Eri Kitamura new single "掌-show-" release

[Pretsy 1343]

Kinda late news (since the single is *out* already) but idgaf, moving on:

 

Kitamura Eri (seiyuu known for voice roles in animes like "Blood+", "Toradora!", "Highschool of the Dead" etc.) released a new single called "掌-show-" on 5/14, as a theme song for a new anime titled "Knights of Cydonia"

 

 

And the special thing here is (i think) the backup band for this single:

 

Guitar: Leda (ex-Deluhi, Undivide, currently as *staple* session guitarist (studio?) in BABYMETAL)

Bass: Ikuo (Bull Zeichen 88)

Drums: Junji (Bull Zeichen 88)

interesting to see Leda being active in these major j-pop affairs lately, lol.

 

also, according to his own twitter comment - he participated in Kitamura's affairs earlier, especially in her "SHOMEI"-album, where he arranged the first track (+ played guitar, bass, shamisen) and played support guitar in the third track (no YT link, but it's a Taisho-era jazz-like number + HE COMPOSED IT TOO).

and yeah, the new single is awesome

Song is so great. Full single is to be honest. Glad I heard it on the Sidonia episodes.
