Masterpieces and popular songs by cinema staff

Graet Escapecinema staff

cinema staff “great escape” MV (TV anime “Attack on Titan” second cour ending theme)

The ending theme for episodes 14–25 in the latter half of the anime Attack on Titan, and cinema staff’s first tie-in song.

The striking start features a four-count on the drums leading into driving guitar.

The lyrics, filled with a resolve to blow off pent-up frustration and carve out one’s life, really hit home.

I think it’s a track packed with the coolness of contemporary rock.

YOUR SONGcinema staff

cinema staff「YOUR SONG」MV（「WAYPOINT E.P.」 lead track)

This is one of the lead tracks from the EP “WAYPOINT E.P.” released on October 28, 2015.

It’s a ballad that makes you feel positive when you listen to it.

The song has a gentle atmosphere, filled with pleasing arrangements.

I hope you’ll pay attention to the lyrics as well.

Name of Lovecinema staff

cinema staff「Name of Love」MV（Short ver.）

When it comes to rock bands from Gifu Prefecture, cinema staff is a name that always comes up.

Guitar-vocalist Mizuki Iida, guitarist Tomotaka Tsuji, and bassist Sohei Mishima are all from Gifu and reportedly high school classmates.

Back in 2004, the predecessor band centered around these three performed at the TEENS’ MUSIC FESTIVAL, drawing attention even then.

Their appeal lies in their quintessential guitar-rock catchiness and Iida’s evocative, wistful vocals.

Combined with their dramatic song structures, the more you listen, the more you’ll find yourself drawn into their world.

One of the lead tracks from the 5th album “eve.” It seems the end of “YOUR SONG,” which appears earlier on the album, connects directly to the beginning of this track.

The music video is set in a school, and the song evokes a strong sense of nostalgia.

The lead track from the E.P.

“Vektor E.P.” released on November 30, 2016.

The music video leaves a dreamlike impression with its beautiful red-and-blue contrast.

In contrast to the heavy, gritty sound, the vocals feature long tones and somewhat sustained melodic lines, which may also be reflected in the music video.
