Rock band THURSDAY'S YOUTH announced recently that they are planning to crowdfund their next mini-album.
The campaign, which is available here, met its goal of 1,000,000 yen on the very first day it launched, but the members are working on a few stretch goals and extra tiers for fans who still wish to get their hands on some limited items. It will run until October 31st.
The currently untitled mini-album will feature six new songs, including the three tracks available in the digest preview below: Kiseki, Nakamahazure and #Songwriter. An extra song will be added if the campaign reaches 150% of its goal, and they will create an MV for a track from the release if it reaches 200%.
Once the mini-album is complete, it will be released on subscription services, as a high resolution digital download and at live venues. They currently have no plans to distribute a physical version in stores.
The band members expressed that they wanted this project to be for fans who are genuinely eager to hear new music from them, so the returns are mainly music-based. Returns available include a CD version of the release, a high resolution audio version, exclusive T-shirts, separate audio tracks of each member's part or featuring a member's part muted, a cassette tape featuring unreleased songs, digital audio of the members' rehearsal and recording sessions available in real time, and more. The most expensive tier offers up the master license for the release.
