Japanese progressive-pop group ATARASHII GAKKO! have released their new music video for ‘Fly High’ alongside their 3rd full-length album, ‘AG! Calling’, through 88rising.

‘Fly High’, the opening track of ‘AG! Calling’, serves as the theme song for the Netflix anime film ‘Hanma Baki VS Kengan Ashura’. The music video shows the group performing in a boxing ring, transforming into swole versions of themselves through intense gym training, reflecting the song’s energetic theme.

Notable tracks include ‘Drama’, featuring Thailand rapper MILLI, and their January hit single ‘Toryanse’. The album represents a global invitation for listeners to join the group on their journey of escaping a dull, ordinary world by unapologetically embracing one’s authentic self.
