"Dada" reached number one on Oricon's single charts, becoming Radwimps second single to do so since their debut. "Manifesto" did not appear on the album, and "Keitai Denwa" appeared as a re-arranged version.īefore the release of the album, the singles " Dada" and " Kyōshinshō" were released in January and February 2011.

Īll of the songs on the album are sung entirely in Japanese, except for a brief English phrase in "G-kōi." This is very different from the band's past albums, which generally feature a few entirely English language songs, and many with large sections sung in English. He experimented with hip-hop in "G-kōi" and jazz-style piano in "Pi". Noda felt that the album was free from many of the constraints in the band's previous work, and that it was a high-energy album. In Summer 2010, the album had begun to take shape, with most of the songs in a completed state. After the release of Altocolony no Teiri, Noda felt too cautious in writing lyrics, due to the perfection he had striven for in Altocolony no Teiri.
