To commemorate their 20th anniversary, 9mm Parabellum Bullet has announced that they will be releasing a best-of album exclusively for digital distribution on July 31st. The best album will be the first in 10 years since “Greatest Hits” released in 2014, and the songs included will be decided by fan voting. You can vote on 9mm Parabellum Bullet’s 20th anniversary special site (https://columbia.jp/9mm/20th/), and everyone who votes will receive a “20th anniversary original wallpaper image” as a gift. In addition, a playlist project is being held to commemorate the release of the best album, and we are looking for playlists with a free theme, and each member will choose the best works from among the applications and create a playlist on Apple Music and Spotify. The plan is to publish. The recruitment period for both will be until June 12th (Wednesday), so please be sure to participate.
In addition, the jacket photo for the new song “Catharsis”, which will be distributed on June 12th, was also released. The jacket was designed by Ryotaro Kawashima, who has recently designed 9mm Parabellum Bullet’s works, and the design links the strength/intensity of the song to “Betta”, a fish in which males fight each other violently.
“Catharsis” has also been chosen as the theme song for the real escape game “Escape from Night Pirate Amusement Park” to be held at amusement parks across the country.
9mm Parabellum Bullet will celebrate their 20th anniversary this year in 2024, and on May 31st (Friday) they will be releasing a Blu-ray containing footage of their Nippon Budokan performance held on September 19th last year and their “19th Anniversary Tour.” Released the work “act VIII”. Additionally, a pre-bakuon viewing event for “act VIII” will be held at Shinjuku BLAZE on May 22nd (Wednesday), and a floor live performance commemorating the release of “act VIII” will be held at Shinjuku FACE on May 31st (Friday).
