Well, okay sure, I thought probably the only TOKYO Tefutefu reference I’d be making today was that note in the Weekender about their shrinking a bit, but while tying loose ends for the latest edition in the Longest Running Weekly Episodic Blog Post Dedicated to Idols That Are Loud, I noticed a few of you guys — yes, I’m looking at you — talking about the latest two-hour stealth teaser from the latest Codomomental unit. And we here at Homicidols Dot Com have a standard practice, an Official Policy you could say, to always try to preserve and amplify those teasers because there are hundreds of millions of people who probably aren’t paying any attention to anything during that window of time, and dammit we want them to like the idols!
So anyway, new song, “cry more again”:

But of course permalinks are a thing!
Lyrics
止まってひとひら 羽模様淡く
散らばもろともと仰ぐよ
泣ききれない夜…深淵混ざった混沌 何に執着?
気持ち悪さが蠢く影
たちまち火がつく 誰も彼も業…興味は灰 Trueは迷子
どうしよう…自信もないよ…
もう死のう、疑心暗記助けてと月明かり
inoriは溶け出してく
残酷な悪意虹色抱きしめてと 泣き叫ぶけれど
夢の中歩き続けてるようだよ、夢遊病?
君、見失う、ほど遠くなる?
寂しさが頬に刺さる 隙間風、痛む
捨て去った記憶さえ今はまだ、
胸締め付ける…立ち止まるたび下を向いて
この世にひとりぼっちなんだって嘆く
“もう泣かなくていいよ、
君は、君は、望まれてるよ”
聞きたい、聞けないの?
想いは浮いて…助けての言葉も
願いも掻き消えてく
残酷を叶える最期抱きしめてよ 振り解く闇も
付き纏う悲しみも透けて見える Daybreak
君、見失う、ほど苦しくて
寂しさに頬を濡らす paranoia久遠
捨てられぬ記憶だけ今はまだ、夢?
嘲笑う…助けても知らないと
祈りが千切られてく
残酷な悪意七色抱きしめてと 泣き叫ぶけれど
夢の中歩き続けてるようだよ、夢遊病?
君、見失う、ほど遠くなる。
悲しさが僕に刺さる タナトスが笑う
捨てないと誓う様、今もまだ、夢?
cry more again…
Holy shit, that’s chaotic and raw! I have to think that’s still in demo phase — like all the right pieces are there, and frankly if Tefutefu gets to be the “we’re actually a lot like mid-era Zenkimi” act from now on, I’m completely on board with it. I swear to you, this could be the best idol song of the year with just the tiniest bit of tweaking, and I am not suggesting that the sheer chaos in the bridge is the problem, that’s lovely. Hell, maybe do more of it! BE THE FREE JAZZ IDOL UNIT WE ALWAYS NEEDED.
Anyway, your mileage may vary.
