CHAI’s latest album, WINK, is chicken soup for the pandemic-ravaged soul. Though, in this case, it feels appropriate to swap the soup for the karaage that earns a sultry dedication on the Tokyo-based band’s third LP. To help cope with COVID isolation, CHAI “made an album that was like a friend,” lead singer/keyboardist MANA says through the band’s interpreter Rena Tyner. “It’s an album that I can cry to, get mad at, and get happy with.
ADVERTISEMENT CHAI has always had a fondness for junk food. But on WINK, the band’s munchies were food for thought as they considered the kind of quarantine record they wanted to make. “The music we perform is great and I love it, of course,” MANA says. “But there’s something different between live music and the music that I listen to at home.” Using work-from-home playlists as inspiration, CHAI created a genre-defying album that expands upon their neo-kawaii or “new cute” aesthetic.
Lockdown actually afforded the band creative freedom. Unlike 2019’s PUNK, they didn’t have to make this album while on tour. There were no set deadlines, so they took their time—seven months, to be exact. The result is CHAI’s most confident record to date, which MANA says is no coincidence. “I literally didn’t have to think about certain things I usually had to think about, which gave me more time to think about other things.” Including the Black Lives Matter protests that erupted across the U.
