THE ONLY WAYBRAHMAN

THE ONLY WAYBRAHMAN

An aggressive, up-tempo track that often starts live with a nostalgic guitar phrase.

The intense chorus work intertwined with a rapid two-beat, followed by a divine pre-chorus and a sweeping, grand chorus, feels like it packs in everything rock has to offer.

CAUSATIONBRAHMAN

A single release and a track included on the 4th album “ANTINOMY.” From the clear, transparent intro to the two-beat punk sound and the gently sung chorus, this is where BRAHMAN’s new elements begin to take shape.

The music video, consisting almost entirely of performance scenes, is striking for its simplicity and coolness.

Truth, Goodness, and BeautyBRAHMAN

A song whose title alone conveys a powerful message, signifying the greatest value conceivable as a human ideal.

It opens the 7th album “Bonbai,” and its universal themes—life’s value and meaning, what we seek, and what we ought to accomplish—pierce the heart.

Shifting from clean guitar arpeggios to a fast, shuffle-driven groove, it hurls questions that resonate deeply.

In its brevity, the track condenses BRAHMAN’s worldview and musicality.

backlightBRAHMAN

Released as a single and included on the 4th album “ANTINOMY.” The lyrics are entirely in Japanese.

It’s an unconventional song where the chorus switches to 3/4 time, yet it carries a nostalgic feel—perfect for sunsets and, as the title suggests, backlighting.

It’s a track that vividly conjures up scenes as if you could reach out and touch them.

Stand AloofBRAHMAN

Released on February 6, 2008, ANTINOMY is BRAHMAN’s fourth album, which made a strong debut at No.

4 on the Oricon charts.

This track is the fourth song on the album.

A cool piece with lyrics entirely in English, it features an urban, modern guitar accompaniment that sounds incredibly stylish.

Bed Space RequiemBRAHMAN

Released on June 27, 2001, BRAHMAN’s second album, “A FORLORN HOPE.” This song is included as the final track.

With lyrics entirely in English, it sings of a sense of loneliness left behind.

A beautiful hardcore punk track with a catchy melody!
