Rock Band Sid Performs Altair: A Record of Battles Anime's Opening Song
posted on by Egan Loo
The rock band BS-TBS channels.
SID created the new song "Rasen no Yume" (Spiral Dream) specifically for the television anime. The band's vocalist Mao wrote that he thinks his band was able to create a "cool song with a sense of tempo" that matches the story after poring through the manga. The song's CD single will go on sale on August 2 in three versions (a limited first pressing with a DVD, a standard edition, and a limited standard pressing with an anime illustration).
The manga's story centers on Mahmut, a young member of Türkiye Stratocracy's council who holds the political and military title of Pasha. The council's combination of warmongers and pacifists divide it. The threat of war and danger from the belligerent Empire put Türkiye's safety at risk. As the country's youngest military leader, Mahmut is determined to keep the peace. But with so much at stake, a long history of enemies and alliances draws the young man far into a political world he hopes to keep in check. The Pasha's journey is not easy, and war may prevail despite his efforts.
