UNISON SQUARE GARDEN, known for their one-of-a-kind expressiveness and richly emotive vocals, have won widespread popularity.

Their song “Ryūsei no Squall” carries a hint of melancholy—an unusual tone for UNISON SQUARE GARDEN.

Just from the sound alone, you can picture the scene of a shooting star streaking across the sky.

Be sure to pay attention to vocalist Kosuke Saito’s gentle delivery, a departure from his usual shouts.

It was chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime Fate/Grand Order – Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia.

As if we’d all been waiting for it, it’s a track where UNISON SQUARE GARDEN’s signature rock sound really stands out.

The coolness of “UNISON” doesn’t let up for a moment.

Once you hear it, you’ll feel a surge of emotion that makes you want to break through conventions and live freely.

This is UNISON SQUARE GARDEN’s second single.

It’s an irresistible track with a razor-sharp rock sound.

In the music video, the youthful appearances of the three members are striking.

Somehow, this song conveys the struggles and defiance that come with that youth.

It feels like it has a flavor they could only produce at that time.

The overall tone is very bright, bright enough to blow away your worries.

Since 2015, I feel like UNISON SQUARE GARDEN has had many songs that share happiness with listeners.

“Invisible Sensation” is one of those tracks.

Its rhythm makes you want to dance, offering a charm that’s different from hard rock.

It was also used as the opening theme for the TV anime Welcome to the Ballroom, adding color to the world of the show.

Starting to sing at full throttle with no intro, “Counter Identity” is a pretty intense track, and the breakneck speed of the chorus makes it irresistibly cool.

The lyrics are richly nuanced and a bit cryptic.

Still, there are many striking parts—lyrics you’ll want to absorb and interpret in your own way.

It was selected as the ending theme for the Japanese version of the overseas drama The Last Ship.

This song is a harder-edged rock track that everyone’s been waiting for—“The Unison.” Now, let’s lose ourselves and go wild.

The lyrics of this song are also difficult to interpret.

I think they can be understood in many different ways.
