Biography (for artist 3.) TRUE are a crust/death metal band from Samobor, Croatia. They formed in 2003. What separates them musically from other bands of their genre is an unique mix of death metal and melody of Croatian national instrument called tambura. Tambura is a string instrument, originally coming from Croatian island Brač. The idea of using tambura as a permanent instrument came spontaneously, which later became their style-defining element, and the main point of recognition.
Their first album Plastic World saw the light of the day in 2004. Next album Serum came out two years later, and was officially released in Mexico. Undisputed quality of this material, together with its excellent featured inlay design, secured them very good reviews and various significant local and foreign festival gigs. The third album is called "Still Life" and it was published in February 2010. under the hood Geenger Records.
Last and the current album "Symptoms" was recorded in the studio, "Depth" in Požega (2013). Produced from the hand of Philip Sertić and mastered in studio "As One" (Poland) owned by Smok.
Design and visual identity is done by design studio "Imaginarij" owned by Nikola Kovač.

あなたをずっとずっと好きでした
自分の気持ちだけをあんな風に
おしつけたみたいで ごめんね
言わずにいられない程
あなたを見る度に 苦しかった
困った顔しないでくれて
降り続く雪の中で
あなたは泣いたことがありますか?
ひとすじの温かさはすぐに冷えて
なぐさめられて突き放されるよう
言わずにいられない程
あなたを見る度に 苦しかった
困った顔しないでくれて
謝ってくれて ありがとう
言わずにいられない程
あなたを見る度に 苦しかった
言えば あなたを見る度もっと
苦しいと気づかずに
今度あなたと すれ違う時
どんな顔していたらいい?
何もなかった ふりはできない
出せない手紙 持ったまま
言えない言葉 すり切れるまで
どんな顔して会えばいい?
The lyrics to True's song "Letter" (in Japanese) are a confession of love expressed through a letter to the object of the singer's affection. The first stanza reveals the singer's long-lasting love for their recipient, admitting that they may have "forced" their feelings onto them. The second and third stanzas ask if the recipient has ever cried in the snow, feeling warmth that quickly turns cold and ultimately pushed away. The fourth stanza thanks the recipient for not making a difficult face and for refusing the singer with kindness. The fifth stanza confesses that every time the singer sees the recipient, it hurts, but if the singer were to express their feelings, they may be unaware of how much more unbearable it could become. The final stanza wonders how the singer should act the next time they pass the recipient after holding onto their unsent letter and unspoken words until they wear out.
Overall, the song expresses the regret and pain of unrequited love, and the fear of potentially ruining a relationship by confessing feelings. The symbolism of snow and warmth turning cold represents the fleeting nature of love, and the possibility of a strong emotion ultimately becoming distant and abandoned.
