Macross 7's Fire Bomber to release first new single in 12 years

Written by Ross Locksley on 16 Aug 2024



To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Macross 7 band Fire Bomber, the group will release their first new single in 12 years, alongside a special edition vinyl LP of Ultra Fire!!, The Best of Fire Bomber.

From the official press release:
The new single will be titled “BURN! BURN! BURN!” The title track is an upbeat rock tune featuring a passionate exchange between Basara Nekki and Mylene Flare Jenius, designed to get listeners shouting along and pumped up. The single will also include new solo tracks from both Basara Nekki and Mylene Flare Jenius. The jacket will feature a new illustration by Haruhiko Mikimoto, the character designer of Macross 7. The initial production run will come with special packaging, so be sure to pre-order early.

 

Releasing on the same day, the Macross 7 ULTRA FIRE!! FIRE BOMBER BEST ALBUM will be available in vinyl format for the first time. The initial production will feature limited-edition colored vinyl. Disc 1 will be designed with a color scheme inspired by the VF-19 Custom Fire Valkyrie, while Disc 2 will feature a color scheme inspired by the VF-11 MAXL Custom Mylene Valkyrie. The large gatefold vinyl jacket will capture the passion and intensity of the album.

With Macross finally coming West this year, plenty of fans new and old can appreciate the intense rock-Goddery of Fire Bomber in both projects. Needless to say we have our copies ordered already, and would recommend CD Japan as a safe and affordable place to buy the album and single. Here's a handy couple of links to make life easier, because that's how WE rock!
