Returning

[Machine Translation] After many twists and turns, the band has completed "Returning," a work that is filled with everything that locofrank has accumulated to date, as if it were a "repeat" of what they have done. In order to keep the D.I.Y spirit, which is locofrank's philosophy, they have chosen to "go back to the roots" by leaving all operations, planning, production, and management of their own label, 773Four RECORDS, in their own hands from this album. This work, which was released in January of the following year, is a glimpse of the extraordinary determination of locofrank. After the release of the album, the band will embark on a nationwide tour entitled "Returning TOUR" from January of the following year. This will be the first national tour in about two years, but unlike the past tours, this one will be a one-man show in all locations. This tour will be an unprecedented challenge that should not be missed!

数々の紆余曲折を経て、ひたすらに己と向き合い完成させたこの「Returning」にはこれまでlocofrankが積み重ねてきた物を”反復”するかの様にこれまでの全てが詰まった作品に仕上がった。またlocofrankの行動理念でもあるD.I.Y精神を守り抜くべく、今作から自身のレーベル773Four RECORDSでの運営・企画・制作・マネジメント等の全てを自分達自身の手に委ね、”原点に立ち返る”事を選択したこの作品にはlocofrankの只ならぬ決意が垣間見える事と思われる。尚、リリース後の翌年1月より今回のアルバムタイトルを冠した全国ツアー「Returning TOUR」を開催する。全国ツアーも約2年振りとなるのだが、今回のツアーは今までとは違い全ヶ所、全てがワンマン公演となる。未だかつてない挑戦となる今ツアーは決して見逃せない事となるだろう!!
