{"product_id":"4522197161433","title":"Hardnuts - Ark - Japan CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eCredits:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHardnuts\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHardnuts' first full-length album \"Ark\" is a concept work that depicts a sad yet beautiful story of two characters, \"I\" and \"Eve,\" based on M4 \"Kaitai\", M5 \"Kuukaku\", M11 \"Margins\" and M12 \"Ark\". Inspired by the story of \"Noah's Ark\" in the Old Testament, the song depicts their spiritual world and love through the motif of a \"room\" isolated from the outside world and a \"heavy rain\" that washes away everything. The song leaves it up to the listener to decide what is left in the end amidst the whirlwind of wishes and conflicts. The sound follows the influence of 90's-00's Japanese alternative music, while absorbing a wider variety of musical styles. For recording, the band uses a one-shot recording method, layering sounds but also capturing the raw breath of the music. The sound created with long-time trusted engineer Tomoaki Shimada not only traces the context of Japanese alternative music, but also sublimates it into a sound image unique to hardnuts. With an obsession with light and warmth at its core, this album condenses a wide range of fluctuating emotions into 12 songs. What will be the last thing that remains in your heart in the rapidly changing landscape?
