Created remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic by exchanging data, THE BACK HORN’s song “Ruri-iro no Canvas” also came with the backdrop that, just as vocalist Yamada returned after having a polyp removed and the band was ready to move forward, they were forced to suspend activities due to the spread of the coronavirus.
