TAKE: Our new song "Blood Pressure". I think it's a magnificent and danceable song with 80's anthem-like tune that shows the value of Attractions.
JUN: "Satisfaction". It's a song with interesting composition that creates a strong and unique personality.

TARO: "黄昏のサマー・ホリデイ" (Tasogare no Summer Holiday)" by Kuwata Keisuke!

Q.: Finally, do you have a message or is there anything you would like to share with our asianbeat readers?

TAKE: We're planning to release our second album this year, it's so cool that I'm sure you'll be surprised by it!
JUN: Please stay-tuned to Attractions!
AKIRA: There're so many to share so just keep following us!
TARO: In the song "Chain Reaction", we wrote about keep on being real to yourself in this digital age overflowing with information on social medias. It's kind of hard for me to express real thoughts and feelings without being influenced by others, but this song gives me a very good vibe as if I have been freed. Listen to our song and let's start the "chain reaction" and try to reset yourself. In addition, we've just released a new song "Blood Pressure". We didn’t plan to release this song as a single in the first place. But we just wish to bring hope to everyone by the song during this COVID-19 pandemic. Let's get over this hard time together with us and our songs!
