mynameis... is the perfect Japanese screamo band. I have no words to describe them but ryan from sanitizedjapan explained it beautifully.
Like a bright morning, cracking your eyes to the clean, clear sunlight streaming in your bedroom windows. All around is a delicate silence welcoming you into consciousness. This day will be different, it will be good. Your mind isn't groggy and confused, like waking up in darkness tends to feel. This is waking with purpose and clarity. This is how mynameis makes me feel.
The album opens with a beautiful intro perfectly fitting a bright morning. Once the music comes in, it refreshes you in a completely different way. Nothing is what you would expect from a Japanese screamo band. Yes, there are the intensely good melodies. Yes, there is that bombastic dynamism that is present in the best. But mynameis is cut from a completely different cloth. The first difference you'll notice is the tinge of the melodies is towards optimism and hopefulness instead of depression and melancholy. The next difference that you'll notice is the passionately sung, not screamed, vocals that further that optimistic sound. They're shouting, almost begging, to the music gods to be something more than another band. And with those two center pieces, mynameis creates a sound that is all their own.
Tokyo Plastic is one of the most impressive albums as a whole i've come across in a long time. Yes, they share similarities to other screamo bands like Sora, but while Sora has forgone passionate intensity for dynamic breadth, mynameis has both.
This is the standout track Kimi ni mita yume (A Dream That I Saw In You).
