This booklet is hard to read. Still, it was only two stanzas, so…
There is nothing quite like a lover leaving you, is there… I wouldn’t know. This song is basically the Japanese metalcore version of this song.

No video. I have some distinct imagery in mind for this song, though. It definitely gives off a “Wake up a better person than you were the night before” kind of vibe.

Wasn’t really planning to translate this but all the nico comments were like, “I totally understand that feeling [of whatever is happening in the song]” so I guess I was just curious what that was.
But I ended up having some real trouble translating this song… it’s still a little vague, I think, but the general idea seems to be “there’s a love triangle between a boy, a girl, and one of those ‘Queen Bee’ type girls you see in school. She spreads rumors to try and snare the guy.” After the solo there’s a perspective shift, to who I can only assume is the guy.
A kind commenter gave a slightly more informed interpretation. It seems that mine was mostly correct, but I was mistaken on several pronouns. The story makes quite a bit more sense now.

Haha, get it? CHILLS!

Shinigiwa Satellite – Senketsu Violence
Ei-Seitarou does it again… I don’t know if the way the vocal melodies were arranged were crafted this well on purpose, but… I think it’s beautiful. Perfect ratio of head-banging to sing-a-long.
I transcribed the lyrics with a little help from my friends; you can read them here.
About a child who wants to grow up.
There’s certainly nothing questionable about this song’s content!
There’s nothing wrong with student-teacher relationships!
Feels a little redundant to paste the English parts 3 times, but that’s life.

Foreground Eclipse – Vermillion Halo
A TAB?! This isn’t a guitar tab blog! …
Alright, let’s start my project to tab out the most perfect Touhou album, Wishes Hidden in the Foreground Noises! Here is the intro to the album (thanks to my pal for helping me with the chords) and Vermillion Halo! Yeah!
Oath of Allegiance is done, I’m just holding out on whoever actually visits here regularly. I kinda wanted to finish tabbing the whole album first, but life doesn’t always go as planned. Anyway, most of the album is done…
I could write a whole goddamn post about why this is one of the best albums ever, but that might have to be saved for when I finish tabbing/analyzing it, haha.
Cute little song. I might be getting better at this… or now I’m just blazing through because I don’t want to think about it? You decide!
Literally, I decided the translate because the chorus made me hnnnnnggghhhh. But I guess it’s a song about graduation, and also your senpai loves you! How nice!
Song: SEE YOU AGAIN!

DIRTY RIFFFFFFFFFF
Seems like a song about someone who is embracing life and finding hope in a changing world, trying to find someone who has already given up and hidden away. The final chorus seems to be a shift in thought process for the person who had given up; they’ve accepted what was said earlier in the song, about how everything is subjective and it’s best to hope for the best. This theory is corroborated by the uplifting key change (in this sense I can forgive this blatant truck-driver’s shift…).
And then there’s a DIRRRTTTTYYYYYY RIIIIIIFFFFFFFFF
Don’t know anything about Sugamo, or which Fernandez is being referenced, or why they are in this song at all… if you know, feel free to tell me so I can better grasp the meaning. Big thank you to Kafka-fuura for pointing out I had mistaken ぬ for め when transcribing the lyrics from the book…

Man, I know some of these lyrics are wrong but dammit, I can’t help it. Will correct when (if) new lyrics go up. I’m gonna call it “close enough.” Thanks to everyone down there for hearing what I couldn’t.
And thanks to siggy for helping me with the chords. These are only the power chords, so…
