Nothing of interest usually comes with the albums; it'll most likely be something that will only be in use if you live/are in Japan, such as an event ticket or whatnot.


And wow, there are so many errors in what Jpopasia posted lol

wew does anybody was in japan or live in japan now? i want the first press bonus if that will happen

They usually ship it out about 2 days before the release date. Depending on what shipping you choose is when you'll get your order. FedEx usually arrives by the actual release date while cheaper options such as SAL will arrive within 1-2 weeks.

I personally I think it's a waste of money to pay a lot more for shipping to get it sooner, imo :P

@phoenixnumber 1
I have used CDJapan for years.
They usually ship the order so you will get it by the release date for the country you live in.
For example it takes 3 to 4 days from Tokyo to London.

The times I've preordered from CDJapan, they typically shipped out the product a day before release. But since I'm across an ocean, it's about a week between ship and receipt if I go for the expensive shipping.

First press details for the regular edition:

★1 sticker included at random out of 5
★A flyer enclosed of an application for an album purchaser event on 9/30

Update on the DVD edition:

★「Almond Crush」MUSIC VIDEO
★「Dobondobondo」MUSIC VIDEO
★「Jacket photo shoot amusing making-of」
★「Enjoy 100 Times Taiyou Scandalous Dance」

Update on the photobook edition:

【A luxurious hardcover 72-page photo magazine】
★Photos
★Nippon Budokan live photos
★Spring tour secret document

Apparently there's only one "Enjoy 100 Times Taiyou Scandalous Dance" on the DVD version. I'm fairly certain it's the same short video, the one with the 2 comedians with one of them dancing to TaiScan with two girls, that they showed during the most recent Summit. They have the video up on the scandalSMEJ YouTube and it's titled exactly the same (「太陽スキャンダラス」を100倍楽しむダンス).


And here's a new promo photo from CLUB SCANDAL:

Wow!!! I cannot wait for this new album
.clap.

I'm so going to pre-order the album soon. I can't imagine how fantastic it will be.

Can't wait for the album!!!!

I like the line up with Welcome Home included.
I haven't heard Pin Heel Surfer yet but saw a picture in their outfit. They look so good.

I'm curious about "Kill the virgin". I guess this is something that can knock me off guard just like how they kicked it with Toukyou Skyscraper, Emotion, Cute!, Yumemiru Koro wo Sugite mo, and Welcome Home to name a few.

And two new music video for Almond Crush and Dobondobondo!

WHOA!!!..Most of the songs are written by the Girls!..
Must have..Haha, and RINA being the composer!...KYAAA!!!...

I'm SO excited with this album...

those pic are quite HD~ and as always~ they look incredibly CUTE~

Allreda Ordered :-D Limited eD. /w DVD

Gonna pre-order my Regular Edition of Queens are trumps album .happy.
+ just receive my BUDOKAN dvd today

i don't know if this has been asked already (sorry if it has), but what does kirifuda wa queen mean?

It is translated as "Queens are Trumps". SCANDAL's twitter account also use this translation. But, if you're asking what's the true meaning of the name, not the translation (as in, why they choose this name), I'm afraid I got nothing about that and I don't think SCANDAL has said anything about that yet

february-heavenly wrote:i don't know if this has been asked already (sorry if it has), but what does kirifuda wa queen mean?

Literally, "The trump card is a queen." It's basically the same meaning as the first half of the title, "Queens are trumps."

ah, i see; i didn't know if it was a different message or something.
thanks skywing-SM and thoseguiltyeyes for answering!

@sky I never know about that O.o

preview was awesome T.T

Preview of the first track, Queens are trumps (starts around 13:15):

Awesome!!!!! It rocks a lot!!! I´m more excited for the new album!!!

I would buy it, but I dont have enough money u.u

@thoseguiltyeyes, thanks for the find!

queens are trumps sounds amazing!
what a great opening track; that beginning guitar riff sounds sick!

i had a feeling that i should check scandal-heaven before i went to bed, now i know why. (i'm so excited, i don't even know if i'll be able to go to bed now.)

WOAH that was surprising its just a preview yet it was so rockingly good .... darn that's like listening to Queen(band) or Aerosmith or something.... it has an old rock feel

I guess that preview would take away all the doubts from PHS

Thanks for the share
