I see what you did there with that reference, Atsushi *dorky snickering*
 
Hopefully Atsushi and co. will contribute something we have never heard before from BT's 13th Floor-era and so on (nothing wrong with the said sound, but repeating it would be a bit too much)
 
BT OHP posted songwriting credits too:

布袋寅泰 (Tomoyasu Hotei) will release his international debut album "Strangers" on 2015/10/16 through Spinefarm Records, featuring various international collabs.
 
Taken from the official site:
 
 
International ver. tracklist 01. Medusa 02. How the Cookie Crumbles (featuring Iggy Pop) 03. Kill or Kiss (featuring Shea Seger) 04. Move it (featuring Richard Z. Kruspe) 05. Barrel of My Own Gun (featuring Noko) 06. Kill to Love You (featuring Matt Tuck) 07. Strangers 08. Walking Through The Night (featuring Iggy Pop) 09. Texas Groove (featuring Shea Seger) 10. Into the Light 11. Departure 12. Battle Without Honor or Humanity   Japanese ver. tracklist 01. Strangers 02. Kill or Kiss (featuring Shea Seger) 03. Move It (featuring Richard Z. Kruspe) 04. How the Cookie Crumbles (featuring Iggy Pop) 05. Medusa 06. Kill to Love You (featuring Matt Tuck) 07. Battle Without Honor or Humanity 08. Texas Groove (featuring Shea Seger) 09. Barrel of My Own Gun (featuring Noko) 10. Walking Through the Night (featuring Iggy Pop) 11. Black Ships (Japan Edition Bonus Track) 12. Into the Light 13. Departure + DVD with the 2 lyric videos  
 
 
  Basically if you've been following Hotei's work closely (particularly his last album from 2014), this 'new' album doesn't have much novelty to offer, except maybe if you count that most of the tracks are re-recorded and featuring guest artists. Oh well...

they will hold their live tour "TOUR ULTRA-The Loud Engine-" at Kawasaki CLUB CITTA' at 2016/01/22, at Akasaka BLITZ at 2016/01/27 and at EX THEATER ROPPONGI at 2016/01/28

It's already available for pre-order on CDJapan, Yesasia, etc.

I'm expecting something either from B-T's side or Atsushi alone, considering he always spoke highly of Morrie as an artist (and I've seen photos of them going drinking together so I guess they're pals?). I hope LUNA SEA will participate too, considering they sort of picked up where DEAD END left of.
