This track hits your ears out of nowhere with a ferocious sound, almost as if to declare that the lead of Ling tosite Sigure isn’t TK but me—PL Nakano—with TK and PL Nakano going head-to-head throughout.

Rin Toshite Shigure / Ling Tosite Sigure – Re:automation

Starting with a floating, atmospheric intro, this track features mechanically processed vocals, making it a highly distinctive piece.

Above all, I feel the vocals and guitar really stand out.

Of course, the rest of the band is excellent as well.

This track powerfully sings out an SOS message, depicting secrets, falsehoods, and the inner conflicts of the individual.

5 on the Oricon chart.

Ling Tosite Sigure - A Symmetry

Shigure’s “a symmetry” has a grand atmosphere.

The finely chopped hi-hats feel incredibly good.

What’s more, the section in the latter half where the China cymbal is hit repeatedly is exhilarating and absolutely fantastic.

I think drummers will find it very satisfying to try covering this song.
