Featured as the lead song on the album “Hinatazaka,” released in September 2020, it was also used in a Lawson campaign commercial.

Although not a single’s title track, it became widely known beyond the fanbase—performed even at the 71st NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen in December 2020.

The performance centered on Mirei Sasaki in the center position, along with the choreography that forms a “crush heart,” is especially charming.

UndergroundKakizaki Yūta

This is a single released in June 2024 by a home-recording singer-songwriter.

“Alternative” covers many styles, but this track is a stunning fusion of everyday language and the idiom of rock, resulting in a moving song.

In a brief runtime of about 2 minutes and 45 seconds, it races from a dark scene to an explosive chorus, making for a highly satisfying listen.

Perhaps it’s precisely because everything is done solo in a home-recording style that the room’s atmosphere and the raw, earnest feelings come through so directly—that’s the impression it gives.

If you’re looking for music to keep you company on a lonely night, this is a must-check.

Please enjoy the raw sensibility of Yuta Kakizaki.
