New RURUTIA mini-album: Hyousa (氷鎖)!

[apple-pi]

This hasn't been posted yet, right?
Anyway, I just found out about this! I'm so excited, I though she was going to take a long break before her next release, but this is going to be released this month ~ April 30th!
The cover is gorgeous, as always ^^ From the thumbnail at her official website, it reminds me a bit of luciole's works (from deviantArt - I love her artwork!)
I don't think it's listed in CDJapan yet, and the tracklist doesn't seem to be out either. But I'm really looking forward to this, Opus was awesome!

FINALLY! I was thinking about her recently come to think about it ^^ Thanks so much, I'm sooo looking forward to it!

[CatGirl]

I'm pretty excited for it too! RURUTIA's music is sooo amazing. And the cover is absolutely gorgeous!

[Calico]

I knoooow I heard about this the other day and I'm so excited! RURUTIA is just in a whole league of her own in awesomeness. I hope though that it'll have more new songs than Opus.

[KuroixShiroi_Namida]

omg RURUTIA~ Awesome! Can't wait.

[WillofDusk]

Oh yayyyyyyyyyyy!!!! Altho I lost all her music, it'd be good to have something new instead

[Yoake]

wow nice cover!!

[Rurutia]

I loooooooooooooove rurutia...hence my username lol...she's my second favorite singer...followed by eiko shimamiya....Ayu's #1

There's just something about Rurutia's music that's just sooo..different...She has her own style and I love it...can't wait for it to come out

[ayu_ready?]

greaaat! I love her stuff

From CDJapan:

New eight-track mini-album from Rurutia includes a new ballad track, one additional new song, four classic Rurutia tracks remade into ballads, and a music box-style track as a bonus track!

Seems it's going to the same as Opus ~ I'm not really bothered though. You can just look at them as singles rather than mini-albums (few new songs, remixes of the old & new ones) ^^
I just hope the new songs will be released in her next full album~

[kirei_ayumi]

OMG rurutia!!! I love her! OPUS was indeed awesome! I can't wait to hear this one.. rurutia should promote herself more then she'll have a bigger audience of fans. does she even have concerts?!

[AyUta]

This sounds really promising. I'm a new fan after hearing Water Forest and Chorion. I think her songs are really interesting. I really like how she uses rock ballads, those are one of my favs. I'm looking forward to this

But she is a mysterious girl, I heard. She doesn't like much to go out in public(Only for photo shoots and such)

[apple-pi]

Yeah, RURUTIA was one of my first J-Pop singer too =D

I think the only places she has ever shown herself (not counting PVs, though she rarely makes them, and CD covers) are an interview she did about Chorion (in which she talks in a really, really weird voice) and some photos of her in the recording studio that I've seen around the internet~ no one knows her real name, birthday or age either...

Huaka: You should really try her! She's a great artist! Listen to Water Forest or Promised Land first, I think those were her best albums. They're all great though (I think Meme was the weakest, but many people seem to disagree~).

[Huaka]

Wow, this Rurutia person always has such beautiful covers. I should try out her music sooner or later. I'm always entranced by the beautiful artwork.

[aqua_crystal]

OMG!!! RURUTIA'S BACK!!!!!!!!
I am sooooooo excited!!!!!!
Yaaaaaaaayyyy!!!! Rurutia was the main reason I fell in love with Jpop.

..... and yes I discovered Ayu two months after I discovered her.

[Miku]

and a bigger cover ^ ^

[apple-pi]

Thanks That's a mix of a dress and flowers, right? It looks cool
But, her wings look a lot darker in the larger version than in the old one. I wonder if they changed their mind about it or something?

[xiaou-xijiang]

awesome, awesome. And the album cover is just gorgeous!
