momoclo5thDetails of MOMOIRO CLOVER Z’s second album, titled 5TH DIMENSION have finally emerged.

The colourful idol outfit launched a mysterious new website to promote the new album at www.5thdimension.jp. The site included a special game in which album song titles were gradually revealed based on a complicated system of bashing buttons on your computer.

The album will feature the outfit’s previous singles Roudou Sanka, Mouretsu Uchuu Koukyoukyoku・Daiaana Gakushou ‘Mugen no Ai’, Otome Sensou and Saraba, Itoshiki Kanashimitachi yo as well as a selection of new songs that will feature various collaborations, such as Get Down! which was composed by Damian Kulash (OK GO) and Joukyu Monogatari -Carpe diem which was penned by Zopp.

Meanwhile, the images that have emerged to promote the album have been said to represent a form of ‘evolution’ and show the 5 Momoclo members sporting bizarre spiked head coverings. Perhaps they’re ‘evolving’ into sea urchins. They turned into trees for the pv to Saraba, Itoshiki Kanashimitachi yo so anything’s possible.

  1. Neo STARGATE
  2. Kasou Dystopia
  3. Mouretsu Uchuu Koukyoukyoku・Daiaana Gakushou ‘Mugen no Ai’
