cali≠gari new album "15" release

Good news and bad news! The album will contain 13 tracks (instead of the previously mentioned 10), but it will also be delayed by one week, so the new release date is 2021/12/01.

CD tracklist (both editions):

  1. 一つのメルヘン (Hitotsu no Märchen)
  2. ハイ! (Hai!)
  3. 嗚呼劇的 (Aa gekiteki)
  4. ケセ (Kese)
  5. 裂け目の眼 (Sakeme no me)
  6. 腐った檸檬 (Kusatta Lemon)
  7. ニンフォマニアック (Nymphomaniac)
  8. 鐘鳴器 (Shoumeiki)
  9. 100年の終わりかけ (100nen no owari kake)
  10. この雨に撃たれて -死すれども冠を捨てず篇- (Kono ame ni utarete -Shisuredomo kanmuri wo sutezu-hen-)
  11. そして誰もいなくなった (Soshite daremo inakunatta)
  12. 四畳半漂流記 (Yojouhan hyouryuuki)
  13. 光と影 -His Master’s Voice- (Hikari to kage -His Master’s Voice-)

DVD tracklist (limited edition):

  1. ケセ (Kese)
  2. 嗚呼劇的 (Aa gekiteki)
  3. 四畳半漂流記 (Yojouhan hyouryuuki)

The bonus DVD has a lengthy subtitle that might indicate these might not be music videos but live-recorded in a studio space (?). It says this in case anyone wants to take a crack at it: 「PV撮影直前様々な申請と認可の壁に阻まれすべて白紙となり怒りに燃える担当が広過ぎるスタジオを調達しここで何とかしてくれと云う為別段驚きもせず何とかするキャリアの貫禄の違いを見せつけるスタジオセッションDVD」

Cover artwork has also been revealed:

A week is worth three additional songs - though it’s weird to me that they’re making such significant changes to the album this late in the game (especially when this is being put out on Victor and not Misshitsu Neurose.)

The two songs that were previewed online yesterday are on YouTube and presumably elsewhere now, pretty solid tracks. I’ve been listening to a lot of their post-reunion stuff lately so I’m hyped.

OMG another delay?? Leaving aside 15予告版 songs included, and つのメルヘン that was pre-
released, we’ll got 8 new songs! Great!!! I wonder if they continue to pre-release digitally song by song as they do until December,personally I prefer not, I don’t want “spoiler” lol

They’ll release 2 more 2-track instalments in the coming weeks (so all in all 4 more tracks):

I really enjoyed the first track released early. Let’s hope these compare.

Yeah, I’m looking forward to hearing the new ones on 10th November especially.

Now that I’ve listened to the latest batch they do sound a bit different compared to the single versions. While I didn’t care for 鐘鳴器 in its original incarnation, I quite liked the more noisy/vibrant sounding approach of this new one!

Next week we’ll be getting two brand-new tracks!

Oo that second one bangs. I haven’t bought the preview version of 15 (even though I want that Izon rerecording) so these are all new songs to me. It’s definitely sounding better than 14 so far.

@Missa Did you get any privilege where you ordered it? I saw on twitter that “card” bonus you can get are pretty big! Are more like panel

Nah I didn’t get any bonus goods - those might vary by retailer, but I just got my deluxe edition CD+DVD from CDJapan.

The packaging is nice at least. Cover art #3(#4?) is pretty cute
