BUCK-TICK Reveal Exclusive Bonuses for International Release of "ABRACADABRA"

Rock veterans BUCK-TICK have revealed the exclusive CD cover art and bonus tracks included in the international edition of their latest album ABRACADABRA.

This will be the first international release for the band outside of Asia in its 33-year career, and it will be available from November 20th via London’s JPU Records as a limited edition tape cassette and a CD with an exclusive cover that features the band’s members. It's also available to download and stream overseas now.

Both versions of ABRACADABRA will include four bonus tracks; the single versions of Moon Sayonara wo Oshiete, Kemonotachi no Yoru, Datenshi and Kogoeru. This will be the first time these have been made available in a physical format outside of Japan. Both versions will also offer English lyric translations and romaji transliterations inside the packaging.

Speaking of the new album, BUCK-TICK's guitarist and main composer Hisashi Imai stated that "alternative electro" was the image he had in mind when he began writing music for it. He also revealed that the song Eureka was written while he was composing by himself at home after the current global pandemic plunged Tokyo into a State of Emergency midway through recording of ABRACADABRA, interrupting their progress for about a month.
