The musical art book "Magic Lantern" will be released on Wednesday, April 5, 2023.

YORUSHIKA 's latest work, "Gentou," is scheduled to be released on Wednesday, April 5, 2023.

"Magic Lantern" is the first work in about two years and two months since the EP "Creation."

This work is an art book.

The art book is made up of paintings by Takashi Kato, and when you point your smartphone or tablet camera at a picture in the book, it will read it and connect to a special music playback page.

Each work has a specific theme and is an "auditory art book" that depicts the work from two perspectives: music and art.

There are no plans for a CD release.

The artbook is scheduled to include a total of 25 songs.

The album will be available for download and subscription services and will consist of around 12 songs, mainly songs that have been released earlier.
