First time I've seen it. But Namie News Network confirmed the title many days ago and this looks official, not some crap someone threw together to troll. Also, the image is new.

And we are not going to get a source, because whoever leaked it could definitely be fired/ get in trouble for leaking it.

It might be true. But this new banner with the (pretty simple) pic looks pretty different in design than then one we got last week. And the first info came out on April 1st last week.
I'm intrigued to see the annoucement!

The one we got last week was obviously a fan designed one for that Facebook page. It was solely based on the title alone. It was also missing the underscore that's in this announcement. Someone also mentioned that "_genic" was short for photogenic, which if true shows the banner on NNN was a misinterpretation is the title.

EDIT: NNN just posted the promo image.

[truehappiness]

Just what did they to do 'confirm' it?

There was also this thing floating around on Instagram.



I am just wary of stuff like this since well, Namie's team wouldn't put out an image like that.

[everlastingRAINBOW]

The point is, we will have an official announcement in under 24 hours.

I really hope it's real
I'm digging the funeral dress vibe from what we can see of Namie's outfit

Why is 12 songs titles but it says there are 13 songs?? I dont understand that...

[Beauty4123]

...I'm really hoping that all of this new info, for "_genic", turns out to be true! Because I am sooo loving that promo picture of Namie. It's just too fierce not to be real! And I'm liking the album's tracklist, as well...although, "It" is such a short title! I know Kana had "if" but I don't think I've ever seen a Namie song title that short, before. Regardless, I still love the rest of the titles, like "Golden Touch", "Stranger", "Scream"....please avex confirm all of this very, very soon! I am just so so excited.

[orangeakira]

I'm way too lazy to type the underscore. I'm just going to use "genic".

I'm assuming that one of the songs is still untitled which is why only 12 are listed. I'm also assuming that the way the songs are listed is not the order of the tracklist, since they're just listed alphabetically for the moment.

It's a lot of assumptions to make but imma go with it.

Your second assumption is right, there's "CD*順不同, which just means arbitrary order.

I thought I remembered seeing something along those lines but I couldn't be bothered to go back and check lol

[Delicious n Bold]

^LOL

I hope there's a song that REALLY gets me. The last time I've ever been entranced by a song ever in my life was when I heard the full version of Alive. I know that the previews we got was basically the whole song but damn when that came out and I cracked and played it, it was mesmerizing. I was on the bus and I was in a state such that my phone fell down (earphones still in my ears etc) and I didn't notice until AFTER the song was done. It was like Namie gave me a lil molly for like 3 min. Even to this day I couldn't believe a song had such a profound effect on me.

[chocopockymaster]

"Alive" is like a religious experience bb. Breathe it in. It might actually be one of my favorite album openers evarrrr

[stickyrice]

I get such a high listening to Alive. It's so... hypnotizing and euphoric but it also has this... "desperation" tone to it . I don't know how else to describe it. Definitely one of my favourite songs.

Got a fan space email.
Big news coming tomorrow (10th April), check out the official website, newspaper and television.

Hope we will get all the infos tomorrow with covers and everything.

The last line of the banner says "B2 Poster"? *grabs wallet*

[Earth_maiden]

^yep, b2 poster. Namie's albums are always stellar to me, can't wait!!

[chocopockymaster]

Digipak for first press as well, as per usual. I'm dying for the official announcement; I hope we get all the covers!
