Heavy-hitting, hyper-pop, Harajuku-core purveyors HANABIE. have released a super-charged new single in "Karu Garu Everyday!!" The track serves as the theme song for the recently premiered anime series, Araiguma Calcal-dan - a spinoff series from beloved anime series, Rascal the Raccoon.
A collision of styles that has become signature for HANABIE., the single touts instances of heft and hard-hitting intensity, balanced with melody and breaks of infectious pop that make for a rollercoaster ride of a track. Vocalist Yukina spoke about the single and takeaways from the track that felt right in releasing it far and wide.
“Listening to the track post-recording, I found the song to be a blend of cuteness, emotional vibes, and surrealness… it made us all laugh with its perfect chaos and being packed with all kinds of emotions! The TV anime has a fun and laid-back vibe, making the tie-in fit perfectly! I hope it becomes a motivational anthem for our fans, giving everyone the energy to tackle each day! Go, go!”
Earlier this year HANABIE. announced an exciting headlining tour throughout the EU/UK.
