The 5th full-length album from Alter Ego, a club jazz trio that has created numerous dramas with beautiful, poetic melodies and cool sounds.

(1) "Birth of Junk Jazz" with a bouncing rhythm and driving phrases, (2) "Nothing to loose" with a modern jazz unfolding from an authentic piano trio sound, (8) "窓を見て、そして過去になる(Look at the window and become the past)", which the melody invites tears and leads life positively, and the title song (9) "We'll be always on your side" featuring a warm sound,etc. There's a melodious and full of Alter Ego style.
"Our sound continues to snuggle up at any time".
A full-fledged work with a gentle determination for listeners.



美しく詩的な旋律とクールなサウンドで数々のドラマを描いてきたクラブ・ジャズ・トリオ、Alter Ego(オルター・エゴ)の5thフル・アルバム。

跳ねるようなリズムにドライブ感のあるフレーズが乗る(1)「Birth of Junk Jazz」、オーセンティックなピアノトリオサウンドから繰り広げられるモダンジャズ(2)「Nothing to loose」などのダンサブルな曲から、儚げなメロディが涙を誘い、人生を前向きに導いてくれる(8)「窓を見て、そして過去になる」、暖かな響きが特徴の表題曲(9)「We'll be always on your side」など、メロディアスでエゴ節溢れる曲まで幅広く揃っている。
"We'll be always on your side(いつもあなたの味方です)"「私たちの音はどんな時でも寄り添い続ける」リスナーへの優しい決意が込められた渾身の1作。
