Sen is also releasing a new music video for “Jupiter,” directed by his brother Yuya Morimoto. Sen explains:
I sang a song at 6 years old, I didn’t know yet what it meant” I sing as the band starts up Jupiter. We’re live in Japan and I’m thrilled to look out into the audience but when I sing this lyric, all I see is my life in a series of flashing lights, suddenly I’m swimming by portals to memories, unable to make time to stop. I’m swimming towards something but I’m not sure what. The video utilizes live footage from our tour in Japan and old family footage of myself to visualize where my mind goes when I’m singing this song.
