J-POP

Honestly, most of Kumi's 25th Anniversary last year felt a little lackluster for the overall majority of the 12 months. There weren't too many interesting releases, and all we really got was a rather unusual "live" audio best album and the DeCODE EP. But then she ends 2025 with this HUGE HIT. This concert is FANTASTIC from START TO FINISH. So many amazing performances. Great stage props, sets, costumes and more. Plus, the dancers and Kuu are on fire. Her vocals are also superb throughout. Keep your eyes out too for some subtle hints and references to past releases and tours. Not to mention several On-Stage costume and hair changes. The packaging is simple but cool, and it even comes with a cool post card and a large sticker. Definitely recommended!!

This album is one of her ABSOLUTE BEST original classics. It's very electronica based and has SOOO MANY great early songs including a concert staple she's performed at almost every tour over the years, Boys & Girls. Plus numerous others like Fly high, Trauma, TO BE, appears and more. The vinyls sound remastered. I'm pretty sure they used the audio from the Anniversary version from a few years ago, which all sound incredible. Also, despite it not being mentioned on the tracklist the hidden track kanariya IS included. It's gorgeous and recreates the original album in many ways. An interesting detail added to this LP Set is that both her name and album title are added along the left side of the front cover. There's also a beautiful folded slip in the first slot which flips open with the lyrics to every song and several photos. Very highly recommended!!!
