Alba Sera is hard at work with a tightly packed release schedule for the coming weeks. Nevertheless, before all of this, on January 17, she unveiled the exceptionally powerful song Messiah composed by Yuyoyuppe. This track is currently available as a pre-release, part of the upcoming album Kasuka.
In the song Messiah, Alba Sera assumes the symbolic role of a messianic figure endowed with both forgiving and apocalyptic powers—a duality between salvation and destruction. Fittingly, Alba Sera’s vocal performance is both authoritative and divine, blending seamlessly with the chaotic instrumentals by Yuyoyuppe, who composed, arranged, and mixed this piece. Notably, Yuyoyuppe has established his name in the Vocaloid metal scene but has also extended his influence into the mainstream scene, including his compositions for BABYMETAL.
In conjunction with the music video, Alba Sera shared:
A world stained with lies and broken reasons.
” I know where the world ends. ”Is this singer a messiah who forgives and brings salvation?
Or is she a weapon of death that destroys all?Is the answer “God Willing” or something else ? …
The powerful features that can be experienced throughout the song can also be found through the expressive illustrative art by Hanazawa Akira (花澤明), and the stylish logo by Yoshinaga (吉永), that is utilized for the music video.
The music video itself was crafted by the team at maxilla; Kazuya Futagoishi served as the director and editor, with Mami Sonokawa responsible for the effect animations.
