Dance rock band
DISH//'s first album
MAIN DISH will be released in two different types on January 14th.
The limited edition has 13 songs plus one bonus track
Mata ashita., which is the first to be written by the band members. It also comes with a 40-page booklet and a bonus DVD featuring digest footage from their concert in Osaka and a "virtual date" with the band members. The regular edition has just the 13 songs.
DISH// was formed on December 25, 2011. They made their début with the single
It's alright from an indie record label. After the début, they appeared during events almost every weekend at shopping malls. One day, a staff member told
DISH// that there is a group who sing at shopping malls in the US too. The group is
After Romeo. The
DISH// members became intrigued and offered to put on a show with them, and their manager agreed on the condition that
DISH// would have to come to Denver.
DISH// decided to go and took the stage as an opening act for
After Romeo at Orchard Town Center in Denver, Colorado, US on September 13th, 2014. The new album includes a cover of
After Romeo's song
LOL in Japanese.
Around the same time,
DISH// travelled to Los Angeles from Denver to pose for pictures included in their first photo book
DISH// 1st PHOTO BOOK - DISH// to JUNON to LA to - . The photo book also includes long interviews with the members and unpublished pictures.
In addition, they had their pictures taken for their publicity shot and jacket covers in Los Angeles. On the limited edition's jacket cover they wear "happi," a traditional Japanese coat usually reserved for festivals. They will also hold a concert at the famous Nippon Budokan on January 1st. Through the jacket cover of the limited edition, you can feel their determination and hope for the concert and the future.
