Legendary rock band "kein" finally made their major label debut last year and will release their 2nd EP "delusional inflammation" on July 9! New artist visuals have also been released!
Rock band kein's second major EP, "delusional inflammation," will be released on Wednesday, July 9.
kein is a five-piece rock band consisting of Makoto (vocals), Reo (guitar), Aie (guitar), Aki (bass), and Sally (drums). kein was formed in Nagoya in 1997 and quickly rose to the height of their popularity, but sadly disbanded in 2000. Their second major label EP, "delusional inflammation," contains five songs. The title "delusional inflammation," named by vocalist Shinobu, translates directly to "delusional inflammation. This meaningful phrase is also reminiscent of the band's dark and radical worldview. Like their previous EP "Paradoxon Doloris," all five songs on this album have been newly written, and we hope you will enjoy this album, which is filled with the fruits of the evolution that each member has achieved through their respective artistic activities, such as lynch.
The band's new artist visual has also been unveiled. The simple monotone image of the band gives off the hard-edged atmosphere of a rock band, and the powerful gazes of the band members, as if they are appealing to the audience, are also very impressive.

In addition, an in-store event to celebrate the release of their 2nd EP "delusional inflammation" will be held in Osaka, Nagoya, and Shinjuku. The events will be held in Osaka, Nagoya, and Shinjuku for those who purchase the limited first edition.
The details of the live tour to celebrate the release of the EP "delusional inflammation" have also been announced.
