Jigsaw9 6783 Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) 浅井健一 (Kenichi Asai) will release his new solo album "BLOOD SHIFT" on 2019/09/25, in two types: regular CD and limited CD+DVD. The full-length will come a year after his last album as 浅井健一 & THE INTERCHANGE KILLS, and 5 years after his last solo one. No further info yet, although it's safe to assume that songs will be included from his recent single and digital releases.

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) His new song "MOTOR CITY" will be the opening theme to the anime series "ノー・ガンズ・ライフ" (No Guns Life). If you skip to the 1-minute mark you can hear a sample. Sounds very Kenichi-ish as expected! Fun fact: the last time (I think?) Kenichi's song was used for an anime series was exactly 10 years ago - "MAD SURFER" as the ending theme of "BLEACH".

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted October 24, 2019 Can't believe we're finally here in 2019 but for once they uploaded a Kenichi music video that can be viewed outside of Japan too. ...and if that wasn't enough, they upped the PV of "METALLIC MERCEDES" too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
