ENGLISH

The footsteps I’ve been following end here Without any precedence, an unexplored reality opens The alternatives I came to know, none of those are lies But which is most important, I’ll have to make up my mind Hey, isn’t it scary That’s the thing called living Answer to every other future that you didn’t choose There’s no such thing as right and wrong when you devote your soul on your choice. The world has sure been waiting for that kind of resolve “Fate and limit, everything’s just an illusion” If that passion is real then face it head on. That scenery that’s being blurred over and over. Even if it fades, even if it’s stained, there’s not one day I’ll forget. Unknowingly taking the long way, I ended up making you wait. What everyone called a former dream Hey, would you remember me? There’s no more turning back Everything that was in the past, We are to leave those behind And then we’ll see There’s no such thing as right and wrong when you devote your soul on your choice. Questioning comes after everything’s done. Seizing the moment like that, the ending Becomes more dazzling than anything, befitting a tribute of goodbye*[1] If it hadn’t been me, If it hadn’t been you, There are countless possibilities calling out Amidst the stardust scattered within infinity. I’m glad I chose to be here. There’s no such thing as right and wrong when you devote your soul on your choice. The world has sure been waiting for that kind of resolve “Fate and limit, everything’s just an illusion” It’s okay to tremble, If that passion is real then face it head on.

NOTES: [1] - 手向け (tamuke) is an offering to a deity/spirit/a person who’s about to depart to the other world.

pk5u: This has been sitting in my drive for quite some time now. It’s my favorite BLAST song… okay maybe on equal standing with Lullabye but this came first so I technically loved this longer. Hahaha! Enjoy.

PS: We have a PENGUIN RESEARCH dedicated fan blog. I’m only helping my friend for now since I don’t have time but I’m still gonna contribute what I can. Literally click this whole paragraph to get there. Yes, click me!

PENGUIN RESEARCH

Penguin Research is a 5-man Japanese rock band formed in 2015 under the management of ultraCeep. They debuted in 2016 under the Sony Music record label, SME Records, and was transferred to SACRA MUSIC on April 2017.

History The band was formed when Shota Horie was in search of artists whom he could work with and eventually found Yoji Ikuta, who was then doing covers of Horie's songs on the video sharing website, Nico Nico Douga. John Kanda joined afterwards while Keita Shinbo and Yosuke Shibazaki was recruited via held auditions. And thus, the 5-man band, Penguin Research, was born.

They released their first single, “Joker ni Yoroshiku,” on January 20, 2016 which marked their major debut and held their first one-man live, March 6th the same year. They proceeded to released their first mini album, “WILL,” on March 30th under ultraCeep, while their second and third singles, “Spotlight” and “Button,” were both released under SME Records in the same year; on June 8th and September 7th, consecutively.

On March 8, 2017, they released their first album titled “Haisha Fukkatsu Sen Jiyuugata”, and will continue to create music under the record label SACRA MUSIC from April onwards.

Composition and lyrics are done by Horie but everyone’s opinions are well taken into consideration. During recording sessions, Horie and Ikuta come together for another discussion to have full understanding of the music.
