New Shiina Ringo Single + Album

The upcoming movie, Sakuran, features Anna Tsuchiya as a young girl in the Yoshiwara district of Edo-era Japan. Shiina Ringo is the Music Director. In the trailer, a new rendition of Tokyo Jihen's 'Yume no Ato' is featured.
On Friday, November. 11, 'Karisome Otome (DEATH JAZZ ver.)' - the theme song from the movie - will be released, only through online music stores. You can listen to a 45 second audio sample here: http://www.toshiba-emi.co.jp/app/scripts/access.php?cid=vd&id=ringo_dd00372&url=vmc/ringo/dd00372.wma The track is a special version of the theme song, pairing Shiina Ringo with SOIL & "PIMP" SESSIONS.
As well, there will be a new single + album coming out. Her new single will feature her brother, Shiina Junpei, in it as well. Hopefully there will be another single besides the one. Will Tokyo Jihen be involved? Time will only tell.
