about

One year after releasing their second EP, “Evergreen”, Tokyo-based five-piece Moon In June is back with their debut full-length effort ロマンと水色の街!

With nods to the likes of SPITZ, Galileo Galilei, Supercar, and Homecomings, Moon In June has packed the album with a sense of comfortable nostalgia, while also leaning into some up-tempo dreamy tunes a la DIIV, and even throwing in a homage to shoegaze legends Slowdive.

Drawing on musical influences and films, there’s a bittersweet tone to the lyrics, which dive into the theme of starting fresh following loss and regret. It’s an emotional work and a complete listening experience built by a collective songwriting effort that further builds on Moon In June’s already impressive catalog.

前作EP『evergreen』から約1年3ヵ月振りの新作はMoon In Juneの待望となるデビュー・アルバム！DIIVやスピッツらの影響を感じさせるノスタルジックなドリーム・ポップで紡がれた全12曲を収録!!

Moon In Juneは2018年に東京で結成され、近年は下北沢などでライヴを重ねながらも名古屋や札幌のイベントへ出演し精力的に活動してきましたが、そのエネルギーを1stアルバムの制作へ注ぎ込み待望のデビュー・アルバムがここに完成！

本作はヴォーカルのmiho以外のメンバーも作曲などへ参加しており、どの曲もタイプの異なる色とりどりな楽曲で構成されています。

スピッツやGalileo Galilei、スーパーカー、Homecomingsらを想起させる心地よいノスタルジーに包まれる「Robert」や「ロマンと水色の街」、「エレクトリックシューズ」、「十二月の放課後」を筆頭に、新機軸となる「Head for München」や「閃光少女」ではDIIVのような疾走感を伴ったオルタナティヴ・ロックを披露。「Slowdive」は9月に新作を発表したシューゲイザー・レジェンドのSlowdiveへの素直なオマージュ！

歌詞の内容も喪失や後悔からの再出発をイメージさせ、映画やスピッツの楽曲などからインスパイアされたと思しきワードが見え隠れし、ジャケットのイラストも含めて、その世界観を想像するのもまた楽しさのひとつとなっています。

everything is alive

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über. https://tortue.substack.com/i/140348114/slowdive-everything-is-alive-dead-oceans Daniel Welsch
