Their label Polyvinyl had rescued the famed American Football house from potential destruction, so the band took the opportunity to move in and write together. Over the course of a month, Anamanaguchi - pioneers of hyper-melodic 8-bit rock, whose extraordinary ascent has led them to topping charts with virtual pop star Hatsune Miku and scoring Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game and Netflix's Scott Pilgrim Takes Off - flipped their typically meticulous digital process on it's head. Anyway, the result, is the most personal record of their career. And it's a rock record for the ages.
Recorded straight to tape by Grammy-winning rock producer Dave Fridmann (The Flaming Lips, MGMT, Sleater-Kinney), Anyway united the members around live instruments and lyrics sung by everybody in the band. As Anamanaguchi has always been an instrumental band, the decision to sing suddenly confronted them with the question of what the band's voice would ultimately be. They explore this newfound power in every song, making it their most emotionally resonant work yet. Anyway captures a band creatively and personally energized by the experience of four best friends reviving their connection in a disconnected world. On "Rage (Kitchen Sink)," the band confront loneliness and boredom, two epidemics of the digital age that seem to be humanity's only common bond. The power-pop ballad "Darcie" finds inspiration in small gestures from a local unsung hero, who brightens their lives and allows unforeseen amounts of fun to happen. Taut and dynamic, "Buckwild" is a rock sing-along that serves as the album's genesis story: a band making an effort to do something new, while accepting the risks that may bring. [USA], Anamanaguchi's critically-acclaimed second album and debut for Polyvinyl, anticipated a crucial cultural shift in moving from escapist, nostalgic fantasy to a more introspective exploration of digital identity. Described by Pitchfork as the band's "most emotionally grounded record," [USA] laid the foundation for the openness and honesty that defines Anyway. Where [USA] made sense of life online, their third album Anyway ventures into the world outside the front door.
