Radwimps Forever Daze Blue Vinyl Edition

"Forever daze. Making music under pandemic, for the last 18 months, was like feeling constant dizziness. As a result, we ended up with music that is so future-forward and open to the Sun which made me happy. Life can be very difficult at times. But I'm sure I will keep making music as I sway and drift about this journey of life." - Yojiro Noda"FOREVER DAZE" is composed of 14 songs including the singles "Blame Summer," "Iron Feather," "TWILIGHT" (from "WE ARE ONE," the special project commemorating vol. 100 manga and 1000th episode of anime "ONE PIECE"), "Utakata-Uta" (theme from the film "It's a Flickering Life") and "SUMMER DAZE 2021."
