Envy played only one show after the worldwide release of their critically acclaimed new album, The Fallen Crimson. In February 2020 – before COVID-19 effectively halted all live music worldwide, Envy performed a crazy, sweaty, sold-out hometown show at LIQUIDROOM, the Tokyo venue that has become sort of an extended living room for the legendary band. “We were lucky that we were able to play this one gig before all live shows were canceled“, says vocalist Testu Fukagawa. “The performance itself is a bit rough and we could probably have performed better, but we wanted to send our fresh feelings to our fans by means of this performance, while they can't see Envy live.”

The Fallen Crimson – the first new studio album from Envy in five years – is a record that almost never happened. Japan’s most iconic and influential post-hardcore band suffered seemingly insurmountable personal and creative struggles that challenged the very existence of the band like nothing they had experienced in their nearly three decades together. After reuniting with briefly estranged singer Tetsuya Fukagawa – and shaking up their lineup for the first time in 25 years – Envy return refreshed with their most dynamic and progressive work, The Fallen Crimson. Opening with the melodic thrash that made Envy so renowned in the first place, The Fallen Crimson finds the band perfecting their past, exploring their present, and pondering their future. It is the deepest, and most poignant album of Envy’s legendary career. It bears the stories and scars of a band whose relationships with each other are as dynamic and progressive as their music.

Celebrating the release of their new EP "Abyssal" and in conjunction with their forthcoming North American tour, Temporary Residence is proud to re-introduce Envy's breakthrough third album, originally released in 2003 on Level Plane Records, now repackaged and re-mastered. "A Dead Sinking Story" is widely regarded as an innovative high water mark for hardcore. "They would seem to fall into the 'emo' category, but they blow away 95% of today's practitioners of said genre" - Shredding Paper. RIYL: Tool, Isis, Mogwai, Hum, Explosions In the Sky, Botch, Cave-In, Thursday.

简单加上爆裂，却并非简单的爆裂，可以说是这张专辑的简单概括。
整张专辑从平缓到激烈起伏很大但是过度的很自然~很大器~
Envy 是一支来自日本的乐队，新专辑与前作不同的是偏向于悲愴的感觉。歌曲虽然只有七首，但歌词与旋律充分展现出所要表达的意念。首首展现出寂静与爆轰的特色，加上主唱极具张力的撕吼与纤细温柔的嗓音，以及壮大的旋律，充分表示心中思想所散发出的情感，会让人省思自己心中深处的感受。

envyの約5年ぶりとなる6thアルバム。収録曲数は少ないが、1曲1曲の作り込みが前作を上回る完成度の高い仕上がりとなっている。Mr.children、Superflyなどで活動するキーボーディスト・SUNNYがキーボードアレンジとして参加。2014年に発表したSo-net NUROのインターネットサイト用に書き下ろされた「Two isolated souls」を含む全8曲収録予定。
