TRAUMATIC is the 2nd album by Utsu-P. Released on November 14, 2010 at THE VOC@LOID M@STER 14. It features some of Utsu-P's most well known tracks such as Vermin, Adult's Toy, THE DYING MESSAGE, and Heart Sutra Hardcore.

In 2016, Utsu-P remade this album in full, it's titled Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Production and musical style

The guitar tone and production on this album is noticeably “crunchier” compared to DIARRHEA and previously released tracks

Compared to his previous album, TRAUMATIC features a less sludgy sound and a bigger focus on an energetic thrash metal/metalcore sound. This song also features the introduction of Kagamine Rin to Utsu-P's music, with her vocals being featured on 9 tracks, with Hatsune Miku on the remaining 5 tracks.

Several tracks have a high tempo feeling. Notably, “Constipation Of Death”, “Adult's Toy”, and “Vermin”. The tracks “Corner Of The Public Toilet” and “Black Showtime” feature a synthesizer keyboard, Being the first brush with outwardly electronic elements in Utsu-P's music.

Lyrical Themes

The opening track, “Constipation Of Death” has themes of societal disillusionment, and personal identity which are presented through a lens of angsty rebellion. “Children's World” is about the yearning of change felt by young people in a world full of disillusionment and outdated views. “Adult's Toy” is about someone being abused, likely raped. It's often theorized that it's about a rape victim killing their abuser. “THE DYING MESSAGE” is a song about resilience found amidst profound tragedy. The final lyrics of the song specifically seem to be directly referencing the Hiroshima bombings in particular. “Corner Of The Public Toilet” is a song about emotional distress in an unrelenting, uncaring world. “TRAUMATIC” is a short track, quickly reflecting on trauma and an anxious feeling of scrutiny.
