Muzai Moratorium - Sheena Ringo

Release Date: February 24, 1999

Details:

Sheena Ringo's debut album, released in May 1998 following her single "Theory of Happiness." This is the work where she fully demonstrated her artistry as an album artist.

A groundbreaking first release that merges Taisho and Showa-era enka with punk rock, creating entirely new melodic structures paired with poetic lyrics exploring desire and eroticism. Characterized by hysterical guitar explosions and a commanding vocal delivery that captivates listeners. Both avant-garde and distinctly accessible, this album established Ringo as a leading female artist and spawned numerous followers.

Features the NTV "Downtown DX" ending theme "Kiss Here" and 10 additional tracks showcasing her signature eccentric sound and anarchic sensibility. Her provocative visual aesthetic—described as "Kabukicho-style"—became as iconic as her music.

Package Dimensions: 5.6 x 4.8 x 0.4 inches
