BAND-MAID has revealed the artwork for their first studio album in about three and a half years, “Epic Narratives,” which will be released on September 25th! It has also been revealed that the music video for “SHOW THEM” (under the name BAND-MAID with The Warning), which will be released in advance from the album on August 7th, will be released on YouTube at midnight Japan time at the same time as the album’s release!
The artwork for the new album was once again produced by SAIKI (Vo). The artwork is eye-catching, depicting the scenery surrounding the tower, a motif that was also symbolic in the packaging design for the 10th anniversary concert released in March. Images of the bonus items have also been released, so try to find what you’re looking for! The early reservation bonus is available for reservations made by tomorrow, August 7th.
In addition, the music video featuring the two bands performing together, which will be released at the same time as the release of BAND-MAID with The Warning’s “SHOW THEM,” which will be distributed in advance from the new album, will premiere on BAND-MAID’s official YouTube channel! A teaser titled “BAND-MAID vs The Warning,” which shows members of each part contrasting each other, was released on social media and YouTube Shorts of the world-famous BAND-MAID and the Mexican national trio of sister bands THE WARNING, and attracted a lot of attention. The music video was filmed in Tokyo when THE WARNING visited Japan. This is the only video where you can see the two bands performing passionately against the backdrop of Tokyo’s cityscape and skyscrapers, so it’s a must-see for rock fans!
