COUNTJOKE (Facebook page), the unit of Maezono Naoki and Arai Toshiya (SoundCloud, Mixcloud), is back with a brand new song! It had been 4½ years since their previous single, although they had since contributed many songs and arrangements to other artists (including Wakita Monari and Smooth Ace). "A.D. 2200" features chorus sung by Hiroshima-based singer-songwriter Kurata Miwa. Hear it in the video below, or on your favorite streaming/download platform.
Announced at the same time as this single was that another titled "MOON RIDE!" will follow on July 27, and then a first full-length album by COUNTJOKE should be released this fall! Can't wait!
