SPEED Brings Music Box Full of Memories!
Popular Japanese girl group and industry staple SPEED are celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a special box set. Titled SPEED MUSIC BOX -ALL THE MEMORIES-, the boxset will be released on January 13, 2021! SPEED debuted in 1996 with their single “Body & Soul” and have earned many awards over the years, such as New Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, and Pop Album of the Year, just to name a few. SPEED did disband in 2000 and went on to concentrate on their solo careers, reuniting occasionally over the years, such as 2001 and 2003, to release new material. In 2008, they got back together and released new material, however, in 2012 they once again disbanded. Arakaki Hitoe left the group and did not renew her contract after their disbandment in 2012.
On SPEED’s official website, a Teaser was posted on October 6 with the taglines “25th Anniversary” “SPECIAL RELEASE” and “Wait a moment until 10:00 JST October 13th”, hinting at the box set.
