rest and relax - by Lou Hakan

Red Spider Lily (曼珠沙華) is a 60s-inspired rock & roll track based on the Japanese poem Manjushage by Hakushu Kitahara.
With swinging drums, twangy retro guitar riffs, and a touch of mystery, the song blends old-school rock energy with the haunting beauty of traditional Japanese literature.

The red spider lily (cluster‐amaryllis)—known in Japan as a symbol of death, rebirth, and forbidden love—blooms here as a sonic flower, dangerous and dazzling.

GONSHAN. GONSHAN. 何處へゆく、
赤い、御墓の曼珠沙華、
曼珠沙華、
けふも手折りに來たわいな。
GONSHAN. GONSHAN. 何本か、
地には七本、血のやうに、
血のやうに、
ちやうど、あの兒の年の數。
GONSHAN. GONSHAN. 氣をつけな、
ひとつ摘んでも、日は眞晝、
日は眞晝、
ひとつあとからまたひらく。
GONSHAN. GONSHAN. 何故泣くろ、
何時まで取っても曼珠沙華、
曼珠沙華、
恐や、赤しや、まだ七つ。

Red Spider Lily – A Japanese Poem in Sound（曼珠沙華／北原白秋）

The Case of Murder is based on the Japanese poem Satsujin Jiken (“Murder Case”) by Sakutarō Hagiwara, presented here in its original text.
A glass-clad detective, marble crossroads, crystal floors, and blue blood—its imagery is more dreamscape than crime scene.
This rendition blends that cold, surreal atmosphere with the energy of classic Rock & Roll, evoking a stylish, retro mood rather than gritty realism.

R.I.P Jay, my bro.

I'm sorry I didn't try hard enough to get this project done with you, I sat back too much, procrastinated, it became a meme that it'd never drop and it was my fault.

Now you're gone, I'll miss you, should've reached out more throughout the years, but regardless, you'll be my brother, in all planes.

Love you bro.
