Okinawa-based trio HOME has announced that they will be releasing their new album, “HOME EP2,” on Wednesday, October 16th. The lead single, “Kime,” was released today, Wednesday, September 18th.
HOME released the album “HOME EP” in December last year and has been steadily gaining attention in Asian countries, performing at festivals and events in Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, etc. This year, they have also performed at major festivals such as “FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL’24” and “SUMMER SONIC’24”.
“HOME EP2,” the sequel to “HOME EP,” will include five songs in total, including the currently released “Plastic Romance” and “Tell Me,” as well as the EP version of “Kime,” the popular live song “Still Dreaming,” and the twin vocal track “Memories” by seigetsu (Vo.) and shun (Gt.).
“Kime” is the first song where the band members have approached funk. It is a danceable song with a synth-based groove, a chorus with beautiful falsetto voices, and experimental and chaotic guitar. The lyrics express an original worldview, as if finding confusion in the heart pattern from the random arrangement of wood grain. The artwork was created by member o-png (PC), and is a charming design featuring wood grain.
Furthermore, the band will hold a self-produced event, “THE FLEUR AT CLUTCH,” on Saturday, October 12th at their hometown CLUTCH in Okinawa. HOME and Dongurizu will perform as live acts. In addition, their first solo live show since March this year, “HOME PARTY’24 FALL,” will be held on Wednesday, November 6th at CONPASS in Shinsaibashi, Osaka, and on Friday, November 8th at WWW in Shibuya, Tokyo. Tickets are now on sale to the general public.
