Soon, THE OMNIGOD will be released
At long last, after we had finished seven shows of the ONEMAN tour, the tour final will take place on the 19th December at Ebisu LIQUIDROOM.
As the tour moves on, a lot of feelings constantly keep going through my mind, but I think that it would be best if I write about my sentiments after the very last show at the tour final.
Moreover, only a week left and our 2nd album THE OMNIGOD will go on sale.
With regard to this album, a lot about our thoughts and about its concept has been said and talked about in interviews in magazines as well as on the internet. Since I think that there still are also a lot of people who haven’t yet had a chance to read through those interviews, I’d like you to, while you read what we had to say about it, compare it with your own impressions you had while listening to it.
Even so, since it’s a product that hasn’t been released yet, I think it’s quite difficult to actually talk about impressions at the time being. That’s why, after THE OMNIGOD has been released and you can actually listen to it, I think it’d be best if you read through the interviews once again while you listen to it.
The final is also going to take place two days after the album will have gone on sale! Listen to it well and then rampage as well as you can.
Oh, before you rampage, I have one more thing to say…
Since it suddenly got really cold, it’s important to keep your body in good shape (for it to be able to endure this cold weather)! You will get absolutely nothing out of the concert if you look forward to it and then end up catching a cold on that day, making it impossible for you to come.
Let’s clash all of our bodies and souls together in top form!
Even if you’re wheezing and panting because you’re out of breath, get yourself together and endure!
So that at long last, we members on stage can see and receive all of your smiling faces.
Please come to our show with the highest abusive* power!
*abusive not really meant in a “let’s abuse everyone in the live hall” kind of way, but rather a call for letting out one’s all during the show

29.11. TSUTAYA O-EAST
29.11. TSUTAYA O-EAST
We had a concert in O-EAST yesterday.
Watching you all, you who are all high spirited from the stage is, after all, surely the best part.
It was an event where different bands, one not similar to the other in terms of charming their audience, gathered together to perform for you, the audience.
As for me personally, I was really impressed with Mitsu‘s (v[NEU]) singing voice.
The powerful voice piercing right through the heart was really hot.
I can’t put into words this feeling that I had, but I think once you hear for yourself the power with which he fills his songs, you will definitely under stand.
One says that music has the power to change something, and sure enough, it’s true.
It’s because I felt and experienced it yesterday for myself.
We might be different in terms of our music styles, where the system I use is completely different, with me often using the so called “shout”.
However, as we both use our voices for singing, it turns out that it’s not that different after all.
As such, I don’t think it’s like there are a lot of people who are familiar with this type of music (Nokubura’s type of music), so there are also some who say it sounds a bit harsh. Of course I think it is up to person whether he or she likes it or not and denying their opinion is not something I would want to do.
But, this is my style.
With this, if I would deny it (my style), it may be so that I would reject the whole world and this is not something I want and think is necessary.
Therefore I want to continue screaming and never stop and if I can give many people pleasure by doing so, I want to keep on doing so till I die.
I want my singing voice too, just as hot as Mitsu’s, to leave an impression on/reach the heart of somebody.
I had this feeling that this was the day where I was able to harvest/gather important things and experiences for the future.
Though it’s only natural, there are still a lot of other greater people in the world.
My life as a singer was based on the fact that, throughout my whole life, I was confronted with restless situations and disappointments, yet these also helped me grow.
I also encountered countless painful experiences and failures.
But each time, regardless of the painful experiences I have, I struggle to move forward.
From this moment on and for the time to come, I’ll be alright.
Regardless of all this weight on my back and regardless of my continued struggle, I still will be eagerly anticipating each of our performances so I can hear your shouts of joy - so you just have to come and rock your souls out.
Moving forward, always moving forward.
That’s how I will continue with my life.
Just a while back, I got a year older and that day was truly wonderful, and for the things I got, I am truly thankful.
Moreover, I am thankful for all the people I could meet this year.
