The band celebrated their 10th anniversary on September 13th last year, and will release their major 3rd full album "CIRCUS" and Blu-ray & DVD "Novelbright LIVE TOUR 2023 ~ ODYSSEY ~ FINAL SERIES" at Yokohama Arena on April 3rd, 2024!

Today, arrangers who are active at the forefront of various genres are participating in all 7 new tracks on the major 3rd full album ``CIRCUS''!

M-1 "Mission" is a song with impressive powerful sound and lyrics, while M-2 "Awesome Life" is a fast-paced song that is sure to get the crowd excited at live shows. These two songs were arranged by Murayama Jun, who has worked with the band on numerous projects including M-15 "ODYSSEY".

ESME MORI participated in the arrangement of M-4 "Sensation", and it is a memorable song with a nostalgic sound.

M-5 "サクリファイス" is the first collaboration with Jazzin'park's Kubota Shingo since M-11 "嫌嫌" which was released in March last year and is also included in this album.

M-10 "名残" has an electro sound and was arranged by SUNNY, who has worked on numerous hit songs.

M-12 "Empire feat. Novel Core" features the arranger TeddyLoid, who is active across genres, and is Novelbright 's first guest song featuring Novel Core, with whom they hit it off during a joint tour.

Furthermore, M-13 "Turn Back Time" is a song with lyrics entirely in English, and JIGG, who is active mainly in Japanese rap, participated as an arranger.

The cover photo for the major 3rd full album "CIRCUS" was also released today. The cover photo, like the artist photo released the other day, was created based on the concept of the "CIR" prefix of the album title "CIRCUS", which stands for "circle", "connection", and "loop". The illustration incorporates elements of the title "CIRCUS" while also incorporating elements of the journey so far and to come, such as swords and ships, creating an image reminiscent of the strength that has been traveled so far, like an adventure story. The "circle" part represents the band's desire for people to listen to the album on a loop over and over again, as well as the "connections" that have been made up to now.

The first limited edition comes with a special three-sided case and picture label, a DVD containing the complete performance of "Novelbright LIVE TOUR 2023 ~ ODYSSEY ~" at Zepp DiverCity (TOKYO), and a special 48-page photo book of all-new photos.

The cover photo of the Blu-ray & DVD "Novelbright LIVE TOUR 2023 ~ ODYSSEY ~ FINAL SERIES" at Yokohama Arena has also been released!

The Blu-ray edition uses live photos of the band members performing powerfully on the center stage at the Yokohama Arena concert, conveying the power of the concert as it is, while the DVD edition uses live photos of the band members with their backs shot, conveying the unity of the venue.

They will be holding a solo tour "Novelbright LIVE TOUR 2024 ~CIRCUS~" starting with a performance at Kanamoto Hall in Hokkaido on Saturday, April 6th, and visiting 25 locations nationwide, so if you are attending the live show, be sure to get your tickets.
