Mr.Children reveal all of the details about their new album “REFLECTION”

It’s been a bit of a while since I’ve had something to post about here!  Now though, I have huge news regarding Mr.Children’s upcoming album; all of the information about the release have been revealed, and there were a number of surprises that I can’t say that anyone would have predicted.  So please, read on for a full brief about what to expect from the group’s latest studio album “REFLECTION”, and feel free to discuss the release in the comments.  Since frankly, I think this is the most excited I’ve been for a Mr.Children album in years, and I’d love to discuss it with more people.

The band have revealed that there will be two distinctly different release skews for “REFLECTION” that are set to include a range of different materials:  “REFLECTION {Drip}” and “REFLECTION {Naked}”.  “REFLECTION {Drip}” is a 14 track (67 minute) album that will be released in a Regular and Limited edition, the latter of which will include an hour-long Documentary DVD chronicling the release’s recording process.

“REFLECTION {Naked}” is the complete package, which will consist of a 23 track (111 minute) album stored on a USB stick (it includes the 14 tracks on {Drip} plus 9 additional songs), the Limited Edition version of “REFLECTION {Drip}”, an 80 page photobook, a 48 page booklet of original liner notes, all of which will be packaged in a box upon which there is a QR code that can be used to access the Demo versions of songs present on the album.  So… quite a lot of stuff honestly.

The track lists for each of the releases are actually in completely different orders, so I’ll be listing both of them below, as well as a few other key details about each specific variant of the album.
