Japanese indie rock band Gesu no Kiwami Otome is set to release their fifth single, Tatakatte Shimauyo, on January 24th – their first new single in 2 years and 3 months, and the theme song for the popular action game Clash Royale.
It has been announced that the song Black Parade (Remix by AmPm) from the single will be exclusively released in advance on Spotify.
Black Parade was originally coupled on the band’s 1st EP Dress no Nugikata (2013) and remixed by enigmatic masked duo AmPm, who boast over 14 million plays on Spotify. The remix is much different from the original, infused with a danceable, foot-stomping vibe.
Tatakatte Shimauyo is already available to listen to on Spotify and iTunes so be sure to check it out.
The physical version of the single will hit shelves imminently. The band dropped a full music video for the title track on YouTube just last week, so give that a listen in anticipation for the CD.

Gesu no Kiwami Otome’s latest album “Daruma Ringo” took the top spot for 2 days in a row on May 9th and 10th in the Oricon Daily Album charts. The band have just released the music video to “DARUMASAN,” the fifth song from the album to receive a music video. Check the video out here: https://youtu.be/3pQtogSWF3A
This music video is quite different from anything else they have put out there. The music video is of such a high quality despite it being filmed in only 3 hours during rehearsal in the run up to their premium live show on May 10th. The video showcases their incredible talent as musicians. In it, we see tiny “daruma” (traditional Japanese doll) and “ringo” (apples) scattered around the set, and the “Daruma Ringo” itself which was used as the album’s cover artwork also makes an appearance. We also get to see Mani Kato’s influence over the gorgeous lighting.
During their premium live show on May 10th, the members faced the audience and scattered the daruma and apples which appeared in the music video to the audience.
Comment from Mani Kato (Director)
Just as the title of the album suggests – this album that is an amalgamation of the forbidden fruit which knows both good and evil, and the daruma, a lucky talisman which always rises no matter how many times it falls – I took that very motif and included it in this music video. I used the daruma in line with the song’s stop-and-go melody. When the daruma fall, everyone stops, but when it rises, they start up again. I hope for everyone to colour both of their daruma’s eyes black.*
(*Translator note: When someone receives or purchases a daruma the eyes are usually blank. When that person sets a goal, they colour one eye in black; when they achieve that goal, they colour the second eye in)■Information
