マリオ (Mario Menti)I really like this - 怪物 (kaibutsu, "monster") from the new album (with the same name) by 黒岩あすか (Asuka Kuroiwa).
It starts with a simple repetitive piano melody and almost whispered spoken vocals, but halfway through slowly becomes louder and more intense with noisy drums and distorted guitar.
「呪いをかけて、わたしに呪いを。
呪いを解いて、怪物になる前に。」
“Cast a curse, cast a curse on me.
Break the curse, before I become a monster.”
She was quoted somewhere saying this about the album:
とても怖い怪物に変化してしまうこともあれば、 自分で良い呪いをかけて、とても優しい怪物に変化することもできると思う。 どう捉えるかは人それぞれ、わたしは優しい怪物になりたい。だから「怪物」というアルバムを作りました。
Sometimes, we might turn into very scary monsters, but I believe we can also cast a good curse on ourselves and transform into very kind monsters. How we perceive it depends on the person. I want to become a kind monster. That's why I created the album "Monster."
Wanting to become a kind monster seems like a good life goal to me 😅.
