I wrote it when I felt that moment and made it into a song from the bottom of my heart. But it was really tough when I sung it today... I usually live my life forgetting about that feel, so every time I sing or listen to it, it makes me think that there are moments like this in life...but".[45]

On April 22, Haru Nemuri had released her second full album, Shunka Ryougen, which contained twenty-one songs including all singles released from 2021 to 2022.

‘For everyone who feels left behind by the system and the confines of what is considered ‘normal’, who continue to doubt themselves and suffer while living in the present, may this album, the hardcore punk of 2023, the feminism, exist for you. It was created with all my prayers.’[84]

Critical response

[edit]

Anthony Fantano of The Needle Drop reviewed her debut album Haru to Shura, mentioning that "Haru Nemuri's debut album pushes J-pop/rap in an exciting direction by channeling Japan's rich history of underground rock music."[90]

Haru Nemuri's Shunka Ryougen had been hailed by Pitchfork ("Blending elements of J-pop, rap, and hardcore, the experimental Japanese artist's latest album presents a convincing balance of nihilism and hope."),[91] and also from The Fader,[92] Spectrum Culture ("Nemuri looked to the balance of life and death and represents their intersection. That's why the album is as celebratory as it is volcanic),[93] Stereogum ("We named genre-exploding Japanese musician Haru Nemuri, who mixes pop, rock, and hip-hop into her own beautifully experimental cocktail, one of the best new artists of 2018."),[94] and Ones to Watch ("Treasure. We are constantly looking for it and by its very nature it remains elusive....everything about Haru Nemuri is comfortably atypical.").[95] Spin stated "Rather than merely recreate her debut, Haru Nemuri chose deconstruction for her second album. The word appears throughout Shunka Ryougen's song titles, and it's key to how the record reconfigures Nemuri's blend of art rock, noise pop, and hip-hop"[63]

Artistry

[edit]

Influences

[edit]

Haru Nemuri has mentioned Shimura Masahiko (Fujifabric), Seiko Oomori, Shinsei kamattechan, Björk,[96] and Susumu Hirasawa[97] as her major influences. She also mentions Fugazi had taught her what hardcore is and The Clash and Yeah Yeah Yeahs showed her that "rock 'n' roll can exist as art".[98] She also mentioned Rage Against the Machine had taught her "Art exists in a dimension that is inseparable from society and (thanks to them) I learned how to think about that responsibility."[98] Nemuri expressed her love in Aurora's music and contacted the producer duo MyRiot who worked with the artist to co-produce Nemuri's song "Déconstruction".[99]

She has covered some of her influences' songs, including "Police State" by PussyRiot which she mentioned was another huge inspiration (Nemuri performed the song with PussyRiot at the Flood Fest held at SXSW 2022).[100]

Ideology and themes

[edit]

Nemuri has touched on her ideology in regards to punk; she believes it is about love, anger, and even kindness itself, and living in this world and society, where she personally feels that it is inevitable or very natural to be associated with feminism.

She has introduced herself as a "riot grrrl",[101][102][103] which she believes is "one of the few 'names' that I feel I can use my energy to live with or fight against the inconveniences and biases that come from advocating it."[102] In her interview with Japanese media Natalie, she said, "Within myself, my music is inherently pernicious and cannot be harmless to everyone. If it is treated as harmless by bias or prejudice, I think that's not right, and would like everyone to touch it as such."[45] Nemuri mentioned, "There's no way it's not violent to appeal something to someone. I don't want it to turn into war, massacre, or discrimination, so I'm doing music. I know it's hot and depressing. 'Do you know how mankind won democracy? It must have started with anger!'"[104] Nemuri added, "Taking away the power to think is the easiest way for those who rule and those who obtain wealth. It may sound like an exaggeration, but if this sounds like an exaggeration, you've probably been robbed. I think art is the most peaceful way to fight against such things. That's why I want to compete with art."[104]

Nemuri often uses the word "Rock 'n' Roll" in her lyrics and mentioned, "I think that rock'n'roll is something that continues to become new all the time. Change is a very scary thing, but if you don't continue to update, in the true sense you won't be able to be kind."[5]

In an interview with Billboard Japan, Nemuri explained, "I try to make sure that the voices of the parties concerned aren't lost in my words. I also try to consider each time whether the anger I'm feeling is really something I should be expressing... I'm open about the fact that I'm a liberal feminist, so people who defend contrary positions don't approach me very often...They're for me; I write my songs in desperation, in order to survive. Things that are done in desperation have energy, so there might be people who are pulled along by it, and I also believe that writing songs and presenting them is a violent act like hitting someone. I compose and write lyrics feeling pain, coexisting with the thought that 'people might be better off not knowing things like this.' It's almost like I'm experiencing life through pain."[105]
