L’Arc-en-Ciel have launched their own record label, aptly named ‘L’Arc-en-Ciel’, aiming to achieve greater creative freedom while deepening their connection with fans.
Operating under the concept “More freedom with L’Arc”, the group hopes the label will help “L’Arc-en-Ciel continue to be loved by fans more than ever before.”
The label’s debut CD release, ‘YOU GOTTA RUN’, is set to drop on January 15th, 2025. Initially released digitally in October, the track serves as the opening theme for the anime BEYBLADE X. A music video for the single, filmed at Shibuya’s redeveloped Tokyu Department Store site, premiered on November 21st.
