It's confirmed. Rie fu releases her first English language album on March 3rd. Amazon are now listing the release.

 

Born in Tokyo, Rie spent part of her childhood in the US and, more recently, three years in London studying for a fine arts degree. During that time she played a lot of small dates around London (pubs and clubs). She has had 3 albums and 10 singles released in Japan.

 

In December, Japanese music site Barks reported that an English language album would get a European release this spring. Rie fu's first European release album. It will be available in CD Only format to the UK through Pinnacle Entertainment on March 3rd 2008. It was originally intended to be released in Japan as well on March 5th, 2008 in both CD and First Press CD+DVD, but was postponed. The tracklists for the UK release will differ slightly from the Japanese version. Both Sides, Now is a cover of a Joni Mitchell song of the same name.

ooo fine arts degree, my mum got a 1st in that when she did hers.

 

The album cover though is ironically v.cheap looking.

 

I'll check this out for sure. Any idea if there'll be a single to lead this?

There doesn't look to be one yet, though the release is on a small indie label so they probably don't have funds to distribute/publish enough. Though videos are available - most of the songs are English editions of her singles/album tracks

Okay it seems that there won't be a lead single for the album, and unless stated all songs are in Japanese, which means only ''Decay'' is in English.

 

Good-bye any chance of commercial success...but I still cannot wait <3
