ATARASHII GAKKO! release new single "HANAKO"
J-pop act ATARASHII GAKKO! have unveiled their new single “HANAKO” today.
The new track comes with a huanting music video just in time for Halloween. The Sayaka Nakane-directed visual can be seen below.
The act said this about the new song:
“This song is based on the theme of the classic Japanese school horror "Hanako in the toilet", and just like the previous one, the producer received a manicure mark, and the lyrics were written by the new school leaders, and it is a strange and cute song.
This is a ghost story. It's scary, but I want to see it, "Hanako" a girl who appears in the school bathroom. If you call your name in the third toilet, you might answer and it might appear.”
“HANAKO” is available on digital services right now.
Before 2022 comes to an end, ATARASHII GAKKO! will have festival appearances at Hanazono Expo and Head In The Clouds Jakarta. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public here.
