BUCK-TICK – Guernica no Yoru – Sing along version

While attuned to the sound of the times yet never pandering, BUCK-TICK continues to create music brimming with originality from a solitary vantage point.

Their 21st studio album, No.0, released in 2018, includes the superb track Night of Guernica, distinguished by its melancholy waltz rhythm.

The lyrics, written by vocalist and lyricist Atsushi Sakurai and inspired by the film The Clock Was Live, which he saw at a cinema with his older brother in childhood, form a straightforward anti-war song that is nevertheless distinctly fable-like.

The dramatic development—especially the swell in the latter half—unfolds like a short film, a quality that seems very much indebted to its use of 3/4 time.
