to this point, there’s something I’ve gradually learned. I’ve realized I need to try and take it easy and relax, especially when I should be in a serious, frantic work mode. If I don’t, both my spirit and body stiffen up completely and I stop relying on the others in the group. I’m in a band — I’m not alone. If I’m busy occupied with my own pain, I won’t be able to notice if the others are suffering. That’s why I have to take it easy. Occasionally, someone will get angry. Understandable. There are times when someone will go too far about something trivial and stupid. Can’t be helped. What’s important is how you take it from there. I suggest the following. As you know, our society’s all about taking exams and tests and bachelor’s degree thesises. For adults, it’s, umm, the year-end tax adjustments. On top of that to make matters even worse, it’s chillingly cold throughout Japan. Let’s all take it easy together, and after we’ve completed the album in our relaxed fashion, please listen to it. I’d guess that by then it’ll surely be warm outside, so much so that I can’t even imagine it now.<\/p>\n
Well then. We’ll do our best\uff5e (while taking it easy)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
