Composed and arranged by Masayuki Nakano, its calm atmosphere and dynamically shifting structure create a compelling interplay of stillness and motion.

XAI’s vocals in the track evoke a divine image that fits the song’s mood perfectly.

In particular, her role as the theme song performer for the Godzilla trilogy speaks to her extraordinary talent, making this a work where you can fully appreciate XAI’s unique appeal as an artist.

The anxiety-stirring guitar arpeggios and memorable rhythm section capture listeners’ hearts in “Shinsoku ~lose control~.” It’s a track L’Arc~en~Ciel wrote specifically for the film GODZILLA.

While the lyrics distill a dark worldview, the melodies are crafted to stick in your ear.
