"At last. We are glad to announce that as of now, we are part of Coroner Records.

Coroner Records is an Italian record label with bands such as DISARMONIA MUNDI among others, and it was decided that they will also be releasing our fifth album. More details about the release in Japan and overseas will be announced in due course. This time we received a exciting contract offer by Disarmonia Mundi's main personality, Ettore Rigotti.

Apart from that, we are currently focused, spreading our wings towards the world and for this cause, we would gladly accept all your support and assistance. I am recording lead and solo guitar parts for BSC 5th album. I hope to play in Europe and U.S.A and all over the world!

Ganbarimasu!"
