Daybreaker Anthem is a song performed by Deep Cut.

Description

Daybreaker Anthem is a slow and sentimental song, similar in style to credits songs throughout the series. It starts with a soft introduction with Deep Cut's signature instruments, followed by Frye singing solo, with a duet between her and Shiver halfway. The second verse is sung by Shiver, with the second half of the verse leading to a second duet between the two in a round with a group of vocalists singing in a shima-uta style much like how Shiver herself sings. A bridge between the second verse and the chorus is then performed by Big Man. The chorus of the song has all three members singing once in unison to the tune of the song's introduction, and then again with Frye and Big Man singing together while Shiver sings backup vocals. Another verse begins with Frye, Shiver, and Big Man each singing a line in that order, then together they sing part of the chorus from Anarchy Rainbow. This then leads into a repeat of the chorus, with Shiver singing the first line and Frye singing the second. The chorus is then sung by Frye and Big Man, with Shiver providing backup vocals like earlier. The song ends with one final verse with all three members singing at once. Another instrumental plays to close out the song.

This song plays in Splatsville during the two-hour period between a Splatfest ending and the results for the Splatfest being announced, starting in Drizzle Season 2023 with the Shiver vs. Frye vs. Big Man Splatfest. It also plays as the default song in the lobby in Splatsville for 24 hours after a Splatfest ends. It is replaced by Maritime Memory in Inkopolis Plaza and Into the Light in Inkopolis Square.

Lyrics

The booklet included with Ordertune gives the official lyrics for Daybreaker Anthem. The lyrics are nonsensical; the Japanese hiragana and katakana simply give the pronunciation.

From 00:00 UTC until 02:00 UTC on 16 September 2024, after the Past vs. Present vs. Future Splatfest, an extended live band version of Daybreaker Anthem was played.
