ファンタジーなヴィジュアル演出を追求したライヴや、メンバーが共同生活を送る幼馴染といった物語性も躍進の一因だろうけど、果たしてこの2枚目のフル作は、彼らがその音楽的な世界観を拡大し続け、間口の広さと高いポップネスを実現することで、強い伝播力を獲得してきた事実を再認識させる。エレクトロニックとオーケストラルの間を気ままに闊歩しながら、珠玉のポップ・ミュージックを構築していく様は圧巻だ。
[English Translation]
The live performance on visually-enjoyable fantasy-like stage sets and the story of their relationship as childhood friends currently living together may be two of the elements that made this band popular. In this second full album, however, they make us once again recognize that they have succeeded to convey their music powerfully by realizing their broad and very pop musicality and continuing to expand their musical world view. While swaggering between electronic and orchestral at ease, the way they build gemmy pop music is overwhelming.
