Yes, Ichika Nito is a "fraud" for faking his "100% raw" viral clips when they are very obviously edited to be as perfect as (in)humanly possible. It's just too bad I don't really care about that all that much. I don't really care too much if an artist is able to play their music 100% cleanly live or not. While yes, Ichika Nito live is not 100% perfect, I don't mind too much if it's not note for note completely perfect.rAnyways... "The Moon's Elbow" is the long awaited debut album from Ichika, and honestly, it does kinda slap. He's always been up there with the Polyphia-type artists to me personally, and this album further influences my belief. I have been following Ichika's work throughout the years, and this very clearly feels like the most refined offering he's ever produced.rWhile yes, the album is quite Polyphia-inspired in some respects, especially in the more production- heavy tracks, Ichika's approach is more than enough to set it apart. I personally find these production-heavy tracks more replayable. While his stripped-back songs are superb, I often found them not the most replayable, and these "prod tracks" fix this issue immensely.
