MONO NO AWARE, whose new album “The Buffet”, released on Wednesday June 5th, has been highly praised all over the world, and the album release tour has seen sold-out shows in Tokyo, Osaka, Taipei, Sapporo, Kobe, Takamatsu, Niigata, and other places. They have now released the official video for “Angle” from the new album.
“Angle” is the final track on the latest album, “The Buffet.”
This song delivers a poignant message that although you can think about things from various angles, in the end you only have one perspective.
The video for this work focuses on the camera of photographer Shun Omiyama, who also shot the cover of the “Angle” digital release and 10-inch single, and by following his lens as he captures the members of MONO NO AWARE and the cityscape, it offers a glimpse into the perspective from which Omiyama captures each moment.
The video director is Risa Nishimura.
The 10-inch single “Angle” will go on general sale on Wednesday, July 31st, with “Angle” on side A and a remix by imai (group_inou) of the popular tongue twister-themed song “Kamukamo Shikamonidomo Kamo!” written specifically for NHK Minna no Uta on side B.
The band is also currently on their first national solo tour in about three years! The tour has now completed nine shows, all of which are SOLD OUT, but this weekend they will be holding additional shows at MACANA in Sendai on Friday, July 12th, GOLDEN PIGS BLACK in Niigata on Sunday, July 14th (SOLD OUT), GOLD CREEK in Kanazawa on Monday, July 15th, and Ebisu LIQUIDROOM on Thursday, August 29th.
The 10-inch single “Angle” will be sold in advance at the tour venues, so be sure to check it out.

Tamaki Shuhei and Kato Seiju, both from Hachijojima, Tokyo, met Takeda Ayako and Yanagisawa Yutaka at university.
As a result, even though they are in the pop arena, they produce a free sound that is not bound by genre or domestic or international boundaries, with a sound that hints at a diverse background, melody lines that defy expectations, and lyrics that are full of wordplay.
They were voted to perform on the main stage at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL ’16 “ROOKIE A GO-GO” the following year, and have since appeared at numerous festivals around Japan, garnering attention as a next-generation band.
In March 2017, he released his first album, “Life, Mountains and Valleys,” nationwide. In August 2018, he released his second album, “AHA.” In October 2019, he released his third album, “Kakegaenai Mono,” which includes the original songs “Kamukamo Shikamoni Domokamo!” for NHK Minna no Uta and “A・I・A・O・U,” the theme song for the movie version of “Sinking Family.” In June 2021, he released his fourth album, “Gyoretsu no Dekiru Hakobun,” which includes the theme song “Zoccon” for the animated film “Umibe no Etranze.” In April 2022, he wrote the ending theme song “Ajimi” for the new gourmet drama “Share Suru La! Instant Ramen Arrangement Club Hajimemashita” on BS-TBS. In May 2023, he released a cover of “Oyoge! Taiyaki-kun,” and in June of the same year, he released the single “Kaze no Mikage ga Kawatte.” In June 2024, they will release their first new album in about three years, “The Buffet,” and hold a nationwide tour.
