Utada revealed the name of her new album, Fantôme ( means ghost in French) and the 11-songs track list. The album cover was also released.

Dead. Shiina is god.

I've barely listened to any of Shiina's music but I know how major this is regardless lol

 

I'm so hyped for this! I was excited for the 2 singles she released earlier this year but this album has finally made the fact that Hikki's back truly sink in ^^ I just hope it gets released on iTunes UK. Not all of her stuff is released there for some reason. *fingers crossed*

I can't wait for her new album but I loved the Sakura Nagashi track so far. I'm slowly loving the Utada/Ringo collab. I'm not feeling the other 4 songs I've heard so far.

I was fangirling about this album to my girlfriend and then the next thing I know she has sent me money to buy it!

I love those 2 tracks so far but I'm also not sure about the others ^^

Gah really? "Shōso Strip" is my favorite album out of Shiina's solo work (a MUST listen, made me a fan), and pretty much anything with Tokyo Jihen.

Nothing from the new album has made my jaw-drop yet, but there's a few tracks left, so hopefully she's saving the best for last.

The last thing that I heard from Ringo Shiina was Sanmon Gossip. I liked it. Her voice is a required taste though.

Did you guys buy her Fantôme? Utada tweeted being surprised that her album went to #1 in 6 countries. I should buy it soon.

I'm not gonna lie, I don't love the new record.

i can understand ^^ It's a great album but I think it's style is very specific. One reviewer said that despite how great it is it's her "least accessible album and honestly I agree. I personally do love it though ^^
