“Two Moons” and “Goodbye" are two very captivating tracks. ”Two Moons” has a mainly acoustic vibe, with a vibraphone part that makes it melodic and light. On “Goodbye," Japanese singer Toki Asako collaborates with Toe to create a pensive and moody song.
Other songs on the album ride on Takashi's beats, which are sometimes reminiscent of Toe's original groove. Many of these songs are structured with a slow intro, followed by repetition, finishing with a climax. Noticeably upbeat tracks are “You Go," “Can't Hear Mosquitone Anymore #2," and “Long Tomorrow."
Toe's second album may sound at times like an extension of their debut, but the level of experimentation in For Long Tomorrow provides the light, upbeat sound the band was looking for. If Toe continues to innovate and improve their music, they'll be crossing continents and gaining new fans soon.
