Take (a cover of the Japanese rock band Sekaiichi ). It starts as a warm, earnest indie rock song, but halfway through, the mix warps and vocals fragment. It’s not a remix; it’s a musical representation of memory degrading. That’s the kind of layered thinking present across the entire album. Comparison to Other Abstract Anime Soundtracks | Soundtrack | Similarity to Model Album | |------------|-----------------------------| | Serial Experiments Lain (Nakajima) | Shared glitch/ambient unease | | Texhnolyze (Hirano) | Both use silence and decay, but Texhnolyze is more industrial | | Mushishi (Shiina) | Calm, organic loneliness—but Sonny Boy is electronic | | The Eccentric Family (Shimizu) | Whimsical and folk-tinged, but less fragmented |
