RUBIA Leopard newest song is the dark and enthralling, Destination.
The song kicks off in a solemn fashion, slow paced and with the instrumental well in the back to give way for Makoto Furukawa’s haunting vocals.
I found the dark intro to be the perfect tone setter for this song with the delicate guitar notes in the intro almost resembling a sitar or harp, something that is an awesome touch to this imposing song.
Although the rest of the song isn’t that dark instrumental-wise, it was rather nostalgic detail to add to this song, very reminiscing of the intros of some of the most iconic early 00s rock/emo rock’s songs.
Destination then changes dynamics and introduces fast paced, snary drums, a deep bass line and shredding guitar riffs, going for a powerful display of the band’s trademark intense, robust rock sound.
The chorus is explosive, with the drums taking the spotlight away from all other instruments with a powerful beat and with cool toms’ fills adding a lot of flair to the performance.
On the vocal end, Makoto Furuwaka goes for a hot-blooded performance, relying on a lot of his natural vibrato to add a bit of drama to the song but also bringing a lot of control and charisma to the spotlight, making it impossible to take my attention away from him.
Destination is another remarkable entry in RUBIA Leopard’s repertoire that does an interesting spin on the band’s already solidified gritty and intimidating blend of grunge, emo and punk-rock.
On top of it you have Makoto Furukawa delivering yet another charismatic performance that will get your blood pumping faster.
