「Higanjima Jack」
Long time no see, everyone.
We’re already a week into December. Time sure flies, huh. To tell you the truth, 9mm was being busy especially last month as we were recording like previously announced. We’ll tell you about what we’re going to do with the recorded material later but just to reveal one thing right now, the first of the songs we’re releasing is “Elevator ni Notte“, the b-side to “Inochi no Zenmai“. To say “it’s a waste to have this as a coupling track” is an expression that’s been very overdone already, but unfortunately that’s the only way to describe this song. At any rate, even when we finished mastering it and started recording another song, the band, staff and engineer were all still thinking “it’s such a waste“. But, someone saying “guys, it’s going to get released anyway, what’s with saying it’ll go to waste?! (laughs)” allowed us to calm down. To sum it up, I just want lots of people to hear it. I thought I’d just make this one long, drawn-out blog praising myself, but I’ll restrain myself and get back on topic. Sorry about the long introduction.
Just like the title says: “Higanjima Jack“
Oh dear, just what’s that all about? (laughs)
To make it a little easier to understand:
Higanjima(‘s website will be)
Jack(ed by 9mm, so do take a look at it~!)
That’s it. The clever individuals among 9mm fans would probably be able to guess what it’s about with this alone, but we’re jacking the site of the movie Higanjima on the 9th.
We’re sending out the details on our email magazine, so check that out for more information. I’ve shown you beforehand how the site’s going to look. It’s quuuite intrusive. I feel really good about going into someone else’s website like this with our shoes on. (laughs) Definitely do have a look, everyone. Well, it’s only like that for the 9th though.
Speaking of the 9th, we’re playing with Midori at Shibuya AX on that date. It’s not only just the fact that we get to play together with Midori, but that it’s overall also our first show in a while that makes me look forward to it. We might play new songs or we might not. I’m not revealing anything even if it is the day before the show. (laughs)
Everyone, be careful not to catch influenza or any other viruses. With that, later.
