Piano soloist Natsuko Nisshoku will release her fifth full album, Ginka, on Wednesday, May 14, 2025. The album will contain 12 tracks, and she has released the Music Video for the lead track, M1, Senkodan to Halation.

─ Natsuko Eclipse 'Flash Bomb and Halation' Music Video ─

The new album marks a new step forward for the band in their 16th year of activity. The lead track on the album is "Flash Bomb and Halation."
The sound is provided by the band members Yuki Numano (Gt), Kazuhiro Nakamata (Ba), komaki (Dr) and others of the Nisshoku CREW, who ran through the 15th anniversary project "Space Friendship" together, and the thrilling performance that literally emits a dazzling light stirs up excitement. This song is a symbol of the album, vividly depicting the protagonist who is boiling with impatience and sprinting with fighting spirit.

The music video was directed by Yuka Ueda, with whom she has worked many times before. The video is shot with a blindingly intense light, a driving piano music, and meticulous shots that accompany the powerful lyrics, capturing the intense passion hidden in the calm eyes of the singer.

The studio live broadcast held in 2024 and the unreleased song tour "Area Mirai" that formed the prototype of this work "Ginka". Natsuko Nisshoku's latest song has finally been released more than a year after it was first released. Please check it out.

─ Eclipse Natsuko comment ─
How long will I have to keep running and being chased?
How long do I have to live with this murderous aura?
I question the value of this life, which has missed its chance to become a flower that will heal a loved one.
If these feelings are to be spat out in frustration, I hope that they will at least scatter and shine as light.

<Natsuko Solar Eclipse Profile>
Born May 8, 1991 in Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture.
Started playing the piano at the age of 9 and writing songs at the age of 12. From the age of 17, she started full-scale music activities based in Morioka as "Nisshoku Natsuko". The meticulously crafted lyric world and composition techniques that sway the heartstrings have attracted attention, and have appeared in many large festivals. Released in 2021, "Anti-Freeze" was selected as a prize-winning work at the 14th CD Shop Awards 2022, and in recent years he has also written many new movie theme songs and commercial music. Nisshoku Natsuko's dense music that she creates one after another knows no bounds in creativity, and her musical ability and performance, including her unique composition style that expresses guitar, bass, and sometimes even percussion parts such as drums with a single piano, are outstanding. It goes beyond the imagination and framework of a piano-playing artist. Strength, weakness, sharpness, ephemeralness, the piano music that runs at full speed pierces the listener's heart and provides a unique musical experience.
