MUCC New Single and Movie Theme

MUCC has announced that they will be releasing an as-yet-unnamed single this September. The band's OHP promised more details will be released later.

They have also announced that the song "Kyorankyosho -21st Century Baby-" from the "Shangri-la" album has been remixed to be included as the theme music for a new Japanese horror movie titled "Fuan no Tane." The remixed version will be aptly re-named "Kyorankyosho RMX for Fuan no Tane" for the film. That movie will hit Japanese theaters on July 20.
