XaaXaa’s single Boku to OD (僕とOD) may not be released until March 27, but the music video is already available for your viewing pleasure. The music video made its world premiere on February 23 via YouTube, to an enthusiastic reception of live commenters.

The high-speed music video bursts with a neon swirl of toxic colors. The blend of heavy elements and punk rock chords creates a dynamic atmosphere, making the song feel longer than a mere two minutes and 35 seconds. Musical distortion and unsettling graphics enhance the heavy bridge, guiding vocalist Kazuki down a path of final farewells and the choice to leave the world behind—the cause of death: overdose.

This unique blend perfectly encapsulates XaaXaa’s style, pairing painful lyrics with an irresistibly catchy tune. Despite the emotional turmoil depicted in XaaXaa’s songs, by the end, you’ll find yourself feeling invigorated and alive.
