Their new album “MONSTER” was also released in Europe and Taiwan, showing that girugamesh is proactively trying to market themselves overseas. girugamesh has released a trailer video for the European tour using the song “Resolution.”

They have also released details about their best album. The release date will be March 26 and the title is “LIVE BEST.” However, it is not a live album. For these natural live performers, it is an album overflowing with lively motion in which listeners will be able to feel the band’s presence even on CD.

The best album will include tracks from their early days such as “Shadan” and “Omae ni Sasageru Minikui Koe” as well as previous singles and album tracks for a comprehensive selection of eighteen songs. The best album will feature upgraded and remixed tracks by the “new” girugamesh, who has gone through many transformations in their history as a band. The songs are meant to reproduce the feeling of their live performances. The first press will include a DVD with thirteen music videos, and the regular edition will include the track “Future” for a total of nineteen tracks.
