あのバンド (That band)

The song 'That band' by Kessoku Band seems to delve into the personal connection and emotional resonance that music can have on an individual. The lyrics suggest a deep and possibly troubled relationship with the music of 'that band,' which resonates with the listener in a way that is both painful and cathartic. The song opens with the music of 'that band' sounding like laughter to the listener, yet also comparable to the jarring noise of a train crossing, indicating a mix of emotions that the music evokes.

The chorus speaks of a desire to block out everything except for the music that the listener themselves is creating, suggesting a need for self-expression and perhaps a feeling of being overwhelmed by external influences. The music becomes a personal sanctuary, a place where the listener finds solace and a sense of identity amidst the dissonance and sadness of other songs. However, there is also a sense of isolation conveyed, with the music of 'that band' feeling like a cast to someone else, while the listener feels like they are constantly making mistakes.

The latter part of the song continues to emphasize the theme of solitude and personal struggle. The listener is depicted as the sole passenger ready to embark on a journey, with the departure bell ringing. The imagery of clapping hands and stamping feet until a distance is measured suggests a determination to continue despite loneliness. The song closes with the listener wanting to confirm the 'dead sound' in their heart, indicating a search for authenticity in their own voice amidst the noise of the world. The song, therefore, seems to be about the search for personal identity and the power of music to both challenge and heal us.
