Description
Cymbals' fourth album, Love You, released in 2003, is now available on vinyl. Further deepening their soul/R&B sound, this mature album stands out for its sweetness and mellow feel. Mako Toki's supple vocals blend with Reiji Oki's sophisticated melodies and grooves, creating urban pop with a warm, human touch. It includes "Angel Who Claims to Be Time," which has been re-evaluated overseas in recent years. This work represents the band at their musical peak and can be considered Cymbals' masterpiece. A seminal work that brings the lineage of Japanese pop from the 1990s Shibuya-kei scene to its conclusion is now reborn on vinyl.
