"Opening" is an album recommended to those who are looking for sounds and insights that are new and different, yet for some reason feels familiar. Album's concept is to energize and "renew the self", becoming more aware to "open up" to create a more accomodating world, with an underlying theme of love throughout. The album contains rhythmical, upbeat songs and a mellow ballad song along with a cute bonus track, Banana Bread. One song is even in Japanese! Songs in this album wish to address a basic view to life, "what's most important for me/us now?", following the aftermath of the financial crisis.
