Can you sleep at night?flumpool

flumpool “Can You Sleep at Night?” Music Video

Can you sleep at night? flumpool

A flumpool track used as the theme song for both the TV anime and the theatrical films of Gamon Sakurai’s manga Ajin.

It’s such a departure from their previous work that you might think it isn’t even a flumpool song at first.

The vibe is dark and strongly rock-oriented, resulting in an uncompromisingly cool sound.

Yet, in contrast to the darkness of the melody, the lyrics convey a sense of hope that lifts up those who are lost, struggling, and in pain.

Winter’s cold can make it hard to look ahead, but this song gives you the strength to push down those gloomy, downward-facing feelings and face forward.
