Their new look is pretty cool, especially the singer's 

[Shir0 1303]

is it just me or does the vocalist kind of.. resembles MiA? anyway nice look!

[Lestat 2167]

Pretty look.

[smilesxchibi 265]

is it just me or does the vocalist kind of.. resembles MiA? anyway nice look!

I can see it, also reminds me of Jin back in his Nega days

[Shir0 1303]

True, it's the nose haha

[Black=Right 336]

The drummer reminds me of R-Shitei's drummer

[VkBrutaliaN 1890]

don't really know what to think of their new look... as long as their music keeps being as good as it is....

[ricchubunny 2013]

Nice, it doesn't look cheap like their previous ones. But i can't take them really serious because of this Hirotaka cosplay D:

Ugh,I guess they were due for their obligatory/dreaded swing VK song.

[Takadanobabaalien 3607]

sounds nice

[Lestat 2167]

Such a breath of fresh air again, I love this. 

[Kiryu999 3336]

This girl again? It's like the 3rd time they bring her in a PV.

Anyway it sounds ok, nothing special.

[VkBrutaliaN 1890]

ok now that pv/song kinda explains their new look... and i don't like it.... >.>''

I never understood the Overstock-of-Jo-Ann-Exploded-on-Me aesthetic. Too many patterns and textures.

sorry I don't know how to embed twitter videos...

 

 

Edit:

Oddly, I cannot find any info about this single at Rockstar Records' site or Avanchick's site. It is also not listed at CDJapan (I will e-mail them about it).

NOAH posted these a few days ago so I assume it is still coming out 10/28 as planned...

[Trombe 22025]

btw they will hold their one-man live "他人の不幸は蜜の味" at Takadanobaba AREA at 2016/02/05

[peffy 3568]

An update in case anyone cares..

 

CD Japan says they will not sell the new single because none of their suppliers have it. This is despite the fact that they are selling other releases from Rockstar Records (like Devil Kitty's upcoming mini-album),

"We made inquiries. Unfortunately, none of the record companies that we have dealings with carries it. So, we have no means available to get it supplied."

 

 

Avanchick & Rockstar Records' official sites, as far as I can tell, continue to not mention the single anywhere.

 

Avanchick vocal Noah still mentions the single with 10.28 release date in his Twitter bio, and as mentioned above, he recently posted previews of 3 tracks from the single. 

 

Amazon Japan has it listed for pre-order, so I have placed an order there. We will see if it gets shipped or not.

 

I am very confused.

Looking forward to the DVD. Perhaps I can make it to the oneman at Area as well.

[peffy 3568]

Update: Looks like Amazon is preparing to ship this single, so I guess there was nothing to worry about. Still weird that CDJapan couldn't sell it.

 

Information about the single has finally been added to Avanchick's OHP. You can see the cover artworks: http://avanchick.jp/music

 

Based on the catalog numbers, I guess Avanchick self-published this single, which is why Rockstar Records does not mention it on their official site. Maybe.

CDJapan has listed the latest single :

It would have a RSCD serial number if it were with Rockstar. Could be that they had it in the works before the label opened and just didn't have it released through them. I'm curious to see what their relation to the label is: a lot of events feature all of their bands but list Avenchick as "guest." They do have their one-mans listed on RR's site, though.
