Chibasilz Marten Liner Notes - Love Song for Gyan

Marten
Lyrics and composition by Boal
Released on YouTube on October 1, 2022

This is Chibasilz's sixth song, which resulted in a ban from the town's live hall and rental studio due to the "name incident."

During this time, Chibasilz had moved their practice space to Boal's grandfather's old barn.

As Gyan didn't have drum equipment, they had to gather the minimum essentials like a snare drum and bass drum.

jim and Boal brought small amps and had been practicing and having meetings together.

In this old barn, Gyan had an opportunity to talk about themselves. They must have felt like sharing something.

Gyan cherished their Marten boots very much, explaining in their own words that they only had one pair of shoes, which they brushed daily, occasionally treated with mink oil, and even slept with a blanket covering them. They didn't tolerate anyone touching their boots, expressing their love for them.

Boal, who admired Gyan, was deeply moved by hearing Gyan speak for a long time. Inspired by Gyan’s feelings towards their boots, Boal composed the song "Marten."

Gyan seemed both very happy and shy at the same time. The drums in this song are played more powerfully than usual, likely expressing their love for the boots in their own way.

Boal also seems to have started enjoying playing the guitar. There's a sense of improvement, albeit still being a novice.

Jim expressed his regret for not being able to perform live but supported the two in their recording endeavors.

In the MV for "Marten," the items held by the puppets are named after the belongings of the main members.

Boal has a red beret received from their grandfather, Jim has a handkerchief from their favorite brand, and Gyan has a brush for polishing Marten.

Despite having been stabbed in the side once because of their Marten boots, Gyan feels grateful to them for bringing them together with this band and has decided to continue cherishing them.

"Marten" is Gyan’s love song. Boal feels happy, as if they have gotten a little closer to the Gyan they admire.

It seems that Gyan received the boots from someone, but they didn't disclose that information to either of them. It must be a precious memory for sure.
