HAKUSHI HASEGAWA - Honest Feeling LP (colour vinyl)

Limited edition clear/white smoke colour vinyl.

Hakushi Hasegawa manages to continue with their maximalist tendencies, yet they feel much more focused throughout the album, and manages to pace itself a lot better than Mahougakkou did, with a more unifying theme around their identity and musically with the inclusion of better transitions and interludes between the major tracks of the album.

The opening track, Little Briar-Rose, a reference to the fairytale Sleeping Beauty, sets the stage and basic idea behind the album, with Hasegawa singing about being a new witch that takes away the princess, and their desire to be free from expectations of them over a groovy, and simple (for HaHa’s standards) instrumentation.
