・Overview & Author’s personal opinion
Formed in 2003 with Shutoku Mukai, formerly of Number Girl, at the center.
The members’ strong personalities clash with each other, and the freaky sound that emerges from this clash continues to evolve with each album.
The band’s self-styled hip-hop with no hesitation, chillingly strong beats, and steel-like funk strumming cut the listener in two with a single stroke.
Rhythm, rhythm, rhythm!
Rhythm anyway!
Cool guitar riffs!
I love it!

Honnoji Waiting at Honnoji Waiting at Honnoji for ever and ever and ever TAXI Go to the woods. They're waiting for me TAXI, go to the woods A series of bones scattered in a graveyard A very long history of swimming Waiting in line for pork miso soup at a soup kitchen The arrival of the UFO How many years until the next one comes 10 years ago Collapse of the time line The next one will come in 100 years Until then, I'm waiting. Waiting at Honnoji... Stooping over, looking at the microcosm on the balcony standing on my head and looking up to the heavens exhaling the fumes of my cigarettes the neon sign of a pharmaceutical company disappears at 10 p.m. a helicopter still circling at the stroke of midnight the flashing red lights of processing trucks that have crashed into on-street parking The street lights on the national highway turn orange The flutter of summer insects gathering Night begins I begin to ask questions I talk openly to myself The night begins Waiting for me at Honnoji... Life Life in the water Life in the cold water Waiting at Honnoji... Waiting at Honnoji, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting... Waiting at Honnoji...
RIFF MAN Rising Inferiority Drifting emotions The real image of oneself that emerges a soundscape that beats and riffs a collection of riffs and riffs Emotions drifting adrift in a torrent searching for the true nature of the impulse coming to the surface the true nature of impulse the inferiority complex rises up and the real image of oneself emerges in the audiovisual room of my brain pa,pa,pa,pa all kinds of things come out of my head shadows and images in my eyeballs a hazy feeling that I recall momentarily Shadows and images that come to the surface Shadows and images rising dragon leaping out of the shadows Rising dragon Rising dragon Ascending Dragon Self-consciousness defense shattered Shooting a point, now clearly visible sound field the real image of oneself appearing in the inner field of the brain world the ascending dragon that pops out Riffs and riffs that beat Rising dragon leaping out of your ears Rising dragons leaping out of your ears Rising dragons popping out of my ears
