That's completely how I feel. My favorite tracks constantly shift. It's really an amazing album that each track sounds distinct yet feels like just one part of the whole. I almost feel like the album should never be listened to as a single track, rather it is meant to be listened to as a whole in one sitting.

Stylistically, it's also really interesting, because, what the heck is it? Is it a pop album? Jazz? Rock? Folk? The best answer I ever got was Shiina-kei.

Kuki was called Sei? Like, the character used? Because I know that she used the character 茎, which does indeed mean stem (or stalk).

EDIT: I've never heard of that artist before, but listening to his music and researching a little, he does sound like a less-Jazz/less-punk Shiina. I read that he plays all the instruments in his album. I heard for KZK, Shiina played almost every instrument (that she could) and then arranged the ones she couldn't.
