“Green Flash,” the lead track off Kroi’s third album “Unspoiled,” is a mid-tempo funk number that is finally being released after a string of up-tempo tie-up songs.
One of the charms of vocalist Uchida is the way she alternates between soulful vocal melodies and rap parts, and the band’s sound-making gives off a sense of free and unrestrained playfulness. This song was completed after Kroi continued to pursue a sound day and night in order to express a “new frontier” for them, and it is a song that sums up the colorful world of “Unspoiled.”
