sifow is a very unique artist, she brings some great new genres in to J-Pop. With 2 studio albums under her belt you would guess she’d get some more promotion this time, but as with her previous album “CLARITY” she got little promotion and appeared on very few variety shows, as a result the album failed to chart on the Oricon 300. sifow is also a spokeswoman for G-GAL revolution, a company consisting of journals and interviews to recreate a “fresh” image of ganguro gyarus, which could explain avex’s half hearted promotion of this album.
