Nagoya-based kote kei visual kei band NETH PRIERE CAIN have unveiled their latest video ‘Igen no Aria’. The band have also introduced two new members, Daichi (guitar) and Maya (bass), becoming a 5-piece.
Starting abruptly, ‘Igen no Aria’ (‘Majestic Aria’) launches the listener into the band’s majestic world. The opening twin guitars from Syuri and Daichi create a floating, fluttery melody, matching the dream-like lyrics which allude to a butterfly or moth wanting to break free from its cocoon, hoping for a beautiful world.
Sparkling sound effects accent the track, lightening the tone, while the guitar solo carries a slight melancholy, heard too in frontman Itsuki’s voice throughout. Those sparkling motifs are seen in the video too, with fluttering glitter adorning various scenes of the band performing in and wandering through an opulent mansion and its gardens.
The video also serves as an official debut and welcome for new members, guitarist Daichi, and bassist Maya. Their joining was announced in November of 2025, on the band’s 7th anniversary during a live performance at Nagoya Bottom Line, and made official on February 2nd. Both members previously acted as support musicians.
‘Igen no Aria’ releases on CD on February 18th as part of the single ‘Uka no Shirase, Igen naru Eisho’. The single will include six songs, including ‘Igen no Aria’, two previously unreleased tracks, and four instrumentals. Additionally, the release will include a DVD with the music video, plus a randomly selected trading card.
Double River Record also released a behind-the-scenes video documenting the making of the music video earlier today on their YouTube channel.
