BLOOD are about to release their new maxi-single, titled “Elizabeth” on October 26, 2011!
But aside from the news about their new single, there’s also something else the band wants to announce to foreign fans: the group will be coming to the United States and Canada for a short tour in mid-November! More information about that later, let’s focus on the single first.
The single will be released through Starwave Records, and even though the official release date is set for the end of October, you can secure your copy early by purchasing it as early as October 15th at their live show in 池袋BlackHole (IkebukuroBlackHole).
Starwave Records has published the following comment about the release:
“Consciousness is dimmed in your empty eyes, as fragments of life fall from your fingertips…
The second release by the new incarnation of BLOOD is a 2-disc set which includes a DVD containing the music video for “Elizabeth”!
For this single the group has recorded three of the songs that are most heavily featured at their live shows, with guest performances of Masa (from Dunkelheit), SEN (from marlee) and GPK (from GPKISM)! A live tour will be held in commemoration of the release, starting with a oneman live show at 池袋BlackHole (IkebukuroBlackHole) on October 15.”
