Jupiter (Buck-Tick song)
"Jupiter" is a song by the Japanese rock band Buck-Tick, released as a single on September 19, 1991, as part of their seventh studio album, Kurutta Taiyou.
The song is notable for its aggressive and experimental sound, incorporating industrial and noise elements alongside Buck-Tick's signature gothic rock style. Atsushi Sakurai's vocals range from melodic singing to distorted screams, reflecting the chaotic and intense mood of the track. The lyrics, as with much of Buck-Tick's work, are open to interpretation but evoke themes of destruction, rebirth, and existential questioning.
"Jupiter" is considered one of Buck-Tick's heavier and more challenging songs, showcasing their willingness to experiment and push the boundaries of their sound. It remains a staple of their live performances and is a fan favorite. The song's title, "Jupiter," likely refers to the Roman god of thunder and sky, reflecting the powerful and overwhelming nature of the music.
