Akari Haneda Shows it’s No Time Like the Present With Latest Release!

Up-and-coming vocalist Akari Haneda announced that she just released her mini-album 0時0分0秒 (0 Ji 0 Bun 0 Byo) across all digital music streaming platforms. Originally the physical copy for the mini-album was sold exclusively during her release tour at Nishi-EifukuJAM in Tokyo last December, making the digital release a godsend for fans who weren’t able to participate. The mini-album, which originally dropped with six tracks, will include an exclusive seventh track for its digital release.

Awesome City Club Shows Fans Their Vital Signs With Latest Music Video!

“Vital sign” Jacket

Ahead of their April 29 release, four-member rock band Awesome City Club dropped the music video for their upcoming track “Vital Signs” on their official YouTube channel. This one is set to be one of the lead tracks for their upcoming album Grow apart. The band hits the ground running by not only releasing the music video, but also the track, across all digital music streaming platforms. Turning fans’ expectations on its head once again, “Vital Signs” is an upbeat track brought to life through onion skin animation, which might seem unique to modern animation, but it’s those certainly out of the box ideas that bring the best out of Awesome City Club.

Grow apart will feature eleven tracks total and be the latest album release by the band since Catch The One last December and will be their second album overall since signing with Avex back in 2015. The album will drop with two editions including a CD-only standard edition and a CD + Blu-ray limited edition. The Blu-ray will include the entirety of their Awesome talks -Nice Buddy Tour 2019 tour which took place at Shibuya WWW X live house last December.
