Za Ninngenn will release their third CD single, featuring three tracks, on September 3rd.

This new release comes about a year and a half after their previous album Ginga Zekkyou, and it's packed with three songs bursting with originality that only Za Ninngenn can deliver. It's an intense and dense work that feels almost like listening to a full album.

Ahead of the physical release on September 3rd, the lead track will be available via digital streaming. This song is a high-energy, high-risk, high-reward upper tune that explodes with 200% powersound that is quintessentially Za Ninngenn.

Truly, the only ones who can boldly proclaim [We are the Champions]
might just be QUEEN and Za Ningnenn.
