reach up to the universe - Reasons PV (Japanese music video)

reach up to the universe was the only Japanese band I ever saw that had an American frontman. Sadly, he left the band mid-last year, and in addition to the lyrics losing their fluency and the Japanese vocalist not being as good, the band no longer performs any of the songs from his time with them live (this is in respect for him).

The band never really explained the reason that he left, merely saying that he was leaving the band. Whatever the reason, this is among my favorite Japanese indie bands, and while I'll continue to follow them, though I really wish they still had the original vocalist.

They recently made a MySpace:

used by serial killers and these nation builders
when they kill and lie, but still we try
to see the truth, what can we do
when it's a tug of war 'til you just want more
