Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra is celebrating its 35th anniversary since its debut, and while the “NO BORDER Trilogy” will be released over three consecutive months, the artist photo, music video (short version) and documentary for “Memory Band feat. SUPER EIGHT” were released on YouTube today, September 26th.
The artist photo is a stark difference from the one released on August 8th for “Ano Natsu no Aimai ME feat. SUPER EIGHT,” and has a somewhat nostalgic feel to it.
September 26th is the day that Skapara’s original song “Memory Band” was released in 2018, and in the documentary released today, each member talks about their thoughts at the time.
It has been announced that the full-length version of this music video will be included in Skapara’s original full album “35,” which will be released on October 23rd.
In addition, a performance version of the song itself will also be included on the album, and both versions will be exclusive footage that can only be seen on this album.
SUPER EIGHT have performed this song many times on television and at live shows, and it was recently performed on the Skapara stage at ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL 2024 in HITACHINAKA, where it became a hot topic.
If you’re interested in the music video for this song, check out Skapara’s website.
“Memory Band feat.SUPER EIGHT” Music Video (Short ver.) + Documentary
The CD of the original full album “35” includes a total of 15 songs, such as “Kaze ni Tatagu Blues feat. TAKUMA (10-FEET)”, which was released as the 35th anniversary kick-off single of their debut, “Ichinichi Hana feat. imase & Narashino High School Brass Band”, “Ano Natsu no Aiai ME feat. SUPER EIGHT”, “Falling Flowers feat. Masaki Suda”, which are currently being released as part of the “NO BORDER” Trilogy, and “The Last Ninja”, which was also the theme song for the movie “Migakiwari Chushingura” starring Muro Tsuyoshi. It also includes “Memory Band” with SUPER EIGHT as a bonus track.
The “CD+Blu-ray” and “CD+DVD” versions, which include bonus footage, will have the same content, including live footage from the LINE CUBE SHIBUYA performance from last year’s tour, “2023 HALL TOUR “JUNK or GEM ~Autumn&Winter,” live footage from the “35th Anniversary Special Performance Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra x Billboard Classics at Kawaguchiko Stella Theater,” and music videos for a total of eight songs.
The 【Fan Club Exclusive Edition】 includes a selection of the best tracks from the “35th Anniversary Special Performance Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra x Billboard Classics at Kawaguchiko Stella Theater” on CD Disc 2, an LP-sized paper jacket, and an instant group photo, making for some very luxurious content.
