The vinyl cover for C-ute’s Arigatou ~Mugen no Yell~ / Arashi wo Okosunda Exciting Fight! has been released.

LPs are rapidly growing in popularity with many stores in the US such as Urban Outfitters offering LPs and players in stores for those looking for an alternative to CDs and digital mediums so thankfully H!P seems to be on board.

The tracklist seems similar to most of the other CD offerings:

Side-A

1. Arigatou ~Mugen no Yell~
2. Arashi wo Okosunda Exciting Fight!
3. Gamusha LIFE (Acoustic Ver.)

Side-B

1. Arigatou ~Mugen no Yell~ (Instrumental)
2. Arashi wo Okosunda Exciting Fight! (Instrumental)
3. Gamusha LIFE (Acoustic Ver.) (Instrumental)

Still, the addition of Gamusha LIFE is a nice addition so fans can enjoy the Acoustic Version in all of it’s glory. Likewise, I’m loving the look of the cover with a stylish look that fans will love with a tilted fashionable theme.

It will be released in November with reservations being set until October 26 so get a copy if you can!

C-ute’s 9th album, currently untitled, has been announced.

The announcement was done at their recent concert performance where they performed a track titled IRON HEART from the album for fans to enjoy.

A concert recording for the song is available but since it’s only available as a download of a rip I won’t be able to link to it, but as soon as a Youtube link is provided I’ll update the post. Regardless, the song is epic, it has an upbeat sound to it with guitars and a jumpy feeling to it that sits an anime perfectly.

I’m hyped for this album! The release date currently being mentioned is for December 23 (pending a store link confirmation), so make sure to put it on your Christmas wish list.

The MV for half of C-ute’s upcoming single titled Arigatou ~Mugen no Yell has been released.

News for this single is coming fast! We just revealed the covers for the single a while ago and thankfully it seems like we are getting the MV for half of the single we haven’t had a chance to experience yet.

It’s basically a soft ballad sound accompanied by a montage of C-ute rehearsing for the song alongside images of wrestling. Some might argue, what do the random wrestling shots have to do with a slow song? Sure, at times the music and the shots of people wrestling seem to contradict at times but the lyrics are a perfect fit with a strong focus on hard work resulting in success.

Instead of the upbeat song we heard for the other half of the single we get a chance to enjoy a song that many would sing after winning a tournament.

Check out the MV for yourself after the break, but so far it seems like this release will be amazing.

The single will be released October 28 so it’s just a matter of weeks!

The covers for C-ute’s 28th single titled Arigatou ~Mugen no Yell~ / Arashi wo Okosunda Exciting Fight! have been released.

We reported on the preview of the cover being released quite recently, so not surprisingly we now have all the covers to enjoy at our leisure.

From what I can tell it seems like we’re in for an amazing release, and it’s a relief to see that the somewhat bland but fashionable Regular A cover is only a drop in the more stylized versions. The one that stands out the most for me is definitely Limited D, with a warehouse as the background and cool poses it seems to sum up the energy of the song we had previewed a while ago.

I encourage fans to pick up a copy or two to support the group since it seems like they’re rising quite rapidly to become among the main groups in Hello! Project.

The release date is set for October 28.

A preview for one of the cover’s for C-ute’s 28th single titled Arigatou ~Mugen no Yell / Arashi wo Okosunda Exciting Fight! has been released.

From what I can see it seems to be a bit standard with a picture of the members staring at the camera with smiles in front of a blue sky. Unfortunately, it doesn’t give us much of an idea of what to expect but it is a great photo if you enjoy simpler covers.

We should be getting the rest in a manner of weeks so definitely stay tuned for the update!

The release date is set for October 28.

So far it seems like it was quite a solid and fun concert for fans who attended the concert. Various pictures of fans have been appearing in social media with many performing choreography outside of the venue while they waited.

Not many reports have been posted yet, but hopefully we get some footage soon to check it out for ourselves!

A full preview for C-ute’s 28th single titled Arashi wo Okosunda Exciting Fight! has been released.

We’ve heard a short preview that was released recently, but now we get to listen to the full song and it can be best summed up with one word: epic. Exciting, full of guitars, and fast paced to make for an amazing song that matches the title well.

So far we’ve heard at least one-half of this double a-side single but if Arigatou ~ Mugen no Yell sounds as great as this song then we’re in for an amazing release.

The release date is set for 10/28.

Check out the song after the break!
