Vocalist Mao and bassist Aki from the rock band “SID” composed the music and lyrics.

 

▼ Comments from SID band members
Mao: Vocalist of SID here – I was in charge of writing the lyrics for “ASH”. “ASH” engages with the theme of confronting an adverse situation, through which you must push forward and live on. I wrote the lyrics specifically for LiSA’s vocals and ensured that they fit well with the theme of the anime “Fate/Apocrypha”. I’ll be so happy if many people love this song. Thank you very much!

Aki: I’m the bassist of SID – Aki! I was in charge of the music for the song “ASH”. I fused Fate/Apocrypha’s dramatic storyline and LiSA’s strong vocals to compose this song. It really brings out the delicate side to LiSA’s vocals. This is a rock song with a desperate feel to it. Please check it out!

 

The official music video and CD jacket image will be announced in the future. Carrying the successful release of a new single in her arms, LiSA will be surging through the remainder of 2017 with a hall tour that consists of 13 public performances. She will be performing to approximately 25,000 people. Fans are anticipating a lot from her!

    When yama chugs her can she says the words 'Into the ZONe' along with the futuristic-sounding voice.

The track itself is titled Ketsuryu ('Blood Flow') and was written for this commercial.  

    Interview

      LiSA ・What did you think of the commercial and your appearance?"For me, it was a live performance. Even I was surprised at the show of power that ZONe has [in the commercial] when it turns on your switch. I enjoyed it like a real live performance, since the part when I switch into that invincible zone was filmed just as I look in the video." ・Tell us about the song RUNAWAY which features in your commercial. "The song is about quitting while you're ahead in life. It's the start of a new era, heading into that invincible zone to laugh lots, sing, dance, and enjoy everything."   yama・Tell us about the song Ketsuryu which features in your commercial "ESME MORI kindly wrote this song for me. It's a song that brings up the topic of being bored in life, and feeling lonely, but that you can still find someone special or something you can immerse yourself in to light up your life. It's about keeping your heart moving even if those things disappear. I hope it encourages people, even if just a little."
