Nagoya kei band
kein will release their first album on August 21st.
Hakai to souzou's release date coincides with both the 23rd anniversary of
kein's disbandment in 2000, and the 1st anniversary of the band's reunion in 2022.
The album will be available in two editions, both containing twelve tracks. These include re-recordings of five songs released during
kein's initial three-year run in the late-'90s.
kein was co-founded in 1997 by future
lynch. guitarist Reo, together with vocalist maco and bassist
Yuki. The latter duo would later form
deadman with guitarist
aie, who joined
kein in early 2000. The current line-up also features
101A drummer
Sally.
A preview of the music video for
kein's self-cover of
Danro no kajitsu (originally released in 2000) can be watched below, followed by a lyric video for
Uso, a re-recording of their 1998 debut single.
