Product Description
Content Introduction VALSHE, who celebrated her 10th anniversary of her major debut in 2020, has decided to release her 6th concept mini-album, "ISM," as a way to conclude 2021 and as the first step and first statement toward a new stage. The title of this work, which holds significant meaning as it foreshadows the next direction after her 10th anniversary, is a powerful word chosen to express VALSHE's style = "principles and assertions" once again. A major focus of the music on this album is the aim of having "completely different genres for every song." This selection of songs is unique to VALSHE, who has approached various musical styles since her debut, and it is a way to fully aim to expand her musical possibilities even further. The album's lead track, "GIFT," maintains the classic genre feel of a "digital rock" singer, but the beat and atmosphere of the song are loud and tight, setting it apart from her previous works. We hope you will feel the true meaning behind the lyrics, which express "You are not wrong" from a multifaceted perspective. In the music video, VALSHE boldly takes on new forms of expression for the first time. Combining her live performance style, which has developed along both dance and band axes, with an approach that incorporates the so-called "long take" style of video, it is a fitting step forward for VALSHE's visual works. As one of the concepts is "all songs are from completely different genres," the other included tracks are also very diverse. In addition to the previously released song "Romanshugi," a Japanese-style funk song that was used as the ending theme for Bunka Broadcasting's "Yano & Kominami Picture Story WA-GEI," she also tries her hand at genres such as French Electro and K-pop, which have been experiencing a long-running movement in recent years. There are also songs that expand the fantastic world that has been at the core of VALSHE, and songs that approach subculture in the style of anime songs. On the other hand, she also approaches the realm of Celtic sounds and metal, which could be said to have been made possible because of this concept, making it an album where you can experience the "VALSHE-ism" that blends old and new without getting bored from beginning to end. This album is so substantial that it's almost inappropriate to call it a mini-album. Experience "ISM," a track that can be described as purely VALSHE at its finest.
