This is a track included on the 3rd mini album, Triangle.

After releasing this album, dustbox returned to an indie label, and listening with that in mind makes the song deeply moving.

It feels a bit different from their usual style, yet it still retains dustbox’s essence—a wonderful song.

I rememberdustbox

This is a cover of a Skid Row song included on the mini-album “triangle.” At first it seems like an arrangement faithful to the original—a powerful, slow-moving ballad—but in true fashion, it unfolds into a sound brimming with speed.

It’s a track that’s even more interesting if you know the original.

Goodbye yellow brick roaddustbox

This is a cover of an Elton John song included on the single “4our Cherries.” The original is a gentle song with a relaxed tempo, but dustbox’s arrangement transforms it into something that feels powerful.

There’s also a sense of humor in how the tempo gradually shifts into dustbox’s characteristic speed at the beginning.

IN THE SWAY OF YOUR HEARTSdustbox

This is a track included on the first mini-album, “Sign To The Sun.” While the tempo is relaxed, the song is striking for its heavy timbre that conveys a powerful energy welling up from deep within.

Rather than rushing ahead on momentum, it has a vibe that speaks directly and deliberately to the listener.

This is a track included as the B-side to the memorable 1st single “Promise you.” It’s an impressive song with a sound that embodies the classic, high-speed drive of melodic punk.

The gradually accelerating tempo in the intro is also unique.
