Background

The album was announced on August 9, 2014, at their performance in Rock in Japan Fes, as being due for release later that year.[2] The duo performed songs from the album in October and November 2014. Some of the new songs were subjects of continuous rearrangements by Yasutaka Nakata from time to time, with the final versions included in the album. After several months with no further word of the album's release, Unborde announced on November 28, 2014 the album title, track list, cover and promotional photo.[3]

An untitled song from the album, later revealed as "Feel Again", was used as a tie-up song to the illumination Christmas show project of Canal City Hakata.[4][5]

A new version of the Appleseed Alpha movie theme song "Depth" with Toshiko Koshijima's vocals was included in the album.

gollark: I think making a less efficient Python program (with intensive mathy things done via numpy etc. which use bindings to C) makes a lot more sense than having a possibly-faster C program which takes several times longer to write, in most cases.
gollark: It's a poor performance decision (although you can just use pypy, which doesn't have that), sure.
gollark: Although all the tooling and CPUs are optimized for the C model, so good luck changing anything ever.
gollark: You could do that, but you might as well use a sane, nonC language.
gollark: Yes.
