I can't get over this song that is so awesome I've heard it many times now

This is great, what nice destructive feel, but sounds edgy and fun

I'm definitely a fan this is some unique stuff

I was fine with eating the green strawberries until I found out they were actually leprechauns. Oh, what's the harm in eating a few more? Last time I held hands with vampire starlets they flew me to their nest of guts and tendrils where they fed me bad smelling breads. Then, the bell tolled. But I wasn't welcome in their churches anymore.

your sound gets me all excited! Love your song artwork choices too!

great sound and I dig that anger driven beat in your music!

From my new album "Fû": https://ariad.bandcamp.com/album/f
Any support on bandcamp is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

This little track has been created on the last day of 2022 and the first day of 2023. I wish everyone a beautiful new year, full of creativity, full of art, full of peace, full of love! I'm really happy currently, as I will start the year with a great travel to Australia. I look forward to meet Melbourne's soundclouders there. Soundcloud is a great community, so glad to be part of this! Let's continue to make music all together, to share, to collab, to create! Art is a conveyor of love. That crazy world needs it more than ever!!!

Edit 2023: I finally used a bird recording I took from the place I stayed in Australia. This way, this little track captures the rejoicing of that great travel and all the good memories as well.

My album Fû is centered about aerial elements and woodwind. It's a kind of ode to the natural world, to the trees, to the birds and also a musical journey for any dreamer. I recommend to listen it with headphones for the best experience!

Happy happy (2023)

(After Math. Before Spelling. A love that could not be. The true story of two best friends, trapped in My Own Private Manitoba.)

Trying to sing a sunrise,
from out the letting of our bad blood,
but your silence speaks,my knees weak,
beneath the flow of the flood,

Honestly, can't you see,this is me,
trying to be what you want,
except i couldn't and can't,
not a promise or pant, could i haunt,

desolation darkens the door,
where i dress up in my death,
but that's life, and it's rife,with this strife,
the clock breaking with each breath,

and now the hands never meet,
so we'll stare at our feet,with interest,
and the numbers don't count,
up to any amount, i confess,

Wager me, i'll be wringing the words,
from my clotted throat,
Wager me, and the tracks that we marked,
bid a baleful bloat,

Wager me,
for i told the truth,
and you broke my mirror,

It must be all my fault,
if we don't appear,
is our reflection gone?
is that the path we're on?
out from the sinking streets,
of the quicksand concrete,

you know my scars still sing...

Apologies to fall from my lips,
are only tears in the rain,
in the muddle of this puddle,
I would catch your refection again,
but for the reality that my proximity,
imparts pain,
and the truth is that noose of abuse,
swinging loose in my brain,

Sorry is the name of the blame,
that bides a world without friends,
where confessions of love, are made of,
old shames and long lost loose ends,

And every poor Palindrome,
a once and future home to forsake,
until they're lost in the cost,
of destruction that they'll leave in their wake,

Palindrome

Well I’ve had some sunny days and it’s been fun
but when I woke up this morning and I raised up the shade
it was a pink sky forewarning
bad times are headed my way 

Should I run 
Should I hide
Lock the door and stay inside and 
every time I look that sun gets higher
and that sky
turns brighter 
and 

It’s a holy ball of fire streaming death rays and golden spires
bathed in the rouge of a painted lady
wears all her desire
and 

I’ve had days of constant struggle 
like I’m living in the bowels of a dead end puzzle 
so I’m happy for the settling hue
of a sun who’s time is due
give me a pink sky tonight 
a lick of rose
a peaceful sight 

Well I’ve had some sunny days and it’s been fun
but when I woke up this morning and I raised up the shade
it was a pink sky forewarning
bad times are headed my way

Wears Her Desire

大橋 敏明 のアルバム

make an excuse

Secret Caves is Carrie, Simon, Joe & Caligula Jr

i don’t wanna lose control
i just wanna scream
all through the recitation
come and help me dig this hole
there’s a knife 
between my teeth but
i’m holding a flower

i don’t wanna be a friend
i don’t wanna dream
about your celebration 
i don’t want this day to end
there’s a knife 
between my teeth
but i’m holding a flower

hide inside a fire hide hide

i don’t wanna lose control
i don’t wanna feast 
upon the plans you’re scheming
i just want the bell to toll
there’s a knife 
between my teeth but 
i’m holding a flower

hide inside a fire hide hide

perched atop that chainlink fence
in the terrible violent summer of love
i spied a girl like a ghost
with a dress made of needles
led me down to the beach
sand streaked with blood
and we held hands with the 
vampire starlets
as the pesticide formed a gorgeous cloud
and i said oh kill kill kill
but i didn’t say it out loud

i don’t wanna lose control
i just wanna jig
through the indoctrination
come and help me dig 
this hole
there’s a knife 
between my teeth but
im holding a flower
