 ====== Background ======
-====== Release and promotion ======
+In 2013, [[wiki:Utsu-P|Utsu-P]] expressed interest in forming a band to pursue a more live oriented style of music while his vocaloid music could take on a more experimental approach. In 2014 auditions were held to find a singer, [[wiki:Saba|Saba]] was found and recruited. In 2015, the project was unveiled with their first single [[wiki:Amazing|Amazing]]. Their debut live took place at Utsu-P's [[wiki:Sou|Sou]] event in September. The mini album would be released on new year's eve of 2015.
 ====== Music and lyrics ======
+As the band's debut album, it marks a mission statement of Utsu-P's signature mixture of metalcore instrumentation with pop songwriting, this time with a more focused aim on a live oriented style. As a result, the songs generally carry an exciting energy with an emphasis on hooks. Nearly every song features electronic elements sometimes leading the song.\\

+The album explores a variety of themes, but a common thread can be found within all of them, as each song critiques Japanese society's busybody lifestyle in some form or another.
 ====== Songs ======
+The album opens up with Intro, which is a basic electronic introduction song which builds up to an explosion of guitars and drums, it directly leads into the second track, Minor Task Girl. The title is a pun, as it's written as "girl" in the title, however the lyrics state "Ga aru" roughly meaning "(I) have". MIMIZU IN THE DANCEFLOOR has a strong danceability and an instantly memorable hook. it's also the band's most popular song and their first with a guitar solo. Amazing is the band's first single and functions almost as a mission statement with it's full band feeling and electronic leads. Hypocritical Courtesy is a short and fast song which usually closes The Ohayogozaimas' live sets. House VS. Thief is a simple mid tempo song with a catchy chorus, emphasizing audience participation, it also features two sections which could both be considered as a "breakdown". \\
+\\
+Obscenity is an extended and re arranged version of the song P.O.R.N.O. which Utsu-P wrote in 2013. The lyrics tell about finding love in a miserable world. Endless Amusement is a song about playing video games as a form of escapism.
