I suspect the key to getting what MISA's doing on the bridge is to take it as all one piece, not two as people (understandably) keep hearing it - and it's not even so much a solo _per se_ as a call-and-response between MISA and the vocalists. Which as Champ notes, is also a set-up to transition into the guitar solo.

In an interview with a Japanese magazine about this song and the EP album, Miku answered, "Kanami creates the foundation for the songs, but I think the stress from the COVID-19 disaster was tremendous." Saiki said, "I didn't say anything at the time, but later on, when I said, 'You don't always put in a guitar solo like this,' Kanami said, 'It's true~ I was feeling uneasy♡'. It seems that I have been playing more and more.

Akane's drumming is my favorite part in this song, the song is super catchy, but Kanami's shredding style with jumps and scales I think have been used a few times already. I also get the feeling that the intro is similar to without holding back. I love Kanami's riffs in this than the solo, and goes with Misa's in my personal opinion. I can see why you love this song though, it has a little k-pop flavour every now and then.

Hi Champ, great reaction. I love your breakdown of all the parts. I also feel the progressiveness of this song, and even more on other songs from the EP Unleash. Saiki long note, then Miku one octave over Saiki for the same length, epic. Miku can reach very high notes, higher than Saiki, when they sing together they do amazing things. This is a great song. Have you done the instrumental "from now on"?

Nice. I agree with pretty much everything you say. My only complaint is that the vocals dominated the mix a bit too much in the first half. Even MISA had less presence than usual at the start. They didn't completely lose Kanami in the mix during the verses but I still shifted the balance a little to the right and it sounded better. After that, this got into my top 25% Band Maid. Maybe higher after I listen more. I bet live with a raw mix and feel this is gonna be a smoker. It'll give Miku a workout.

FYI Miku often doubles Saiki an octave above - eg in "Different" at 0:30 in the second part of the verse. While they both have an excellent range, Saiki's is much lower than Miku's. Excellent review and helpful to point out things I missed. This one will need several listens - like all really good prog rock.

I'll start this by just saying I'm not a musician and i've listened to this song multiple times, i like what i'm hearing instrumentally but the lyrics/phrasing is kind of killing the song for me and feels super generic especially parts like Hunky-dory day. There's places like you said where everyone feels like they're doing something on their own, and usually that meshed well and i liked it in other songs but in this song it feels a little too harsh. Maybe it'll grow on me like every song of theirs does but this song just feels off to me, like instead of 2-3 songs or ideas meshed well together into one song it feels like 4-5? Also breaking up the bass solo with the line Focus on buzz, feels awful to me but i'm sure that's on purpose since it's not like they're bad musicians. EDIT: I've listened to the song a few more times and i get the lyrics better now and most of the phrasing, no surprise there. 2nd EDIT: Wow this album is something after playing it multiple times with good headphones and a better source for quality.

Nice to see them on the set of every other 70s Doctor Who episode (that's for the old nerds like me). This is Akane's song for me. Akane loves triplets. Well, they all do, honestly. But Akane loves to vary her speeds as well, and in this one she's dropping the slow triplets across multiple beats in these random spots. MISA's solo is every bit as much Akane an solo behind her. Akane's finding a way to go OFF while still supporting what MISA's doing. Then she throws me for a loop coming back in from the quiet chorus (call back to Freedom anyone?) with... I dont' know how to describe it. A "fast half-time?" F man. Unreal player. I will say I'd REALLY like to take that high pass filter away from Kanami so her guitar could sound like a guitar again.

Dammit!!!. Akane's opening roll reminds me of a song from a hair metal band from the late 80's early 90's. I LOVE this band. MISA is coming the rhythm section again. Akane's fill during MISA's solo was flat out AWESOME. That sounds like an organ. Did Saiki even breathe? The combination of both of their voices makes the sound much more full. And the first verse is very scrambled. Then it mellows as it goes.
