Fujifabric Bring their Friends for Upcoming Album!
Three-member rock band Fujifabric divulged more information about their upcoming album, I Love You. Releasing on March 10, this will be the latest album done by the band since F back in April of 2019 and will be their eleventh album overall. The new album produced on the theme of love includes "光あれ” (“Hikari Are”), produced by Takeshi Kobayashi and released in June last year, and "楽園" (“Rakuen”) the opening theme for the second season of the TV anime Dr. STONE.
I Love You will contain a total of nine songs, including tracks that will have three guest collaborators. Of these, it was revealed that JUJU will participate as the first collaboration artist. JUJU covered Fujifabric's song "Letter" with her cover album "Oreno Request" that released in October last year. With this as a trigger, vocalist and guitarist Soichiro Yamauchi made a guest appearance where he performed on JUJU's live broadcast "JUJU's Day Live Jujuen Special Oreno Request”, where the two groups deepened their friendship. Yamauchi commented “I made a demo sound source with the feelings I felt and offered her a collaboration.” The title of the song is "赤い果実" (“Akai Kajitsu”). JUJU said, "I never thought that the day would come when I could participate in Fujifabric works, and for me, it's been a long time since I decided to do a live without expecting so many things, so this song participation is already like a jumble.” "It was a reward," said Yamauchi. “‘Akai Kajitsu’ was created with the addition of sweet harmony must be on the album as the best dance number that can be danced no matter what the bitterness. I am grateful that it has become an important song.”
As previously reported, the album will drop with two editions: a CD-only standard edition and a limited edition that will come with a bonus Blu-ray. To hype up the release, Fujifabric also released the music video for “Akai Kajitsu”, which is available below, along with the pre-order links for I Love You!
