a flood of circle｜Talking Blues’ “a flood of circle” is too cool!

a flood of circle

a flood of circle is a Japanese three-piece rock band. Formed in 2006, the band is popular for its blues and rock-based music.

In 2007, they appeared on the ROOKIE A GO-GO stage at the FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL, a gateway to success for young bands, and became a household name.

The previous guitarist suddenly disappeared during the 2009 tour. a flood of circle has gone through many upheavals, and after several member changes, the band is now a three-man unit.

One of the reasons why a flood of circle is supported by rock fans is the voice of vocalist Ryosuke Sasaki. Sasaki launched “talking blues,” a genre that has now grown into one, but it started with him.

Talking blues is a narrative song that is sung as if it were spoken. It’s a bit different from rap music as well, and the fact that it has a rock sound but is narrated is very new and innovative.

In addition, the heat of the song does not diminish because it is narrated, but only increases. Talking blues is one of the reasons why a flood of circle is so popular for their hot live performances.

One song I would recommend is “I LOVE YOU”, released in 2011.

This song was created in response to the unrest that swept over Japan in the wake of the Great East Japan Earthquake, and it was born out of a desire to see what they could do as a rock band. It is a song that gives us hope in the midst of the anxiety at the bottom of the pyramid, with songs like “I’ll be alive forever” and “The future is yours.

I LOVE YOU

Love the singer’s unique voice 😀

Flood is a romanticized version of a band member.
You know, like a handsome guy with a lame voice or a beautiful sister with a long bass guitar.
Yeah, it’s just cool.

I first heard this song when I was a sophomore in high school.
It’s been almost 10 years now and I still listen to it every day …
I really like it …

The first time I heard afoc (an abbreviation of a flood of circle) was at a live show against my favorite band. I kept looking for a song I liked and got to it.
I like this song because it’s 5 years old but it has a newness to it that I honestly like.

I’ve listened to it over and over and over and over again. Flood is an addiction, many songs, get ready for it!

Quickly get out of the “in the know” please.

Tabuchi has a crazy sense of composition.
From an ani-song to such a cool song, what kind of drawer do you have!
