First Album from HANABIE

Metalcore band HANABIE will release their first full-length album on January 17th.

Otome kaikaku - which translates as Girl's Reform Manifest - will contain ten songs, including the title track of their 2019 single L.C.G. These were mostly composed by guitarist Matsuri, and all produced by CRYSTAL LAKE support drummer Gaku Taura. Three days ahead of the physical release, the album will be available for streaming on the 14th.

HANABIE was formed in 2015 while Matsuri, lead vocalist Yukina and bassist Hettsu were high schoolers. They debuted in 2018 with the Taura-produced mini-album Kaika Sengen. Current drummer Sae joined the band in late 2020.

The music video for Reiwa Matching sedai and a preview of Sentimental☆Heroine - both of which appear on Otome kaikaku - can be watched below, alongside a trailer for the album.
