"Fellow subjects, it has been 20 years since the release of the album “stigma,” which marked a significant turning point in the history of the Fairy Empire. In this memorable year, a self-cover project, “stigma:Recast,” has been launched, in which all of the songs are reconstructed with a modern interpretation.
This project seeks to go beyond mere nostalgia and pursue “modern and artistic evolution.” The ephemerality of the past has been sublimated into unwavering “strength” through the passage of time.
Starting February 3rd, the album will be available for pre-release over three consecutive weeks. It will then be released sequentially on various streaming services, including Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music."
"Yousei Teikoku will embark on a tour of Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka under the title “Mode:HADES,” which focuses on a more aggressive and hardcore side of the band.
For this tour, everything from existing songs to performances and productions will be reconstructed into an aggressive Mode:HADES version.
Experience the new horizons of Yousei Teikoku, where unprecedented destructive impulses and exhilaration intersect."

The arrangements are too different! i am so used to the old versions, and this album being the first one i listened to makes me get protective, but it’s a fresh thing to hear, and i am always happy to check on everything they have to release.
