SACRA MUSIC announces first ever vinyl for ClariS to be released exclusively in North America

ClariS, the renowned music duo leading the anime music industry, will release a US/Canada limited vinyl!

Sacra Music, a subsidiary label of Sony Music Entertainment (Japan) is announcing the release of ClariS 〜Single Best 1st〜 Vinyl Edition, a vinyl version of the previously released ClariS 〜Single Best 1st〜 .  The vinyl will be distributed exclusively by Tokyo Otaku Mode.  Pre-orders will begin starting at 10:00AM (JST) on November 16^th, 2018.

The original ClariS best hits album, ClariS 〜Single Best 1st〜  went on sale in 2015, featuring 14 tracks.  The new vinyl edition will include two bonus tracks, and will be sold as a 12-inch, 2-disc set.

ClariS 〜Single Best 1st〜 Vinyl Edition will be available for purchase exclusively in America and Canada. This project was created in response to the quickly growing anime marketplace in America, as evidenced by events such as Anime Expo 2018, America’s largest anime event which breaks its own record for highest number of participants every year.

The vinyl is a highly collectible medium that will deliver the music ClariS to listeners in North America.  Most of the tracks on the record are from animes that are popular worldwide.

In addition, a special ClariS booth will be exhibited at the Anime NYC convention taking place in November 2018, where participants can listen to the actual vinyl records.  The vinyl will also be available to pre-order via Tokyo Otaku Mode.  Everyone pre-ordering at Anime NYC will be eligible to receive a special event-limited ClariS sticker, so we highly recommend pre-ordering at the event.
