Some exciting and new developments have taken place with Matenrou Opera (摩天楼オペラ)! On August 1, the band announced it has begun operating independently of its former label Bellwood Records. Moreover, the group has established “ether corporation” as its new headquarters and renewed its website accordingly. Vocalist Sono, the founder, and president of the company took to Twitter to say this:

Today, Matenrou Opera became independent. When I started my solo project Unmei Kousaten, I also created my company with the idea that someday, it will also welcome Matenrou Opera. It went faster than planned, but I thought it was the perfect timing for the five of us to rise. From now on, please keep supporting Matenrou Opera! — Sono (苑)

In other good news, Matenrou Opera will further announce its independence to fans on August 5, during the online event, ONLINE Matenrou #1 -Things Will Get Better-, and hold an acoustic performance as well.
