これはただの焼き直しの音楽ではない。 ブリティッシュ・ロックが持っている色褪せた空気や、頭の中でグルグルとサウンドがリピートさ れる中毒性、 メランコリックな感覚を呼び覚ますメロディー、それらがザ・クロニクルズというフィルターを通 過することで “新しい日本のロックの形”として生まれ変わる。東京・下北沢を中心に2003年2月より本格的に活 動を始め、 昨年ファースト・アルバム「LOSGATES」をリリース。そのUKを彷佛とさせるマニアックな音楽 性が、特にコアな 音楽ファンやミュージシャンに熱く支持され、深い信頼を得ることとなる。その後はワンマン・ラ イブや多数の イベントに出演するなど、ライブを重ねることでその音楽性の深みは増していき、凄まじい追求心 を抱えながら およそ一年半振りとなるセカンド・アルバム「songs from nowhere」の製作に突入。楽曲全体の 雰囲気に重点を 置き、段階を踏むごとに盛り上がりを見せる構成に聴く者が飲み込まれていく様は圧巻である。ま た、この手の 音楽と日本詩がこうも自然に溶け込むものなのかと舌を巻いてしまうだろう。 もしもクリエイション・レーベルがまだ存在したのならば、この音楽を見逃さなかったはずだ。
