    Summary

    Four years ago, a single band dominated the charts in Japan's musical world. Consisting of just two members, Soukoku was considered something of a miracle sent from heaven - especially once one noticed that both members weren't even twenty. Tours, fans, merch, interviews, albums...they had it all. But all dreams end eventually.
    Soukoku suddenly and inexplicably broke up, heralded by songwriter Dazai Osamu’s not-so-subtle exit from the Port Mafia label after the unfortunate passing of older musician Oda Sakunosuke. He joined the Armed Detective Agency label and things couldn't be worse for the former bandmates.
    Dazai focuses on writing the ADA's songs and doing backing instrumentals, and he hasn’t sang in public since Soukoku broke up.
    On the flip side, his former partner has been undergoing a revival of sorts within the last year after a few years of slow releases and rare appearances which only reestablished his hold as a top musician, despite his young age of 22
    But everyone has their secrets. Some are worse than others. Some can bring a person's entire career tumbling down in just a few seconds.
    Maybe this collaboration won’t be such an inconvenience after all…
