    I've been meaning to listen to stuff like Aurora and Technique forever now, I guess I finally have an excuse! This was a great video, didn't anticipate getting so emotional near the end, thanks Jake

      Jake: I won’t let it get lost in the deluge of new music I promise! I wouldn’t hold out for Morgan though, he’s barely got it in him to listen to what we review (dude’s got a lot going on so be easy on him ❤️)

    I'm just freshly get into Susumu Hirasawa works, but already love his musics so much through Byakkoya no Musume, especially when i look at his early P-Model where he is really young, and all of that is thanks to RUclips recommendations, so i really hope you did the same kind of video like this for his other project, cuz i'm really curious to hear your opinion on it, considering of how fascinating Susumu Hirasawa vocal in his early 20's is, it just so vastly different than what he became now & and it's amusing to me that he was that wild & unintentionally funny back then 😂

    I loved your words at the end of the vid. It’s always really weird trying to fit Guts into a ranking of Hirasawa songs, it feels like such an obvious or generic answer. Even so, I can’t stop loving it. It’s just one of the most intensely beautiful songs ever made

    • @JamsandTea
      @JamsandTea  Год назад +1

      Thank you so much, and I couldn’t agree more, it was something that I just knew deserved its own specific segment, both because ranking the Berserk soundtrack (though I do love it) amidst his albums feels unfair, but also because it contains so much of his spirit as an artist that it simply can’t go ignored

  • @Al-di8cn

    A little disappointed that Niwashi King wasn’t mentioned at all, but with how large his discography, I can understand why it was missed. That being said, how you mentioned each song in Technique of Relief evokes a specific feeling, like how The Man from Narcissus Space makes you feel like you are wandering through space, or the chills that Ghost Bridge evokes, Gardener King makes you feel like you can take on the whole world with a nation United behind you. I love the lyrics in it that allude to servant leadership, science, and civilization.

    • @JamsandTea
      @JamsandTea  Год назад +1

      Oh trust me I wanted to go deeper, that song is absolutely worthy of a mention, it’s beautiful. And absolutely agree, that one is imbued with a grandiosity that I don’t think anyone but Hirasawa could conjure

    • @CeramicShot
      @CeramicShot Год назад +3

      Niwashi King is probably in my top 3 as well! It's also one of the very few of Hirasawa's songs that's in 3/4 time signature in spite of its repeated counting to four in the main verses.

    Genuinely could not offer a ranking personally tbh lol. While personally I adore the original trilogy of Hirasawa albums they are surely not the best of his work so that rating is pretty fair.
    Although jdksjdksjdksjdkjs being the terminal horsebone i am i'd like to offer brief correction that at 11:27 he had been active as a solo musician for a little over thirty years :-)
    Unfortunately I can't sit down and watch this all in one sitting but o7 I'm coming back to this as soon as i can.

    • @JamsandTea
      @JamsandTea  Год назад +1

      I appreciate the dedication! And completely understandable, it was a tough task ranking them all, and I gotta reiterate that I more or less love *all* of them, at least partially. And my bad! I tried to have all my ducks in a row for this one so I guess it was inevitable that I get something wrong 🙃

  • @cardmossdn8058

    Think you'll ever do something like this with P-Model, Susumu's remix albums, or Kaku P-Model?

    • @JamsandTea
      @JamsandTea  Год назад +1

      I’ve thought about it! It’s a big commitment but what I think is more likely is that I’ll talk about some of the more notable records in our Record Club series with my friends on here, just to get some variety in perspective

    Imo there can be no ranking, its hard, the ones I like most fluctuate. The ones anyone can like most always fluctuate. Personally its his Kaku P-Model one, Kai = Kai from 2018, and his solo album Techniques of Relief from 1998.

      One of the worst things of his obscurity is that I can barely find anything of him on Spotify, he has like 3 albums on there >.
