[東方 Post Rock] Akane — Eternal Shrine Maiden is Searching for Answers
218Hi everyone! It's good to be back after such a short break, I'm glad to let you know that I am working on a new album. The work is still in the early stages, but I can tell you for sure that I got the concept, which is the most important for me.
Without a doubt this album will have a much darker tone than the previous ones, and I think you can already hear it from this song. Themes of perseverance, of finding one's way in unfamiliar, mystical circumstances, of uncovering the somber, life-changing secrets - those will be the main focus.
The song that you are hearing now is about my relation to a certain reliable shrine maiden, who was the source of my inspirations for so many years, that I just had to go all out at arranging her theme. As to how she fits into the story of the album - you will hear it for yourself when the time comes.
For now - I hope that you like what you hear in this song.
