This commercial promotes how Fuwari Kyogetsu leads to everyday relaxation, conveyed through Satomi Ishihara’s presence.

Here, she engages in a casual talk themed around daydreams, and you can feel the fun from the way she speaks clearly with a gentle smile.

The song that emphasizes the calm atmosphere of the footage is “Kyo, Kimi to,” sung by Masashi Yamada of THE BACK HORN.

The raspy vocals layered over the acoustic sound are striking, and together with the lyrics that seem to depict ordinary daily life, they create a warm feeling.

The single “With You,” released on October 19, 2016, is on the SPEEDSTAR RECORDS label.

It’s their first ballad since the single they put out in 2007, and it feels great as the piano from the intro is joined by guitar, bass, and drums.

It’s rare to hear the bass this prominently—and it sounds incredibly cool.

I’ve heard this song was made for the fans.

It definitely resonates with the heart, doesn’t it?

From their 25th single, released in 2017.

This song drew attention for being co-produced with Hikaru Utada.

While it has an atmosphere that sets it apart from THE BACK HORN’s previous work, it ultimately comes together as a track full of warmth, reminiscent of “Fuyu no Milk.”

Their 13th single.

Around this time, THE BACK HORN had begun to dial back the murky intensity and darkness of their early work and was gradually shifting toward a more pop, accessible sound.

This single—including this track—captures that vibe, coming across as crisp, refreshing, and cool.

Their 22nd single, released in 2014.

It’s a rare rap-style track for THE BACK HORN.

The way the words line up amid a swaying, ominous atmosphere gives a distinctly THE BACK HORN impression.

The surge in the chorus that unfolds from the dark tone of the first half is excellent, and you can see both the audience and the band enjoying it at live shows.

This is their major-label debut single, released on April 25, 2001.

It starts with a heavy intro, but once it moves into the first verse, it shifts to a ska-influenced, poppy feel.

However, when the chorus hits, it becomes intense again, revealing a glimpse of the “passion” that would become a key element in discussing The Back Horn’s future work.

The guitar solo is notable, but equally distinctive is the melodious bassline underneath it, showcasing the high skill level of bassist Mitsuhune Okamine, who was still a support member at the time.
