Hit Me, ThunderSuchmos

Hit Me, Thunder (Live at YOKOHAMA STADIUM 2019.09.08)
Hit Me, ThunderSuchmos

A majestic blues rock number running a full eight and a half minutes, included on the March 2019 album THE ANYMAL.

Its overwhelming presence in live performances has become a hot topic among fans, and the thunderclap-like impact at the Yokohama Stadium show is the stuff of legend.

The song is said to have sprung from YONCE’s genuine belief that “even if we can’t understand each other, there’s meaning in being together.” Rather than demanding perfect understanding, the lyrics simply affirm the other person’s existence, gently embracing hearts tired from complicated human relationships.

It’s the kind of track that, when you listen to it alone on a quiet night, might just fill you with energy for tomorrow.
