Day 13: in all weathers by SUKEKIYO // 8
drink: nuoc mat
Upon further investigation of the mesmerizing Dir En Grey, I came upon a side project of Kyo's, SUKEKIYO.
I was so drawn to Macabre (from a previous post) that I found a liking to this song by SUKEKIYO that's somewhat on the same spectrum. Kyo enlists his haunting vocal range to add color and emotion.
Here's a funny connection. From a personal perspective, the beginning reminds me of something a middle-aged Asian band would play at a wedding-from the distorted guitar arpeggios to the timbre of the distinct drum beat. It really reminds me of my dad. The vocal range used for this beginning section matches really well too. No doubt about it.
As for the rest of the song, the enthralling build-up, lead guitar work, and Kyo's stunning vocals of course, work together harmoniously to bring about an astounding experience. Although the material isn't as thought-provoking (especially when Kyo doesn't get into it) compared to Macabre, it truly isn't a fair comparison because the latter is simply a masterpiece.
