The lyrics convey a will to believe firmly in oneself, to carve out the future as if in battle, and a fervent determination to stay true to love no matter the difficulties.
The album bearing this song’s title, VALENTI, was released in January 2003, debuting at No.

VedaThe Chorizo Vibes
The Chorizo Vibes, a four-piece band based in Sakai, Osaka, are drawing attention with a one-of-a-kind sound that skillfully fuses punk rock and ska.
Formed in 2009 and solidifying their current lineup in 2013 after member changes, the band has established a hybrid style centered on melodic punk while embracing diverse influences such as Latin and jazz.
The layered ensemble born from Ryohei Noguchi’s exceptional songwriting sense and Isamu Kando’s alternating guitar/sax performances sparks fervent reactions at every show.
They joined Ailet Records in 2014 and released their long-awaited first full-length album, “Jigoku no Heisei Rhapsody,” in 2018.
With a freewheeling musicality that lightly leaps over genre boundaries and a unique worldview inspired by motifs like kappas and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the band is a perfect fit for music fans drawn to distinctive crossover sounds.
Villainteniwoha
An expressive track that draws you into its downer mood.
Released in February 2020, this piece by Teniwoha features v_flower’s decadent vocal work that leaves a strong impression.
The sonic blend of a distinctive beat and guitar sounds is highly addictive, and the lyrics—centered on a transgender theme—cut deep into contemporary society.
