Press Release: SCANDAL Releases First All Self-Produced Album “YELLOW”!

Lizz press release, SCANDAL 2016-03-09

SCANDAL releases new album “YELLOW”, their first all self-produced album!

A new original album is released right before another world tour and the band will be celebrating their 10th Anniversary on August 21st!

Barely days after completing their domestic arena tour, SCANDAL – one of Japan’s strongest all-female forces in rock – have announced the international release of upcoming seventh album, YELLOW. The 13-track record is their first to be entirely self-produced, and will be released in the US on 4 March 2016 through iTunes, ahead of the band’s tenth anniversary and second world tour. SCANDAL burst out of Japan and completed their first world tour in the spring of 2015, playing an impressive 41 solo shows across nine countries.

YELLOW covers a lot of ground, exploring SCANDAL’s usual upbeat pop-rock style, combined with touches of SKA, heavy rock and punk. It includes recent singles “Sisters” and “Stamp!”; the latter of which was written and composed by guitarist MAMI while on tour outside of Japan, both songs making it into the weekly top ten of Japan’s Oricon chart. The album also features “Chiisana Honoo”, the theme song from their world tour DVD, which is the first time the song has been available on physical or digital formats, as well as a re-recording of “Your Song” from previous album HELLO WORLD, now featuring full English vocals.

SCANDAL has hit Japan’s music industry running, and hasn’t stopped since. With their fresh, upbeat take on pop-rock they were able to win the award of “Best New Artist Award” at the Japan Record Award while they were still teenagers. Since then, all six of their studio albums have reached the top five of the national album charts and they continue to be well loved at home and abroad. In fact, they are so influential amongst girls in Japan that there have been battle of the band competitions for the last four years consisting solely of SCANDAL cover-bands.

With the release of YELLOW, this bright band’s future is looking ever brighter!
