[A] music in sakanaction's first thread [サカナクション] - Page 2

^ Ugh, sucks that their stuff is blocked for you. I had no idea either since I've always been able to access their videos but I guess it's some weird region thing.

Seems like SORATO hasn't been released in any other way, just the music video on YouTube, so no wonder you missed it. If you're interested in hearing the song and can't access it, I can try and rip it.

Oh, and what a good time to start discussing their releases again, because they just announced three new releases coming soon!!

First, their first best album named 魚図鑑 (Sakanazukan; Fish Picturebook?) will be released on March 28th! It comes in several different editions (Fully Produced Limited Premium Box with 3CDs and Sakana Daizukan booklet; First Press Limited Edition with 2CDs, DVD/Blu-ray and Sakanazukan booklet; Limited Edition with 2CDs and Sakanazukan booket), all limited it seems? The editions with 2CDs will include 34 tracks (including Shintakarajima, Music, Yoru no Odoriko, and one new song), and the third CD included in the Premium Box edition will include another 15 songs. The DVD and Blu-ray discs will include 20 select live performances of the songs on the album. The booklets will apparently contain "a large amount of data about their songs".

Second, they will release a live DVD & Blu-ray of "SAKANAQUARIUM2017 10th ANNIVERSARY Arena Session 6.1ch Sound Around"! Release date TBA.

And finally, they're bringing a still-unnamed new studio album! Release date TBA.

This is great news! And we just discussed no new material yesterday

As if the best album jam-packed with content wasn't enough, we'll get a new studio album!

That would be wonderful, please!

I'm really looking forward to the new studio album more than anything but I'm also curious about the 15-track special third CD in the box edition of the best album!

Here's SORATO for you.

The sound quality isn't the best, but I hope it's fine enough!

thinkingoutloud89 · #24 3rd February 2018, 12:06 PM

kinda want the limited edition

Meat Pao · #25 3rd February 2018, 12:28 PM

Holy shit I had no idea there was a sakanaction thread. Tabun, Kaze and SORATO are 10/10. I especially love how they transition from Identity to Tabun, Kaze in their lives throughout 2017:

Crossing fingers that they perform at Fuji Rock Festival this year cos I'll be going!!

Kacku · #29 22nd February 2018, 09:41 PM

Sakanazukan tracklist:

Spoiler:

I think Kagerou is the new song mentioned in the first announcement? I can't remember or find a song with that name in their discography.

I can't believe they didn't include Eureka, Sayonara wa Emotion, or moon/SORATO! They have terrible taste, lol.

And this seems to be the track list for the DVD/Blu-ray disc included in the First Press Limited Edition:

Spoiler:

Meat Pao · #30 23rd February 2018, 03:58 AM

^ I have a feeling they'll put Sayonara, Eureka, Tabun Kaze and SORATO in the new album coming out later this year! Doesn't make sense not to include Tabun Kaze tbh, they perform it so much you'd think that it was a hit with the fans.

Not so stoked over the 3rd disc's tracklist but I'll wait till pictures of the packaging come out to decide if I should get it!!

Kacku · #31 23rd February 2018, 03:39 PM

^ Oh yeah, I completely forgot to consider that they might be put on the new album, especially with Sayonara and Eureka being so old. And I do find it a bit weird that Shintakarajima is on this release, but not Tabun, Kaze or any of the other singles.

I'm not too excited about the 3rd disc's track list either, I thought it would have some more special content.

Xianghua · #32 25th February 2018, 02:01 AM

omg I'm devastated that Eureka and Sayonara wa Emotion isn't included. (and no goodbye??? or did i read it wrong)

MY FAVORITES! but I will settle for them being included on the new album

My guess is that it's probably too different from their other songs that they feel it wouldn't fit on the studio album? Plus it was a huge hit in Japan apparently, cos my godsis who studies there said when it came out it was playing almost everywhere, so it's probably there to help push units too!

They'll be competing with 2 best albums ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION's releasing on the same day, so looks like they'll occupy the top 3, just not sure in which order haha

Edit: Turns out AKFG won't be releasing 2, but 3! Lol

Xianghua · #36 26th April 2018, 07:40 PM

I bought the 2CD version of Sakanazukan yesterday so I took pictures of the packaging and some interesting parts of the booklet.

At first I was like "book of fishes? what is that suppose to be?" but the 'fishes' are their songs!

so each page contains a song, facts like length, recording time, release, ect. then a paragraph description and lyrics. It's pretty cool!
It has some information on the members and some pictures of actual fish as well lol

Spoiler:

Of course I can't take pictures of the whole booklet because it's a lot but if there is any particular song you want, I can do!

Meat Pao · #40 7th February 2019, 05:19 PM

Hey guys! I'm planning to ballot for tickets for their 2019 tour via LINE Ticket but I'm feeling a bit apprehensive about it because I can only enter the ballot if I type in my name in katakana (I have an English name, and the system literally says my name is invalid when typed exactly as in my passport w Eng characters).

I'm a little afraid they might reject me at the door since it won't be an exact match as my passport, and I'm all the more doubtful cos I can't pay with an overseas credit card (though I'm planning to use my godsister's who lives in Japan, but again going back to the name thing, I'm just hoping it's not a case where they won't allow foreign attendees).

Has anyone had any experience with a sakanaction gig to help clear my doubts?
