The 1st full album of 2022 by the hardcore punk four-member group GOOD MORNING, consisting of ex-CRUSTY HI CHARGE, SAAG-, and CRIES, who show off their outstanding presence in the current Kansai hardcore scene!
CRUSTY HI CHARGE, Killing Evil Fool - I think SAAG was a band that survived and worked in the middle of the Japanese hardcore scene in the very wild and harsh 90s ~ early 2000s, but after shedding the negative elements of such an old scene, As a group that is doing things positively, GOOD MORNING dares to develop the band name and sound in a catchy way, and the song emphasizes the melody!
However, this member is definitely based on the tradition of Japanese hardcore, but each song has its own characteristics, and there are 10 songs that are hot and satisfying to listen to all at once until the end! As expected! !
The following is from the label information at the time of release!
The new band GOOD MORNING, consisting of members of Crusty Hi Charge, SAAG-, and CRIES, will release their 1st full album "FREE" nationwide!
The members have been enrolled so far, and the sound is more pop and clear than the pop and clear song and chorus that stand out from the bloody metalcore sound imagined from the above band name!
However, of course, it is a rough hardcore punk with passion, and the songs of innocent delinquents open up the horizon, so to speak, a song and a hardcore punk sound!
From the pop and melody sense reminiscent of PAINTBOX, to the melancholic and emotional sound that is similar to the guillotine terror of recent years, the metalcore texture, riffs, and noisiness reminiscent of SAAG occasionally appear.
It is not made with a head in mind, but a bloody way driven by impulse and passion, and above all, the dynamism of all 10 songs that you can't help but feel the power of human beings.
The artwork for the jacket with a black bird flapping its wings suitable for this work, which is named "FREE = freedom", is YONARTE, a member of ex, CAVO, an old friend of their former band, and is currently working as a tattoo artist.
The recording was handled by recording engineer Akira Inada, who is currently active as a guitarist for the extreme metal band PALM.
The band's rough tone and dynamism are beautifully summarized in a sound source.
