After 2 years and 8 months of waiting, Asian Kung-Fu Generation announce their 8th album titled Wonder Future, along with 4 live dates in Latin America.

Wonder Future will be released on Wednesday 27th May 2015, and will includes 11 songs. Among these songs, only two songs are already known: Easter and Standard.

Tracklist

  1. Easter / 復活祭
  2. Little Lennon / 小さなレノン
  3. Winner and Loser / 勝者と敗者
  4. Caterpillar / 芋虫
  5. Eternal Sunshine / 永遠の陽光
  6. Planet of the Apes / 猿の惑星
  7. Standard / スタンダード
  8. Wonder Future / ワンダーフューチャー
  9. Prisoner in a Frame / 額の中の囚人
  10. Signal on the Street / 街頭のシグナル
  11. Opera Glasses / オペラグラス

You will notice it is the first time the band is releasing an album fully made of songs which are named in English. It is really about the band wanting to export itself outside Japan.
Also, they are going to do 4 live concerts in Latin America.
