Taking influence from jazz, blues, fusion, soul, funk, rock, pop to groove, with a high pitched back up singer and a milder one for a frontman it really helps the band with vocals, as does the great work they do on the songs instrumentals. They released their first mini album "the space of the sense" in 2005 and the second one "THE MUSIC HUMANIZED IS HERE" in 2006. They released their First full major album "Rapture" on march 19 of 2008 and have continued to produce and cover a steady flow of albums and songs since then.
In 2007 they went major (under AVEX) and released some singles and full albums. In 2011 they decided to quit from AVEX and started their own label "STYLE_MISSILE". In the end of 2014 they went back to major (under Nippon Crown).

UNCHAIN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
left bbehind in the distant
summer day
It is faraway, thunder lingers
on my ears
Your shadow edged with sunset
still touches my heart,
and won't let go
in a blink of an eye
If you open your ears,
you'll hear the sound
You won't get lost or cheat
in the maze
If you open your eyes,
you'll see the lights
There are many doors
The moment you took wings
for the unleashed world,
I found eternity
I'll still get to meet you
in the changing season
Waygoing times overlaps
like a dream, I found eternity
This moment goes on forever
in your eyes
I wonder how many times
I made you cry back
in those days
It was the smell of rainy
asphalt, I remember
Your tears flowing down
still touching my heart,
and won't let go
As if everything was
in a blink of an eye
If I open my ears,
can I hear your voice?
I will be honest to myself
If I open my eyes,
can I see the light?
I won't look at the ground
The moment you took wings
for the unleashed world,
I found eternity
I'll still get to meet you
in the changing season
Waygoing times overlaps
like a dream, I found eternity
This moment goes on forever
in your eyes
It's just my precious, precious
And it's too precious for words
Just for me, glowing,
flowing, blowing...
When I opened the door
to a whole new world,
I found it in your eyes
The moment you took wings
for the unleashed world,
I found eternity
I'll still get to meet you
in the changing season
Waygoing times overlaps
like a dream, I found eternity
This moment goes on forever
in your eyes...
In "Precious," UNCHAIN reflect on the past and the memories that stay with us forever. The lyrics open with the singer wondering how many things were left behind in the distant summer day, hinting at a sense of nostalgia and longing that permeates the song. The thunder lingering in their ears and the edge of the sunset on the loved one's shadow continue to touch the singer's heart, capturing the fleeting beauty of a moment that cannot be recaptured. The second verse is more introspective, as the singer questions the things they might have done wrong and regrets that they might have caused tears to flow. However, they also express a desire to be honest with themselves, to see the light and not cheat in the maze of life.
Overall, the lyrics of "Precious" convey a bittersweet sense of time passing and the ephemeral nature of life's most precious moments. The singer's reflection on the past is tempered by the realization that, even though those moments are gone, they can still be found in the eternal present of memory.

I wonder how many things left behind in the distant summer day
It is faraway, thunder lingers on my ears
Your shadow edged with sunset still touches my heart, and won't let go
As if everything was in a blink of an eye
遠い夏の日にどれだけのものを忘れてきたのだろう
僕の耳の中で遠い雷鳴がまだ残っている
あなたの影は日暮れと共に僕の心を縁取り、残って放してはくれない
まるで全ては瞬きの中のように
If you open your ears, you'll hear the sound
You won't get lost or cheat in the maze
If you open your eyes, you'll see the lights
There are many doors
もしあなたが耳を塞ぐのをやめ、その音を聞いたなら
迷路の中でも正しくあり続け、迷いはしないだろう
もしあなたが目を開けて、その光を見るのなら
そこにはたくさんの扉がある
The moment you took wings for the unleashed world, I found eternity
I'll still get to meet you in the changing season
Waygoing times overlaps like a dream, I found eternity
This moment goes on forever in your eyes
あなたが解き放たれた世界に向け翼を広げた瞬間、僕は永遠を手に入れるだろう
移り変わる季節のなかで、僕はきっとまだあなたに会おうとするだろうから
出発の時間は夢のように重なりあい、僕は永遠を手に入れるだろう
あなたの眼の中で、この瞬間は永遠になる
I wonder how many times I made you cry back in those days
It was the smell of rainy asphalt, I remember
Your tears flowing down still touching my heart, and won't let go
As if everything was in a blink of an eye
僕は何回あなたをあの頃に引き戻しただろう
あの雨の日のアスファルトの匂いを今でも覚えているよ
あなたの涙は流れ落ち、僕の心を揺り動かしては放さない
まるで全ては瞬きの中のように
If I open my ears, can I hear your voice?
I will be honest to myself
If I open my eyes, can I see the light?
I won't look at the ground
もし僕が耳を塞ぐのをやめたら、あなたの声を聞けるだろうか？
きっとこれから自分に正直であろうとするから
もし僕が目を開けたら、光を見れるだろうか？
もう足元は見ない
The moment you took wings for the unleashed world, I found eternity
I'll still get to meet you in the changing season
Waygoing times overlaps like a dream, I found eternity
This moment goes on forever in your eyes
あなたが解き放たれた世界に向け翼を広げた瞬間、僕は永遠を手に入れるだろう

@jahmman8984
I don't know why this song all ways brings me to near tears. Beautiful song.💙
@Molten_Pig
Unchain is probably my favorite band as of now, I can't believe they're so niche though.
@arrived4rci
Jesus christ, how come only a few thousand people know about this song? I wish this was an anime opening. It would have definitely gotten the attention it deserves
@cyclonemarx7020
Tbh for me, it might work as an anime ED due to the tone of it. Then again that’s my opinion
@Aspartamebraintumor
this band was the reason I bought my first strat guitar. I've been trying to play similar music in some way since 2009. guitar harmony overload
