The HOLE


Concept

The HOLE is a concept album consisting of a CD and a pop-up book (a picture book that flies out with sound and light).

As humans, we tend to think that we are the center of the earth, and focus only on the prosperity of the “now”.

However, human beings are part of the nature of the earth, and we have a role to play in passing on to the future the nature and life that has been passed on from generation to generation over tens of thousands of years.

Nuclear power plants, the result of human desires, are like monsters, somehow connected to parts of the human body.

How do we deal with the desires and conflicts that exist within us all, and how do we connect them to the next generation?

Based on these themes, the album focuses on “nature” and “children”, and all the songs become a story.
