Dokudanjou BEAUTY

.

Electric, noisy, pop, punk, and disco.

I wanted to make a song with all those elements in it, and this was it.

.

I thought of the bass riff that was the seed of the idea for this song during the memento mori tour.

I wanted to make something you could go nuts to for four minutes.

With a simple, simple rhythm.

Something bold.

But, with a sort of silly, joke thing going on.

For my friend, who passed away.

Death is a frightening thing.

"It's gonna be all right Yeah Yeah

Nothing's gonna go wrong."

R.I.P.

Oh, and the day changed, but it was her birthday today!
