What "all unreleased songs" are you talking about? Well they will have songs like Brand New Wave and Weather Report it already for example.

^ I was meaning exactly them. I still hope for a collection album with the shiroten days song and I thought those two songs would take part of that ipotetical cd.
but it was pretty oblivious that, if they weren't on the single they would take part in the album right? ahah

Will there be a "First Press Edition" for this album for CDJapan?

Everytime until it's out of "first press edition"

LOL! one of the songs is named "Orange Juice"! I HATE Orange but I'm sure I'll LOVE the song!

Have you preordered when they didn't specifically say they had "first press edition" yet? And did you get it regardless?

I've already preordered albums/cd without "first press edition" and you will not receive goods which supposed to come with. For the moment, "first press edition" seems to be available so there is no problem.


As it's indicated above, if you want the bonus which comes with "first press edition", you have to order when it's indicated.
Otherwise, it becomes like this

and you won't receive goods if you order

In the past, I've pre-ordered before the "first press" button even showed up and I got the bonus(like with Awanai, I got the poster and sticker). I think you are guaranteed the first press bonus so long as you order when the "first press" button is there or before that. If you order when the "first press sold out" button is there, chances are that it will be like babaloued said. Although, I got lucky once and got a first press single two years after it's release(SCANDAL Nanka Buttobase) when the "first press sold out" button was there...but I think in that case, you only receive the bonus that comes inside the CD.

@topic
I can't decide which version to buy. I usually get the CD+DVD edition but the t-shirt edition is tempting. Although, since I don't know what the t-shirt will look like, I will probably stick with the CD+DVD edition for now.

Well, all of you are lucky to buy their album.. Very lucky =3 
I really do like the simplicity of this album. Simple yet attracting and cool.nice. 
They say the more simpler the more elegant haha

Looking forward to it ^^

wow MAMI composed several of the tracks! me liking this! .clap.

Very great indeed that at least one of the member composed something in the album even if it is only two tracks, they had proved by the past that they are able to compose songs by themselves!^_^
Same for the lyrics parts!

So that is "Standard" Lyrics, Composed and Arrangement all by SCANDAL members 

When I first read that STANDARD was composed, arranged and written by just SCANDAL, I thought that that was the 'standard' they were talking about for future releases... Like them writing, composing and arranging themselves. So this was the 'unnamed' song that was played a while ago... Interesting. Can't wait to hear it!

Somehow I knew Orange Juice was written by Tomo Normally, around the fifth song mark, it's a slow, ballad-like type. Eg. Bitter Chocolate, Burn and Namida no Regret. Wonder if they'll set out the tracklist differently this year... Ahhh October feels sooo far away~

I knew it! There's a reason why it's Standard .clap. I've been waiting for this, a song that's written, arranged, and composed by Scandal themselves.

I have high expectations for Hachigatsu, Namida yo Hikare and STANDARD!

But maybe in the end the others songs are gonna be even better so who knows =P Yeah lso had a feeling TIMO was involved in ORANGE JUICE lol

I hope that STANDARD (song) will be rockish, it's important if it's written by them. I mean it wouldn't be great news if that song was a fully pop song... Of course one song doesn't mean anything but still, written only by SCANDAL and name of their new album. There is some meaning in it, so hopefully it's a great rock song.

But seriously october seems so far away, I want to listen to it NOW! .whiteflag.

I think the song Hachigatsu (August) is something related to Scandal's formation or journey or something....

Yes I was thinking the same, especially now that we know HARU/MAMI worked on it. Also the month of HARU/RINA birthday so it's an important month for them. An we know it's a rockish song so I think it will be great!

I see that the girls have work hard for this Album it's will be great .wow.

wooooow!mami and haru behind a song!i'm really a fan of these two =) and also timo and rina in different aspects =) gotta love this yr=)

Awee ~ The releases is just one day before my birthday >_<
It could be my first scandal's album
thanks for share >_<

Nice, at least 3 songs are created mostly by SCANDAL themselves. I cannot wait for the album when ALL of their songs are made by them 100%

as usual I'm going to wait for an iTunes release.  poor college student ftw

yes! the girls are back with songwriting and composing .clap. i missed Timo's lyrics

If you are interested in getting a physical version for very cheap:

I got the limited edition DVD of the last album, Queens are Trumps, for $18 about 2 weeks after release. 

1. Some Hong Kong eBay sellers had the album in stock a few days after release for $28 free shipping.
2. If you use "Bill me Later" on eBay for the first time, they give you $10 back.
3. Buy album for $18
